Consequently, the distributor’s customers can be assured that it has the necessary processes in place to protect the security, privacy and availability of its data, systems and products, which are 100% authorised from over 1,200 manufacturers of semiconductors and electronic components.
Determined to follow the highest data security standards, Mouser has said that it is dedicated to managing cyber security and minimising risks through its comprehensive Information Security Management System (ISMS).
Registration to these gold standards lets customers and manufacturers know that Mouser is fully committed to protecting their information.
"Mouser's SOC2 Type2, ISO 27001 Stage 2, and Cyber Essentials certifications are a testament to our unwavering commitment to security and compliance," said Raju Shah, Senior Vice President of Information Services at Mouser Electronics. "We are excited to have met and surpassed these standards, and we will continue to invest in the best practices and technologies to ensure the safety of our customers' and manufacturers' data."
SOC2, ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials are a set of domestic and international standards that support the requirements for an ISMS. This framework helps organisations manage their cyber security risks and includes policies, processes, and controls designed to protect information assets from threats.
To be certified in these frameworks, Mouser had to meet all rigorous requirements laid out in the standards. This includes developing and implementing an information security policy, establishing risk management processes, identifying risks, implementing controls to mitigate risks, and more measures.
Mouser achieved these certifications through five independent assessments in 2023 and will undergo periodic reassessments to maintain these top certifications.
