Presto Engineering announces ISO27001 certification

It establishes the highest standard framework to protect a company’s data and specifies how to interact with third party organisations in a secure manner across business processes.

“We are pleased to achieve one of the highest levels of security certification in the industry. In fact, Presto is one of the very few semiconductor ASIC design and production services globally that is ISO27001 certified,” said Cedric Mayor, CEO, Presto Engineering. “This certification process is very demanding, and it is a must for Presto because we integrate our customer’s crucial intellectual property (IP) circuit blocks in ASICs and operate all customer production fulfilment processes across a very complex supply chain.”

By reaching ISO27001 certification, organisations demonstrate to customers, partners, and shareholders that they have proactively implemented measures to safeguard data in the event of a cyber security breach. Organisations must establish a documented process for assessing risks and vulnerabilities; develop plans for mitigating those risks; implement controls to prevent unauthorised access, use, disclosure, modification, alteration, or destruction of data; monitor and report incidents; and more.

Mayor adds: “Through our proprietary OCEAN web-based platform, cyber security fences and certifications, we trace and protect our customers’ IP from the moment they hand over their project to us. We have raised the bar yet again to protect our customers’ data from external cyber security threats and potential sensitive intellectual property data beach. Presto is a unique ASIC design house that is able to co-design customers’ circuits – and guarantee secured and safe data management across the entire ASIC life cycle.”
