Hello from becon, the team behind AI-powered personalized beauty and scalp care.
We have a big milestone to share. becon is now certified under two international ISO standards: ISO/IEC 27001 for information security and ISO/IEC 27701 for privacy information management.
In AI beauty tech, protecting your data matters as much as the technology itself. Here's what these certifications mean and why they matter for our partners and customers.
1. What are ISO 27001 and ISO 27701?
They're the most widely recognized international standards for information security and privacy.
🔒 ISO/IEC 27001 (Information Security Management)
- Checks whether a company has a real system in place to protect its data from leaks, hacking, and other incidents.
- Covers 93 security controls, including access control, physical security, encryption, and incident response.
👥 ISO/IEC 27701 (Privacy Information Management)
- Builds on ISO 27001 and focuses on protecting personally identifiable information (PII).
- Covers how personal data is handled at every stage: collection, processing, storage, and deletion.
💡 In short: Independent auditors have confirmed that becon's security systems (ISO 27001) and handling of personal data (ISO 27701) meet international standards.
2. Why security certification matters to becon
becon is built on data-driven beauty.
Our AI scanner takes high-resolution images of your skin and scalp and analyzes them to give you personalized recommendations. That means we handle sensitive images and personal data.
"What if my scalp or face photos get leaked?"
"Will putting this device in our stores cause problems with local privacy laws?"
These are fair questions from customers and partners. Saying "we're secure" isn't enough, so we went after independent, internationally recognized proof.
3. What this means for partners and users
① Faster onboarding for retail and B2B partners
Retailers, clinics, and salon groups in the US, Europe, and Japan run detailed security reviews before bringing in any third-party AI tool. These certifications answer many of those questions up front, which makes security reviews and onboarding faster.
② Your data is protected
When you use becon, your skin and scalp analysis data is encrypted and protected under audited security practices. You can get your personalized report without worrying about where your data goes.
③ Security that's checked every year
ISO certification isn't one and done. It requires an audit every year and a full recertification every three years. Keeping data secure is part of how becon operates every day, not a one-time badge.
4. Data-driven beauty, built on trust
Behind our AI analysis and easy-to-use design is a security foundation built to international standards.
We're more than an app or a new device. We're building an AI beauty platform that partners and customers can trust with their data.
