Based on a risk assessment, it is assessed whether the security is at an acceptable level or whether more safety measures should be implemented.

We have assessed the risk of working with IBC to the score 5 and below (on a scale to 25). A low risk of 5 or less can immediately be accepted by Exsecutivis management without additional actions. An ISO 27001:2013 certification at IBC is a contributing cause for the low risk.
