MiX by Powerfleet achieves ISO 27001 certification

Stellenbosch, South Africa – 2 August 2019 - MiX by Powerfleet (JSE: MIX, NYSE: MIXT) a leading global provider of fleet and mobile asset management solutions delivered as Software as a Service (SaaS), is proud to announce that it has been certified to the ISO/IEC 27001 international standard for information security management. This demonstrates MiX by Powerfleet’ strong commitment to protecting the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the information gathered, processed and provided to its customers.

The certification provides stakeholders with the assurance that MiX by Powerfleet has robust methods and processes in place to identify and mitigate risks relating to information systems management and security. Furthermore, the credibility of the ISO/IEC 27001 certification is enhanced through the use of BSI (British Standards Institution) as the certification body – a globally respected organisation.

The scope of the certification includes the development, provision, management and support of mobile asset information, products and services that are delivered via MiX’s SaaS platform.

In addition to the ISO 27001 certification, MiX by Powerfleet is also certified for ISO 9001:2015 (the international standard for quality management systems) which the company has maintained since first achieving it in 2003.

“We are incredibly proud of this achievement which took a lot of effort across multiple teams,” comments Catherine Lewis, Executive Vice President of Technology at MiX by Powerfleet.  “While some telematics companies leverage the certification of their cloud providers, few – if any – have achieved both ISO 27001 and ISO 9001 certifications for their own development and operations environments. We believe this places us in a fairly unique position in the industry” concludes Lewis.
