Syncfy achieves excellence in cybersecurity and in the development of solutions and services, essential for expansion in Latin America.

Receiving the ISO 27001 certification gives Syncfy an additional advantage to attract new customers in the financial sector who have policies and procedures that guarantee the protection of their financial information.

“The ISO 27001 certification allows us to be prepared to react even faster and meet the needs of our customers under a maximum security standard”, Gerardo Treviño, founder and CEO of Syncfy.

Syncfy, the leading Open Finance platform in Latin America, announced that it achieved ISO 27001 certification, which is the international standard that allows the assurance, confidentiality and integrity of data and information, for its financial data management products and services.

Since its founding, the company has always ensured the protection of financial data, developing its technology in accordance with the Zero Trust Model to ensure that data is always safe and protected at every stage of the information lifecycle. 

With this certification, Syncfy reaffirms its commitment to the best security practices of the financial services industry, and it is emblematic of its philosophy of excellence in the development of Open Finance solutions, something that has been fundamental to boosting its growth and expansion in the region.  

Syncfy is constantly updating and implementing policies and procedures to assess risks and quickly implement the necessary measures to mitigate or eliminate them. This not only protects data but also generates greater trust between users, customers, suppliers, and employees. 

Accordingly, Syncfy can establish a closer synergy with customers and suppliers through more robust security mechanisms to ensure that they comply with the highest cybersecurity standards and regulations.

Trigger for expansion in the LATAM market

Syncfy currently operates in Mexico, Colombia, and Argentina, and is expanding to new markets throughout Latin America. The ISO 27001 certification gives the company  an additional competitive advantage to attract new customers, such as banks and fintechs, who seek to collaborate with companies that provide Open Finance and Open Banking services and have policies and procedures that guarantee that their financial data will always be protected.

The fact that Syncfy fully complies with the standard will also pave the way for obtaining other certifications in areas such as cloud data management and protection, compliance with privacy policies and data management. In the same way, lays the foundation for compliance with regulations related to information security that fintechs must adhere to in the future.  

ISO 27001 places Syncfy in a leadership position and as an example to follow for companies and allies with which it works, which will see the adoption of the best cybersecurity practices as a competitive advantage. At the same time, it promotes a value-added chain that permeates this ecosystem and confirms Synfcy’s commitment to the Open Finance industry.
