The playout solutions and services provider upholds global security standards in broadcasting services, IT infrastructure and software development.
Skandha Media Services, a provider of scalable managed playout, broadcast and OTT services powered by cloud technology, automation, AI and machine learning, has announced its achievement of the ISO/IEC 27001-2022 certification.
This certification, awarded by the United Registrar of Systems (URS), recognises Skandha’s compliance with internationally recognised information security management standards. It applies to the company’s broadcasting services, IT infrastructure and software development operations, covering Skandha’s cloud instances, customer data and business processes, including IT and media operations.
As broadcasters and OTT platforms face increasing threats such as data breaches, piracy, and unauthorised access, security certifications like ISO 27001 have become crucial for cloud service providers. Skandha’s accreditation reinforces its commitment to maintaining the highest data security and regulatory compliance standards.

“It’s important that our customers know just how much we value global security standards, data protection and regulatory compliance – and ultimately that we’re a company they can trust with any project.”
The certification highlights Skandha’s ongoing efforts as a security-first organisation, with a focus on strengthening cloud security, enhancing access controls, refining risk mitigation strategies, improving employee security training and advancing cybersecurity protocols.
“I’d like to credit Skandha’s employees for their dedication to the ISO certification process, especially the heads of department who have shown unwavering determination to achieve this milestone. It’s a directive that benefits all our stakeholders and firmly positions Skandha as a trusted technology leader in secure, scalable, and AI-driven media innovation with security-first solutions.
