Click4Assistance achieves FSQS certification
Click4Assistance has been awarded FSQS certification, which sets out standards for data handling and other factors.
Click4Assistance, an industry leader in live chat for small business, has recently achieved FSQS certification. This provides evidence that Click4Assistance is up to date with the regulations set out by the financial sector. Trusted within the financial community, the process of achieving certification is rigorous and touches upon various elements that are increasingly important to users in the 21st century, including cybersecurity, responsible business practices, and other factors that prove a company is trustworthy.
What Does This Mean?
Though we’d like to pretend that it isn’t the case, the truth is that there are always people out there looking to do businesses harm. And sometimes, they’re able to succeed. They rarely succeed because the company they take data from were in on the scam too. They succeeded because the company had digital vulnerabilities that allowed access to cybercriminals. FSQS is intended for a wide range of companies, including those that offer software to customers. If the company receives accreditation, then that says that they don’t have any vulnerabilities and that they’re handling data and other information in a secure and ethical way.
What Is FSQS?
FSQS stands for Financial Services Qualification System and was set up by various players in the financial services industry. The aim of FSQS was to reduce confusion and disparity between different measures of quality control. This type of accreditation shows that a company has been tested in a wide range of increasingly important elements, including:
- Information Security Management
- GDPR and Data Protection
- IT Security
- Fraud
- Sustainable Practices
- Business Continuity
- And More
Only companies that have proven they have safe and secure systems are awarded FSQS certification.
