[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Gwan-joo] JVM announced on the 6th that it has obtained ISO27701 (Privacy Information Management System), an international standard established by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and certified by Lloyd's Register in the UK.

ISO27701 is the first international standard defining the requirements for privacy information management systems.
