IFF Secures Elevates Global Trust in Data Security with New Certification

IFF, a global leader in flavors, fragrances, food ingredients, health and biosciences — has achieved ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification, the “gold standard” for information security management systems (ISMS).

The certification, awarded by leading cybersecurity firm A-LIGN, follows a rigorous audit in which IFF demonstrated exceptional maturity in its security practices, completing the process with zero major or minor non-conformities. The achievement reinforces IFF’s commitment to safeguarding customer data, intellectual property and operational integrity enterprise-wide, positioning the company as a trusted partner for customers in highly regulated industries.

“Achieving ISO 27001 certification sends a powerful message to our customers: Their data is protected by world-class security standards,” said Vic Verma, executive vice president, chief information officer at IFF. “This milestone reflects the strength of our systems and the culture of accountability we’ve built to earn and maintain customer trust.”

The certification spans IFF’s business units and core business functions — including legal, commercial, finance, procurement and human resources — and will play a critical role in strengthening customer partnerships, particularly in highly regulated industries such as food, beverage, personal care and pharmaceuticals, officials said.
