Halborn Achieves ISO/IEC 27001 Certification and NIST CSF 2.0 Alignment

Institutional adoption rarely breaks because teams cannot write security policies. It breaks when security is not executed as an operating system: repeatable controls, governance that holds up under scrutiny, and evidence that the program works continuously, not just when an audit is coming. 

Halborn has reached a major internal milestone on that front. The company has recently achieved ISO/IEC 27001 certification and has been attested as aligned with NIST CSF 2.0. Halborn also maintains its SOC 2 Type II certification, reinforcing that the firm’s security program is both structured at the organizational level and demonstrably effective in practice. 

Together, these credentials demonstrate that Halborn runs its own security and governance program with the same discipline it expects from financial institutions and regulated entities building in DLT and Web3 environments. 

For regulated institutions, security claims are not persuasive without external validation. These milestones provide that validation across three complementary dimensions: control effectiveness over time, organizational security management, and framework-level alignment that is recognizable to auditors and regulators. 

SOC 2 Type II evaluates whether an organization’s controls are designed appropriately and operate effectively over a sustained period, rather than as a point-in-time assessment. 

For Halborn, SOC 2 Type II certification demonstrates that critical operational controls function consistently under real operating conditions. This includes the practices institutional stakeholders expect to see when evaluating risk: access governance, change management, monitoring, incident readiness, and the supporting evidence trail that demonstrates reliability. 

ISO/IEC 27001 is the global standard for implementing and maintaining an Information Security Management System, or ISMS. Certification confirms that security is embedded at an organizational level through structured governance, executive accountability, and continuous risk management. 

For Halborn’s customers, ISO/IEC 27001 certification signals that the company’s security posture is not dependent on ad hoc decision-making. It is anchored in an auditable management system designed to adapt as threats, products, and operational complexity evolve. 

NIST CSF 2.0 is one of the most widely used cybersecurity frameworks across banks, regulators, and critical infrastructure organizations. Halborn’s attestation of alignment indicates that its security program maps directly to this framework, translating internal practices into a model that institutional stakeholders already use to assess maturity and third-party risk. 

This alignment is especially relevant for enterprises that need vendor programs to map cleanly to existing governance, audit, and regulatory expectations. 

Being SOC 2 Type II certified, ISO/IEC 27001 certified, and attested as aligned with NIST CSF 2.0 means Halborn operates with the same security, governance, and regulatory discipline it expects from financial institutions operating in DLT and Web3. 

SOC 2 Type II provides evidence that controls work consistently in real operating conditions. ISO/IEC 27001 confirms that security is embedded at the organizational level through a formal ISMS, with executive accountability and continuous risk management. NIST CSF 2.0 alignment demonstrates that Halborn’s security program maps directly to the framework used by regulators, banks, and critical infrastructure globally. 

Together, these credentials show that Halborn is not only advising on financial-grade security. Halborn is operating at an institutional standard and earning the credibility required to secure and guide the most regulated digital-asset environments.
