Nordic iGaming platform provider, Finnplay, has earned the ISO 27001 Certification.  As a technology provider working exclusively with licensed operators in regulated markets, this was an important achievement for the company which will open access to new markets and simplify the certification and auditing process in existing ones.

The thorough certification process proved a valuable exercise  and  confirmed that Finnplay already had most of the necessary procedures in place but required only some additional standardisation and documentation to fully implement.

Finnplay’s Managing Director, Jaakko Soininen says, “With our regulated market approach, the ISO 27001 will help in all our ongoing certification processes.  ISO 27001 is a requirement for some markets where we can now enter and it will also be very helpful in expediting audits and re-certifications in our existing markets.  Most importantly the standardisation and professionalism needed to meet this criteria will help reinforce Finnplay’s key brand promise of trustworthiness and integrity.”
