Mofco obtains ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification in Quebec

Mofco, a managed IT services provider based in Laval and Montreal, has received ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification for its information security management system. The certification gives Quebec businesses an independent validation of the company’s cybersecurity and data-protection practices.

Why it matters: - ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification gives Mofco an independent validation of its information security controls and governance. - Quebec businesses that rely on a managed service provider can use the certification as a signal that Mofco’s handling of data, access and operational risk follows a recognized framework. - The certification covers the managed IT services and IT consulting work that support clients’ infrastructure and cybersecurity needs.

What happened: - Mofco announced that it has obtained ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification. - The Laval- and Montreal-based company provides managed IT services, IT outsourcing, consulting services and cybersecurity. - DQS Inc. issued the certification after an audit confirmed Mofco’s management system met the standard’s requirements. - The certification took effect Oct. 1, 2026 and is valid through Sept. 30, 2029. - The certificate number is 31638211 ISMS22.

The details: - The certified scope includes managed IT services and information technology consulting services. - The scope also includes all personnel, business processes and information systems that support those activities. - Mofco says its services include IT support, Microsoft 365, Microsoft Azure, cloud infrastructure, workstation management, backup, disaster recovery and cybersecurity. - DQS also confirmed its evaluation team’s recommendation for certification within the defined scope. - Mofco works with small and midsize businesses and other organizations across Quebec. - The company serves clients in Montreal, Laval and elsewhere in the province. - Mofco’s stated service model combines managed IT services and cybersecurity in one offering.

Between the lines: - The certification moves Mofco’s security claims from marketing to a third-party assessed framework. - For a managed service provider, formal certification can matter because clients often grant access to sensitive systems, credentials and business data. - The ISO 27001 framework reaches beyond technical tools and includes access management, data protection, business continuity, supplier management, internal processes and risk management. - That broader scope can be a differentiator for Quebec businesses looking for one provider to handle both operations and security.

What's next: - Mofco will operate under the certified information security management system through the certificate’s validity period. - The company is positioning the certification as part of its integrated offer for managed IT, cloud services and cybersecurity. - Businesses evaluating a managed service provider in Quebec can now compare Mofco’s certified scope against their own security and governance requirements.

The bottom line: - Mofco has turned its cybersecurity posture into a formally certified part of its managed services business. That can reduce procurement friction for clients that need independent proof of security controls.
