Certifications

ISO 9001:2015

In 2026, SSH achieved ISO 9001:2015 certification for Quality Management System.

ISO/IEC 27001:2022

In 2024, SSH achieved ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification for Information Security Management System, further demonstrating our focus on information security and responsible operations.

The ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification is the most widely used information security standard developed and published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).

The certification demonstrates that SSH proactively manages and protects information and assets and to ensure compliance with legal requirements related to information security. The certification covers SSH's global offices in Helsinki, New York, and Singapore.

PrivX FIPS 140-3

PrivX Just-in-Time Privileged Access Management (PAM) solution was one of the first PAMs to achieve Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-3 certification (SSH Communications Security Cryptographic Module #5020) through the Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP).

The CMVP aims to ensure that validated and FIPS compliant cryptographic modules are secure and reliable for use in government and contractor applications for enhanced data protection. Working with SSH-based solutions or cryptographic libraries that are government-facing or standards-driven, aligning with FIPS 140-3 can be crucial for compliance and market acceptance.

NQX TL-III

The National Cyber Security Authority (the body responsible for approving cryptographic products in Finland) at the Finnish Communications Regulatory Authority (Ficora) has certified the SSH NQX firewall and virtual private network (VPN) appliance as a cryptographic product for protecting classified information according to Finnish national (FI) TL III security requirements.

The SSH Helsinki facilities are Katakri (Finnish national security audit criteria) certified and audited.

NATO NCI-approved supplier

SSH Communications Security is an approved supplier for NATO’s NATO Communications and Information Agency (NCI). The purpose of the NCI Agency is to protect NATO, its communications and networks against cyber threats. The registration allows SSH and its solutions to be part of NCI Agency’s competitive procurements, opening brand-new market opportunities and a wider visibility for the company.
