EQS-Media / 16.03.2026 / 13:54 CET/CEST LAIQON receives ISO 27001 certificationTÜV Rheinland certifies information security management system of LAIQON AG and LAIC subgroup Hamburg, 16 March 2026 LAIQON AG and the LAIC subgroup have been certified to ISO 27001 by TÜV Rheinland. The independent audit documents compliance with clearly defined policies, processes and control mechanisms designed to protect sensitive data and business-critical processes. Information security is an integral part of the business model and a key trust factor for customers, partners and investors, particularly in a sensitive and highly regulated environment such as the financial sector. ISO 27001 is an internationally recognised standard for information security management systems (ISMS). It defines binding requirements for the establishment, implementation, maintenance and continuous improvement of an ISMS in order to ensure the long-term confidentiality, integrity and availability of information. The standard is based on a risk-based approach that covers both digital and physical information. The certification is the result of a technological and organisational transformation at LAIQON that has been consistently pursued since 2021. Central to this effort was the development of the Digital Asset Platform 4.0 (DAP 4.0), a cloud-based, highly integrated and scalable IT platform that now forms the technological backbone of the entire Group. Since 2021, LAIQON has unified previously fragmented IT landscapes, fully migrated them to secure and elastic cloud infrastructures, and, in parallel, established an ISO 27001-compliant ISMS that meets regulatory requirements. This ISMS is based on clearly defined policies and processes for managing information security. The effectiveness of this structured and rule-based approach was confirmed in 2025 through the audits required by the standard. An internal audit conducted with external support was followed by the external certification audit by TÜV Rheinland in the fourth quarter of 2025. The official certificate handover took place on 13 March at LAIQON's headquarter in Hamburg. Ralph Freude, Head of businessline ict at TÜV Rheinland, presented the ISO certificate to Dipl.-Ing. Achim Plate, Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Dr Claas Müller-Lankenau, Division Executive and Chief Technology Officer (CTO), and Raik Czosnowski, IT Project ...
