Screening is part of your security programme
ISO 27001 expects background checks on everyone who gets access to your information (control 6.1, Screening), and auditors of regulated firms ask to see them. iSec's audits find the gap; iChek closes it.
Verification data is personal data under the DPDP Act, and iChek handles it under an ISO 27001 certified information security system.
