K&S Partners has been awarded the prestigious ISO 27001:2022 certification, becoming one of the few law firms in India to achieve this milestone.
The certification is a globally recognized Information Security Management System (ISMS) Standard that outlines the best practices and requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving Information Security.
As custodians of highly confidential intellectual property data—innovations, trade secrets, and confidential data— implementing the ISO 27001:2022 framework provides a systematic and structured approach to managing sensitive company information, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the information assets. Additionally, the certification aligns with evolving regulatory standards, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and preparing for the implementation of India’s Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, which will set new standards for data privacy.
