Synology Earns ISO 27001 Certification for Security
Synology ISO/IEC 27001 Certification Strengthens Enterprise Data Security
Synology has officially achieved ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification, one of the most respected international standards for information security management systems (ISMS). This certification demonstrates Synology’s commitment to protecting sensitive data, strengthening infrastructure security, and maintaining globally recognized security practices across its operations.
For organizations that rely on Synology storage platforms for backup, disaster recovery, and data management, this certification provides additional assurance that their systems operate under strict security standards designed to protect confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information.
As businesses increasingly depend on secure storage platforms to manage critical data, certifications like ISO/IEC 27001 play an important role in building trust and ensuring reliable data protection.
What ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Certification Means
ISO/IEC 27001:2022 is an internationally recognized security framework designed to help organizations manage and protect sensitive information. The certification requires companies to implement structured security controls and maintain a comprehensive Information Security Management System (ISMS).
The standard focuses on three major pillars of information security:
Confidentiality – ensuring that data is accessed only by authorized users
Integrity – protecting information from unauthorized changes
Availability – ensuring systems and data remain accessible when needed
Organizations that achieve ISO/IEC 27001 certification must demonstrate strong risk management, security governance, and continuous monitoring of their information systems.

Synology leadership emphasized that security and customer trust remain core priorities for the company.
According to Synology Chairman and CEO Philip Wong, security is a foundational principle guiding the company’s technology development and product design. Achieving ISO/IEC 27001 certification reflects Synology’s commitment to building secure infrastructure and protecting customer data.
The certification confirms that Synology follows internationally recognized security practices in areas such as system design, development processes, and operational management.
