ISO 27001:2013 is the international standard for Information Security Management. It provides a best practice framework for companies to comply with confidentiality, integrity and legal compliance, providing confidence that the appropriate controls and policies are in place to safeguard data. In achieving this standard, Assemble has now further validated its internal processes, software as a service solutions and technical support as well as effectively demonstrated its capabilities to sufficiently protect customer data.  

In order to achieve the ISO 27001 certification, companies must be able to demonstrate a systematic approach to protecting sensitive information such as intellectual property, employee and customer data and any other information entrusted to it by third parties. 

This is a wonderful and vitally important achievement. Assemble has always upheld the highest standards of internal compliance and security, so this recognition will formalise our ongoing commitment and give customers peace of mind that their data is in the best hands.

Meet James Vjestica, our ‘Digital Content Manager’ for the Not For Profit division. James has spent over 5 years working with software providers who supply specialist solutions that enhance the processes of organisations within niche sectors.

In addition to his technical experience, James has been affiliated with the Not For Profit sector at key stages of his career. This has included participating in a voluntary role at a local hospice prior to attending University, and upon graduating, accepting a role for a Social Enterprise in North Nottingham that supported members of the community to gain employment.

These roles highlighted the importance that organisations within the Not For Profit sector play, which has since inspired him to raise money for charity on several occasions.

At Access, James now draws on these experiences to consistently strategise content campaigns that will guide you through insightful journeys; clearly outlining pain points, how these obstacles can be tackled, and introducing viable solutions.
