BASSnet SaaS certified to ISO / IEC 27001 for cybersecurity

BASS Software, a provider of maritime fleet management solutions, has officially achieved ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification following an extensive audit by TÜV NORD CERT GmbH. This certification marks a milestone in BASS’s commitment to world-class cloud security and information governance.

ISO/IEC 27001 is the premier international standard for establishing, implementing, and continually improving an Information Security Management System (ISMS). As cybersecurity risks and regulatory demands intensify across the maritime sector, ship owners and managers are prioritizing independently verified security. This certification validates BASS’s rigorous approach to risk management and the protection of sensitive data across its BASSnet SaaS and BASSnet Neo cloud-native platforms.

“Information security is the backbone of resilient SaaS solutions for the maritime industry,” said Per Steinar Upsaker, CEO and Managing Director at BASS Software. “Achieving ISO/IEC 27001 certification reinforces our commitment to cybersecurity and operational excellence. This milestone strengthens BASS’s position as a trusted cloud technology partner for maritime organisations worldwide.”

The certification confirms that BASS has implemented clearly defined controls for data privacy, access management, and security oversight.

“Our customers can be confident that their data is protected within a certified and continuously monitored cloud environment,” added Wong Nyuk Lan, Vice President of Service & Support at BASS Software. “This reflects our proactive approach to managing information security risks as a trusted SaaS partner.”

BASSnet SaaS is further secured by layered controls, including Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), Security Information and Event Management (SIEM), and Web Application Firewalls (WAF). These measures ensure continuous protection and operational resilience as the global threat landscape evolves.
