This comes as security problems continue to come at a high cost for enterprises. In a report called The Four Tenets Of SaaS Application Security And Protection, Forrester said: “Losing data in a SaaS application because of insufficient data protection is every CISO’s and compliance officer’s nightmare. Mitigation costs can exceed $3 million to $3.5 million per incident — and that’s a conservative estimate.”

“Traditional CMSs have a bad reputation for the security headaches they cause, and for good reason,” said Dominik Angerer, Co-Founder and CEO of Storyblok. “Getting the ISO 27001 certification was especially important to us because it ensures that any enterprise using Storyblok to share their content with the world is doing so on the most secure, enterprise-grade headless CMS available on the market.”
