WASHINGTON  – April 28, 2021

ShorePoint Inc., a cybersecurity services company that protects customers’ critical assets from cyber threats, today announced it has earned ISO 9001:2015 certification, demonstrating the ability to consistently provide services and solutions that meet customer and regulatory requirements.

Awarded by global certification body NQA, ISO 9001 is the internationally-recognized standard for Quality Management Systems (QMS). It is the most widely-used QMS standard in the world, with more than 1.1 million certificates issued to organizations in 178 countries.

ISO 9001 provides a framework and set of principles that ensure a common-sense approach to management that consistently satisfies customers and other stakeholders. “In simple terms,” said NQA, “it provides the basis for effective processes and effective people to deliver an effective product or service time after time.”

The standard follows the common structure provided by Annex SL. ISO 9001:2015 is more compatible with other management systems, such as ISO 14001, making it more effective and efficient to integrate management systems.

ShorePoint’s certification for ISO 9001:2015 demonstrates the company’s commitment to provide qualified and experienced personnel, ensuring the highest quality of cybersecurity consulting, professional, and technical support services. The company drives consistent project success by following a mission-first, risk-based approach to deliver enhanced cybersecurity services.
