This latest certification, which strengthens our longstanding commitment to protecting information, marks a major advancement from the previous ISO\/IEC 27001:2013 standard they attained as part of their digital transformation journey.<\/p>\n
According to CIMAS, in the process of becoming the first medical services provider in Zimbabwe to accomplish such a milestone.<\/p>\n
Cimas Health Group\u2019s Chief Executive Officer, Vuli Ndlovu, said confidentiality, integrity, and operational excellence are central to how Cimas Health Group operates.<\/p>\n
Ndlovu noted that the new ISO\/IEC 27001:2022 certification reflects Cimas Health Group\u2019s alignment with internationally recognised standards and demonstrates the Group\u2019s dedication to robust information security management.<\/p>\n
\u201cTo achieve the updated certification, we continued to implement significant upgrades to our information technology infrastructure and enhanced various security processes, including staff training, risk assessments, and governance frameworks.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese improvements were thoroughly reviewed and verified through a rigorous audit conducted by the Standards Association of Zimbabwe at our Head Office located at Borrowdale Office Park, Harare. \u201c<\/p>\n
He said the new ISO\/IEC 27001:2022 certification confirms that Cimas Health Group operates a world-class Information Security Management System designed to protect the security, integrity, and confidentiality of members’ and clients\u2019 information.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs we continue to follow international best practices to minimise cybersecurity risks, we have established comprehensive cyber-incident detection, response, and management processes to effectively monitor and address potential threats.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur Information Security Management System (ISMS) not only governs how we manage and protect technology-related information but also guides how our people and internal processes securely handle members\u2019 and patients’ data.<\/p>\n
\u201cUltimately, this new certification provides reassurance to all our Cimas members, partners, and stakeholders that their sensitive information is handled and protected in line with globally recognised information security standards.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe value the private, confidential, and privileged information entrusted to us, and we have implemented rigorous control measures to ensure it remains fully protected,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
