NITA Gets Three ISO Certificates At A Go

Ghana's ICT industry regulator, National Information innovation Agency (NITA) has been presented with three ISO certificates at a go for its prowess in the areas of information security, business continuity, and IT service management.

The presentation was jointly done by Deloitte Ghana and the external auditors of NITA, A4S at a cocktail event in Accra to bring the curtains down on the maiden National ICT Week which happened between Monday, August 26 and Friday, August 30, 2024.

The three certificates were ISO 20000:2018 for IT Service Management, ISO 22301:2019 for Business Continuity, and ISO 27001:2022 for Information Security, which is a new one and the first of its kind to be presented to a public sector institution in Ghana.

It took months of rigorous assessment for the certification bodies to ascertain that NITA had the right frameworks, support systems, policies and practices that are sustainable to qualify them for the ISO Certifications.
