Business Radar Renews ISO/IEC 27001 Certification, Marking Three Years of Certified Information Security

Amsterdam, the Netherlands, June 2026Business Radar, the AI-powered company risk intelligence platform for adverse media screening, compliance monitoring, and third-party risk management, today announced the successful renewal of its ISO/IEC 27001 certification, the internationally recognised standard for information security management systems.Business Radar first achieved ISO 27001 certification three years ago and has maintained it continuously since, passing annual surveillance audits and now a full recertification audit conducted by an independent, accredited certification body. Where an initial certification demonstrates that strong security controls exist, a successful recertification after three years demonstrates something harder to earn: that those controls have been operating, monitored, and improved consistently over time.The renewal provides continued independent validation of Business Radar’s structured approach to identifying, managing, and improving information security controls. It reinforces the assurance Business Radar provides to the banks, insurers, and compliance and risk teams across regulated industries that rely on its platform and API to screen and monitor company portfolios for adverse media, sanctions, and other critical risk signals.

"Our clients trust us with sensitive portfolios and high-stakes compliance decisions, and that trust has to be re-earned continuously, not claimed once. Renewing our ISO 27001 certification after three years of continuous compliance confirms that security isn't a milestone we passed; it's how we operate every day."

Bart, CTO at Business Radar

Business Radar’s security practices extend across its infrastructure, operations, and AI governance. All client data is hosted entirely within the EU, processed in line with the GDPR, and protected through strict access controls, continuous monitoring, and enterprise-grade platform features such as SSO and role-based permissions. These safeguards underpin Business Radar’s broader commitment to explainable, auditable, and responsibly governed AI across its risk intelligence workflows.

"Recertification is in many ways a tougher test than the original audit, because it examines three years of evidence, not a snapshot," Machielsen added. "Passing it validates the everyday culture of data protection our team has built, and our clients benefit from that discipline in every alert we deliver."

Business Radar will maintain its certification through ongoing control testing, continuous improvement, and future surveillance audits. The renewal complements the company’s broader investment in secure EU-based infrastructure, GDPR compliance, and regulatory-aligned documentation for clients operating in supervised environments.
