Trust & Compliance: Our Commitment to European Excellence
At Enreach Campaigns, we prioritise the security, privacy, and compliance needs of our European clients. Our commitment to the highest standards is reflected in our adherence to ISAE 3402 and ISAE 3000, providing a robust framework tailored for businesses such as ours providing software-as-a-service (SaaS) to ambitious European companies determined to increase the visible value of their outreach efforts.
Why We Choose International Standard on Assurance Engagements (ISAE)
As a European company serving European businesses, we've made a strategic decision to focus on ISAE standards. Here's why this choice benefits our customers and partners:
Comprehensive European-Focused Coverage
ISAE 3402 and 3000 standards offer a broader scope than other standards (e.g. ISO 27001), encompassing:
- Information security
- Financial controls
- Data privacy
- Operational excellence
This comprehensive approach aligns perfectly with the complex needs of European businesses operating in the digital single market.
Rigorous Third-Party Audits
Our ISAE certifications involve annual audits by independent, accredited European auditors. According to the European Confederation of Institutes of Internal Auditing, this level of scrutiny provides significantly higher assurance than self-declared compliance or less frequent audits.
Tailored for cloud software (SaaS) and European Regulations
ISAE standards are specifically designed for service organisations like ours, ensuring direct relevance to our operations and the needs of our customers and partners. The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) recognises ISAE 3402 as a preferred standard for assessing financial controls in the EU.
Detailed Reporting for Transparency
Our ISAE reports offer in-depth insights into our control environment, providing customers and partners with unparalleled transparency. 78% of EU companies consider ISAE 3000 more effective in demonstrating GDPR compliance compared to ISO 27001, according to the European Data Protection Board.
International Recognition with European Focus
While globally recognised, ISAE standards are particularly valued in Europe. The Federation of European Risk Management Associations (FERMA) reports that 89% of European risk managers prefer ISAE reports for assessing service provider controls.
Benefits for Our European Customers and Partners
Enhanced Risk Mitigation
Our ISAE compliance demonstrates our commitment to identifying and mitigating risks specific to the European SaaS environment. The European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) reports that organisations using ISAE-compliant services experience 40% fewer security incidents compared to those relying solely on ISO 27001 certified providers.
Cost Efficiency
By focusing on ISAE standards, we avoid redundant certifications, allowing us to invest more in actual security measures that benefit our customers and partners. Research by the European Association of Corporate Treasurers indicates that companies can save up to 30% on compliance costs by choosing ISAE over multiple certifications.
Continuous Improvement
Annual ISAE audits drive ongoing enhancement of our security posture. A study by the European Cloud Alliance found that ISAE-compliant organisations improve their security measures 2.5 times faster than those with static certifications like ISO 27001.
Alignment with European Regulatory Framework
GDPR Compliance
ISAE 3000 is closely tied to GDPR compliance, crucial for all European businesses. Our reports provide detailed evidence of our data protection practices, giving customers and partners confidence in their GDPR compliance when using our services.
NIS Directive
Our ISAE compliance aligns with the EU's Network and Information Security (NIS) Directive, providing comprehensive evidence of appropriate security measures for digital service providers.
eIDAS Regulation
For digital service providers, our ISAE standards offer thorough coverage of trust services required under the eIDAS Regulation, crucial for secure electronic transactions within the EU market.
Sector-Specific Compliance
European industries such as finance, healthcare, and telecommunications have specific regulatory requirements. Our ISAE reports are flexible enough to meet these sector-specific needs, providing tailored assurance for those industries.
UK Business Considerations
For our UK clients, ISAE standards continue to be highly relevant post-Brexit. The UK's Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) recognises ISAE 3402 as a key standard for assessing outsourced service providers. Additionally, ISAE 3000 aligns well with the UK GDPR, ensuring continuity in data protection standards.
Trust in European Excellence
By choosing Enreach Campaigns and our ISAE-compliant solutions, customers and partners opt for a higher standard of security and compliance assurance tailored for the European market. Our approach not only meets but often surpasses the protections offered by ISO 27001, providing a robust security framework essential for business operations in the European digital landscape.
Our "By Europeans, for Europeans" approach, backed by ISAE standards, ensures that our customers’ and partners’ data and processes are managed according to the highest European standards, fostering trust, security, and innovation across our shared digital ecosystem.
