This Certification explained ↓
What is UKAS Accredited and ICO approved Certification?
The UK Accreditation Service is the only body in the UK that can accredit. This means that ADISA has been assessed and accredited to provide certification processes of this standard, ensuring that we meet internationally recognised standards and are competent to perform the audit of the standard. The ICO is the UK’s independent authority set up to uphold information rights and data privacy. Certification schemes approved by the ICO help organisations demonstrate compliance with data protection laws, such as the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR).
What is a DIAL rating?
When disposing of old IT equipment, companies (the data controller) must handle data properly to avoid breaches. The ADISA ICT Asset Recovery Standard 8.0 introduces the Data Impact Assurance Levels (DIAL) to rate data risk and required protection. Factors include data type, volume, breach impact, and risk tolerance, resulting in a DIAL rating.
This rating guides the level of service needed from ITADs (the data processor) to ensure data safety and can be generated via ADISA’s web portal, which also provides a certificate.
