Case Study: Global Financial Technology Company achieves ISO 27001 & 27002 certification in 6 months with Reciprocity's ZenGRC

Achieving ISO 27001 and 27002 Certification with ZenGRC

Global Financial Technology Company, a publicly traded, cloud-based fintech with thousands of employees and a global footprint, faced a new law requiring ISO 27001 and 27002 certification within one year. The company had never self-audited and was managing compliance with spreadsheets, leaving its security risk and audit team unable to scale. To meet the deadline they engaged Reciprocity and its ZenGRC platform.

Reciprocity deployed ZenGRC (cloud-based, quick to set up) to automate evidence collection, streamline audits, centralize risk and vendor workflows, and provide single-source dashboards—users were up to speed in about three weeks. With Reciprocity’s solution and guidance the company achieved ISO 27001 and 27002 certification in six months (vs. the typical three years), realized measurable efficiency gains, eliminated spreadsheet-driven errors, unified ISO and SOC workflows, and freed staff time to support rapid customer growth (nearly doubling its customer base).
