PRLog (Press Release)– Jun 03, 2011– Fairfax, VA – GAITS, a leading information technology contractor to the Federal Government, recently passed its ISO 27000 re-certification with a 99 percent compliance rating. Information Security is a GAITS core competency. "This is a key practice area for us," says GAITS Chairman Tony Asefi. "Cyber attacks are more frequent than ever, and are growing more sophisticated by the day. GAITS ISO 27000 certification assures our Government and commercial customers that we have the knowledgeable staff, proven best practices, and leading-edge technology to effectively protect their information assets."
With cyber attacks and "cyber warfare" posing an ever increasing risk to national security, GAITS expects the Federal Government will adopt ISO 27000 certification as a requirement for contractors working on most IT related contracts. Much as ISO 9000 quality management certification has become a ubiquitous requirement within Federal procurements, GAITS staff believes ISO 27000 is applicable to a broad range of programs, not just those focused exclusively on Information Security.
