Global Quality Services certifies Casterly Ventures Corp under ISO/IEC 27001:2022, strengthening the company’s information security posture across its Philippine operations.
MANILA, Philippines, April 28, 2025
Global Quality Services (GQS), a leading ISO certification and compliance consultancy operating across the Philippines and Southeast Asia, has successfully completed the ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification process for Casterly Ventures Corp. The certification confirms that Casterly Ventures Corp has established a fully operational Information Security Management System (ISMS) that meets the requirements of the internationally recognized standard governing information security governance, risk management, and control.
ISO/IEC 27001 is adopted by organizations in over 150 countries as the definitive framework for managing information security risk. Certification requires organizations to identify and treat risks to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information assets, implement a structured set of controls across people, processes, and technology, and demonstrate commitment to continual improvement through internal audits and management review.
The certification process for Casterly Ventures Corp was conducted through GQS’s structured two-stage audit methodology. Stage one involved a thorough review of documentation and a readiness assessment of the company’s ISMS, including its risk assessment framework, Statement of Applicability, and security policies. Stage two comprised a full conformity audit against the ISO/IEC 27001:2022 control requirements across the organization’s applicable operations. Casterly Ventures Corp completed both stages successfully, with the audit team confirming that the ISMS was effectively implemented and consistently maintained across the assessed scope.
“Casterly Ventures Corp approached this certification with a level of organizational commitment that made a measurable difference in the outcome,” said Shakti Garg, Lead Consultant, Global Quality Services. “Their internal teams demonstrated strong ownership of the ISMS from the outset, which is what separates organizations that achieve certification from those that simply comply on paper.”
Raymond A. Samia, CEO of Casterly Ventures Corp, said: “Global Quality Services provided exceptional expertise and guidance throughout this process. Their strategic approach, technical knowledge, and commitment to quality made the entire process seamless. We truly value their partnership.”
For Philippine organizations, the significance of ISO 27001 certification extends beyond international credibility. Under the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act 10173), personal information controllers are legally required to implement reasonable and appropriate security measures to protect personal data. ISO 27001 provides a structured, auditable framework that directly supports compliance with these obligations, reducing regulatory exposure and strengthening client and partner confidence.
The certification is valid for three years and is subject to annual surveillance audits conducted by GQS to verify ongoing conformance and continuous improvement of the ISMS.
