Ardova Plc, a leading integrated energy company in Nigeria, has been awarded the internationally recognised ISO 27001:2022 Certification, affirming its strong commitment to information security, data protection, and global best practices in corporate governance.
The ISO 27001:2022 standard is the world’s foremost framework for Information Security Management Systems (ISMS). Ardova Plc’s certification follows an extensive and rigorous audit that evaluated its information security policies, internal processes, risk management structures, and technical controls across the organisation.
The certification process was driven by Ardova’s Technology and Digital Department under the leadership of Mr. Kamil Adebumola, with professional guidance from Cyberstage Systems Ltd, an accredited ISO consulting and certification firm. The multi-phase assessment involved system reviews and enhancements across all departments responsible for managing sensitive customer and employee data.
The certificate was formally presented during a brief ceremony at Ardova Plc’s headquarters in Lagos. The event was attended by the Managing Director, Group Financial Controller, Head of Digital and Analytics, and designated ISO Champions drawn from key business units involved in information governance and data protection.
Speaking at the presentation, Mr. Moshood Olajide, Managing Director of Ardova Plc, described the achievement as a strategic milestone for the company.
“This certification underscores Ardova Plc’s unwavering commitment to the highest standards of information security, risk management, and regulatory compliance,” Olajide said. “It is not merely about meeting compliance requirements; it reflects our dedication to trust, resilience, and operational excellence. Achieving ISO 27001 reassures our customers, partners, and stakeholders that we align with global best practices and are well prepared for the future of digital operations.”
He added that information security remains central to Ardova’s business strategy, particularly as the company continues to leverage technology and digital transformation to improve efficiency and service delivery.
The ISO 27001:2022 Certification positions Ardova Plc as a trusted organisation with a robust framework for identifying, managing, and mitigating information security risks. It also reinforces the company’s ability to safeguard the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of critical data in an increasingly digital and interconnected business environment.
Industry observers say the certification further strengthens Ardova Plc’s reputation as a forward-looking energy company committed to operational excellence, innovation, and adherence to international standards.
The achievement marks another significant step in Ardova Plc’s journey toward global best practices in governance, compliance, and sustainable business operations.
