The National Bank of Georgia has successfully completed the ISO 27001 certification process, marking its compliance with the globally recognized standard for information security management. This achievement represents the fourth time the NBG has been awarded this prestigious certification. 

For over a decade, the NBG has dedicated significant efforts to aligning with and enhancing international information security management standards. The institution places paramount importance on safeguarding the availability, confidentiality, and integrity of information. 

“Ensuring information security on a global scale is a significant challenge today. As the manager of critical business systems, the National Bank of Georgia must implement secure business operations, which directly enhances the reliability of banking services,” stated Natia Turnava, Acting Governor of the National Bank of Georgia. “This year, the NBG successfully met the updated requirements of ISO/IEC 27001:2022. Compliance with this standard is crucial not only for the NBG as a central institution but also for the overall development of the financial sector.” 

The audit process, which assessed the NBG’s information security management system against the international standard, involved both Georgian and international companies. The certification was issued by TÜV SÜD Management Service GmbH, a renowned German certification body.
