In March, following an external audit by Baltum Bureau, Kevuru Games successfully passed the ISO 27001:2022 certification in information security, cybersecurity, and privacy protection, confirming its information security management system meets the world’s leading standard for protecting client data and business communications. The certification formalizes security practices the studio already follows on every project.
Why Information Security Matters in Game Outsourcing
Game development outsourcing is a creative industry, and just like many other creative industries, it often experiences risks related to differences between what people call “creativity” and what they call “real business”. There are lots of confidential documents that are shared between partners, such as source assets, technical documentation, production roadmaps, and other intellectual property protected by NDAs. The bigger the projects you’re working, the more important the protection of this information is.
Information security must be embedded into every workflow. Each company claims that its security standards are reliable, and there are ways of finding out if those claims are true.
ISO 27001:2022 is the latest version of ISO 27001, the world’s best-known standard for information security management systems (ISMS). With the ISO/IEC 27001 certification, Kevuru Games confirms that business transactions and information exchanges are securely protected.
What ISO 27001 Means for Our Clients
For clients, ISO 27001 certification is more than a compliance badge. It demonstrates that information security is managed through documented processes that reduce operational and business risks throughout the project lifecycle.
In practical terms, this includes:
- controlled access to project files based on employee roles and responsibilities;
- secure handling of confidential materials covered by NDAs;
- documented procedures for onboarding and offboarding team members;
- continuous risk assessment and security monitoring;
- incident response procedures designed to detect, report, and mitigate potential security events;
- regular reviews and continuous improvement of the information security management system.
About ISO
ISO is an independent, non-governmental international organization promoting global standards for trusted goods and services. International standards show that the products and services you use are safe and of high quality. The ISO/IEC 27001 standard is mandatory for businesses as it guides how to design, implement, maintain, and continuously improve information security management systems.
What Does ISO 27001:2022 Cover?
The ISO/IEC 27001:2022 standard defines how organizations establish, operate, maintain, and continuously improve an Information Security Management System (ISMS).
At Kevuru Games, the certification covers the company’s Information Security Management System supporting the delivery of game development and digital production services. Compliance was independently verified through an external audit conducted by Baltum Bureau, an accredited certification body.
As game development projects become increasingly collaborative and distributed, information security has become a competitive advantage rather than simply a compliance requirement. Kevuru Games remains committed to continuously improving its security practices while delivering reliable game development and art outsourcing services to partners worldwide.
