RETN: Protecting Data Security

As RETN has transitioned from ISO 27001:2017 to ISO 27001:2022 certification, underscoring its commitment to exceptional performance, we reaffirm our dedication to maintaining the highest standards of security across the company’s extensive network.

Frameworks like ISO, GDPR, and NIS2 provide an important foundation. "NIS2 sets a higher standard for risk management, breach reporting, and transparency, which aligns with our focus on building a resilient leading global network," says Tony O’Sullivan, CEO of RETN. "For us, compliance is part of a much larger commitment to keeping our network safe and our customers’ data protected.”

In a world where cyber-attacks grow more sophisticated every day, customers expect Network Service Providers and Internet Service Providers not only to deliver connectivity but also to act as a first line of defence for their data. The stakes are high. This shift in expectations means we don’t treat regulatory frameworks as simple checklists. Instead, we see them as guidelines that push us to do more.

“With a 30% rise in global cyberattacks this year alone, the need for proactive measures has never been greater. Our engineers continuously test our systems and protocols against real-world scenarios,” explains Romans Scugarevs, IT Director at RETN. “Our security measures include advanced threat detection systems, AI-powered anomaly detection, and encrypted communication protocols to ensure data integrity and confidentiality. Identifying and mitigating risks before they impact service requires deep technical understanding and constant network improvements. We’re always on the lookout for new threats so we can prevent unauthorised access and protect customer data.”

Compliance frameworks will evolve, but our core commitment remains the same: safeguarding customer data at every stage of its journey. At RETN, our goal is to meet and exceed these standards, providing network services that stand strong against both current and future threats.
