Following an exhaustive audit process, an independent third-party agency and certification body awarded the accreditation.
The certification is a testament to Ushur’s unwavering dedication to the highest standards of information security management—especially important to its customers in highly regulated industries such as financial services, insurance and healthcare.

We continue to acquire third-party and industry-standard security validations of the Ushur platform so our users can rest assured that their data remains confidential and protected at all times. Because ISO meticulously evaluates our security management systems, this certification further demonstrates Ushur’s steadfast dedication to the safety of protected health information (PHI) and personally identifiable information (PII).”
