Samsung Electronics Receives ISO 27001 and 27701 Certifications for VXT, MagicINFO and LYNK Cloud Systems

Leading certifications affirm the exceptional safety and security standards of Samsung’s digital signage content management systems

Samsung Electronics, the global number one digital signage provider for 14 consecutive years,¹ today announced that it has achieved ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and ISO/IEC 27701:2019 certifications from the British Standards Institution (BSI) for its digital signage content management systems (CMSs). The three systems awarded with the certifications are the Samsung Visual eXperience Transformation (VXT) platform, MagicINFO™ and LYNK Cloud™.

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 is the leading standard for Information Security Management Systems (ISMSs), which defines the various requirements that an ISMS needs to meet. As an extension of the 27001 standard, ISO/IEC 27701:2019 specifies requirements and provides guidance for establishing, maintaining and improving a Privacy Information Management System (PIMS) within the context of an organization.
