Your files contain some of your most important information. Financial records. Contracts. Travel documents. Years of personal work.
Keeping that information secure isn't a feature we add. It's part of how we build Documents. That's why we're happy to share an important milestone: Readdle, the company behind Documents, is now ISO/IEC 27001 certified.
What is ISO 27001?
ISO/IEC 27001 is the international standard for information security management.
It defines how organizations identify and manage security risks. The standard covers more than technology. It also includes the people, processes, and policies that help keep information secure.

To become certified, an organization must undergo an independent audit. The audit verifies that security controls are in place and are followed across the business.
ISO 27001 covers areas such as:
- Information security policies and risk management
- Access controls and identity management
- Secure software development
- Incident response and business continuity
- Employee security training and awareness
- Physical security for offices and equipment
- Monitoring, vulnerability management, and continuous improvement
For Documents users, this means our security practices are based on an internationally recognized framework and are regularly reviewed.
What this means for Documents
Documents helps you manage files from your device, cloud storage, network drives, and external disks. Some of those files are personal. Others are critical for work.
ISO 27001 certification doesn't change how you use the app. It confirms that we follow recognized security practices.
We assess risks. We protect customer information. We control access to internal systems. We regularly review and improve our processes.
Introducing the Readdle Trust Center
We're also launching the Readdle Trust Center.
It's a single place where customers, IT teams, and businesses can learn more about our security program, compliance certifications, privacy practices, and the measures we take to protect customer data.
As more professionals rely on Documents for work, we believe this information should be easy to find, not hidden behind a support request.
Visit trust.readdle.com to learn more.

Why this matters
People trust Documents with files they can't afford to lose or expose. That trust matters.
So ISO 27001 certification is one way we demonstrate it. It also shows our commitment to protecting your data.
We'll keep improving Documents. We'll keep strengthening our security practices. And we'll keep earning your trust. So you can focus on your files with confidence.
