At Security & Vetting Solutions, our accreditations are central to everything we do. We are pleased to announce that we have successfully passed our annual external BSI accreditation audit for ISO 9001 quality management with flying colours.

The audit resulted in no non-conformances or advisories, highlighting the strength of our quality management systems and our robust approach to data protection.


Why Security & Vetting Solutions Accreditations Matter

We take data security seriously. In a vetting environment, trust, accuracy and compliance are essential.

Can a vetting company prove that this is at the forefront of everything?

Yes – through recognised third-party accreditations and certifications.

This is why Security & Vetting Solutions invests time, resources and expertise in maintaining industry-recognised standards. These accreditations give our clients confidence that their data and reputations are in safe hands.

Although we have over 20 years of experience and work with large organisations, we never stand still. Continuous improvements sits at the heart of our business.


Our Key Accreditations and Certificates

ISO 27001:2022– Information Security Management

We hold UKAS-accredited ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification for our information security and IT systems.

ISO 27001 is the international standard for information security management systems (ISMS). It requires organisations to actively manage risk and protect sensitive information.

This certification confirms that we:

  • Protect personal and client data
  • Manage information security risks effectively
  • Continuously improve our security controls

Our ISMS covers people, processes and technology, ensuring that best-practice information security is embedded across the business

Cyber Essentials protects organisations against the most common cyber threats, including:

  • Phishing attacks
  • Malware
  • Ransomware
  • Password-guessing attacks

ISO 9001:2015- Quality Management

Our UKAS-accredited, ISO 9001:2015 certification demonstrates our commitment to quality and consistency.

ISO 9001 focuses on customer satisfaction, regulatory compliance and continual improvement. Through regular audits, we prove that our services meet both client and legal requirements.

This certification underpins everything we do, from candidate screening to client communication.


SSAIB Membership and BS7858 Screening

We are a certified member of the Security Systems and Alarms Inspection Board (SSAIB), which is approved by Security Industry Authority (SIA).

The SSAIB is a leading certification body for security services across the UK. Our BS7858 security screening accreditation has moved from BSI to the SSAIB following internal changes at BSI.

Because the SSAIB itself is accredited by UKAS, this confirms that we deliver screening services to the highest industry standards.


A Proven Commitment to Excellence

Thanks to the professionalism and diligence of our team, we continuously maintain and improve our accreditations.

These certifications are not badges for display. They represent daily commitment, rigorous processes and accountability at every level of our organisation.

When we say Security & Vetting Solutions is dependable, compliant and secure, our accreditations back it up.
