Barco, a world leader in control room solutions, is proud to announce it was granted the ISO/IEC 27001 certification. This important standard on information security, cybersecurity and privacy protection, defines the requirements an Information Security Management System (ISMS) must meet.

Barco Control Rooms will be present at the Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) tradeshow in Barcelona from 30 January – 2 February, where the company will showcase their secure solutions on booth 2M100.


Operating in high-security markets, Barco’s Control Rooms business unit is extremely focused on cybersecurity. With requirements always becoming more stringent, the ISO/IEC 27001 standard is the most prominent guide for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an information management system. The certification is granted for Barco’s video wall solutions and control room software (Barco CTRL). At this year’s ISE tradeshow, Barco CTRL will be highlighted along with the award-winning TruePix direct-view LED and Barco UniSee II LCD video wall technology. These flagship solutions reflect the overarching ‘Empowering control room excellence’ message.

“At Barco, we have a long legacy of working in very secure environments,”

says Mathieu Dobbeleir, VP Products and Solutions at Barco.

“Control rooms in the utilities, government and airport markets, to name a few, operate in very high levels of (cyber)security. Not every manufacturer can comply with the needed standards. This ISO 27001 certification adds the trust that customers need: it not only proves the security of our processes, but also emphasizes our commitment to our customers’ security. We are very pleased with this achievement that further positions Barco as a trustworthy partner.”
