TLDR: Sydney-based software provider Trendspek has achieved four critical certifications – SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001, ISO 27701, and ISO 9001 – becoming the first Australian company in its class to hold all four. This significant accomplishment comes as the technology sector faces an escalating wave of AI-generated cybersecurity threats, reinforcing Trendspek’s commitment to robust security, privacy, and quality management.
In a strategic move to bolster digital trust and resilience against an evolving threat landscape, Trendspek, a Sydney-based provider of 3D Structural Lifecycle Management software, has successfully achieved four key certifications: SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001, ISO 27701, and ISO 9001. This makes Trendspek the first Australian company in its specific class to hold all four accreditations, underscoring its proactive approach to cybersecurity and data integrity.
The achievement is particularly timely given the rapid proliferation of artificial intelligence (AI) and its dual role in both advancing technology and escalating cyber threats. The year 2025 has seen widespread adoption of generative AI across large enterprises, which, while enhancing operations, has also given rise to more sophisticated and complex cybersecurity challenges. Reports from CyberSecurityNews highlight a significant increase in AI-supported social engineering attacks, including deepfakes and voice cloning, enabling attackers to convincingly impersonate executives and circumvent traditional verification processes. Furthermore, generative AI tools are now being used to create automated malware, increasing the efficiency and stealth of cyber-attacks. The looming prospect of quantum computing also threatens to render traditional encryption methods obsolete, placing sensitive business data at heightened risk.
In response to these formidable challenges, compliance standards like SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO certifications are gaining critical prominence. These standards serve as essential benchmarks for best practices in information security, privacy, and operational quality, offering vital assurance to clients and partners amidst rising threats.
Trendspek, founded in 2018, has consistently prioritized compliance, undertaking annual audits of its platform and processes to uphold internationally recognized standards. The company’s ISO 27701 certification, specifically focused on privacy and data protection, distinguishes it as one of the first in its sector to achieve this accreditation. The latest recertification encompasses SOC 2 Type 2 (evaluating controls related to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy over a defined period), ISO 27001 (information security management), ISO 27701 (privacy and personal data protection), and ISO 9001 (quality management).
Mitch Deam, Co-Founder and Chief Compliance Officer at Trendspek, emphasized the foundational role of security within the company. “Our re-attestation is more than a compliance measure. It’s continuing proof of Trendspek embedding security at the core of everything we do – from how we operate, to how we make decisions, to how we serve our customers. This consistency is what builds lasting trust.” Deam further noted that for businesses, re-attestation provides tangible confirmation of operational maturity and a reliable safeguard for sensitive data over successive years, moving beyond mere symbolic value.
