AQCLab presents the article "Assessing data cybersecurity using ISO/IEC 25012" in the special edition of Software Quality Journal regarding Quality Management for Information Systems. This article presents the data cybersecurity assessment model based on the ISO/IEC 25000 family of standards developed by the laboratory.

Due to the growing importance of data as the main driver of value in companies, data quality and, specifically, data security are of the utmost importance. Because of this, AQCLab has complemented its data quality evaluation model with the definition of a framework for the evaluation of cybersecurity specifically focused on data. In turn, this framework complements and aligns with other existing standards and models which focus on management systems and security infrastructures.

This evaluation framework establishes the basis for certification of data cybersecurity, which will reinforce other certifiable data and security-related standards such as ISO 27001 and ISO 8000.
