Diversified global manufacturer Milliken & Company recently completed the ISO 27001:2022 (ISO/IEC 27001) certification process for information security management systems (ISMS) as part of the company's commitment to data privacy and security. The ISO 27001 certification provides third-party verification of Milliken's ability to apply risk management processes to preserve data confidentiality, integrity and availability.
"ISO 27001 benchmarks our efforts against leading industry practices and signals to our stakeholders that we are committed to the highest levels of data security," states Milliken Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Information Officer David Smart. "Milliken is known for innovation and manufacturing excellence, and this certification affirms that our data practices demonstrate that same spirit of continuous improvement."

Milliken's data practices align with internationally recognized standard for information security management systems.
The ISO 27001 program promotes a holistic approach to information security that supports risk management, cyber-resilience and operational excellence. The standard requires an organization to implement comprehensive policies, procedures and controls that oversee all aspects of information security, such as risk assessment, access control, encryption, incident response and auditing. Schellman, the independent ANAB- and UKAS-accredited certification body, completed comprehensive audits of Milliken's organizational and technological controls over several months
