OneKey Achieves ISO/IEC 27001 Certification

Conversations about security in the crypto space often start with technical details.

How private keys are generated.
Whether the hardware chip meets a high security grade.
Whether the app includes risk alerts or phishing detection.

All of this is important.

But what determines whether a wallet can remain secure over time is rarely a single technical detail. It is the way the entire team does its work every day.

This year, OneKey achieved ISO/IEC 27001 certification for its information security management system.

The certification is not about what features a product offers. It examines whether a team has the ability to consistently make the right decisions around security.

It is less interested in a well-written compliance document and more focused on how the organization actually operates.

Why a crypto wallet must treat security as an organizational responsibility

A wallet occupies a unique position.

Users entrust you with their assets while expecting that you never have control over them.

This creates a high bar. The product itself must be secure, and the organization that supports it cannot afford operational mistakes.

In reality, many incidents in the industry do not originate from a failed algorithm or a flawed implementation.
They often start with gaps in coordination. A change that was not reviewed carefully. A release that went out without the usual checks. An external service that kept running without a proper process.

These issues never appear in the interface, yet they can be far more damaging than a single technical vulnerability.

A wallet team therefore has to answer a deeper question.

It is not whether the product includes security features, but whether the organization is able to see risks early and handle them properly.

Security becomes part of the team’s daily work rather than the responsibility of a single department.

What ISO/IEC 27001 really expects is a way of working

The framework seldom focuses on dramatic technical requirements.

It looks at whether a company has built a culture where important work follows a disciplined and consistent process.

A change that moves from proposal to review and then to deployment should leave a clear trail.

A team member should be able to understand the background of a decision even if they were not there when it was made.

Processes should continue to function even when someone is away.

Signals of unusual activity should be noticed early rather than after something has already gone wrong.

These practices may appear ordinary, but they are what keep a company running securely for the long term.
Without these basic capabilities, even the best technical design cannot stay reliable over time.

What OneKey worked on over the past year

Over the past year we invested heavily in the parts of the system that users never see.They are not new screens or new product features, yet they shape how OneKey operates underneath.

We made decision-making more transparent.
We ensured that important changes can be traced and understood.
We shortened communication paths and clarified responsibility so that critical tasks do not depend on a single engineer.

Many things that used to rely on personal experience have become standardized processes.
What used to be recommendations have become requirements.

The outside world may not notice these changes because they happen inside the organization.They are the reason OneKey was able to meet the requirements of the certification.

What matters to users is not the certificate itself

When you use OneKey, you are not experiencing the internal procedures or the documentation behind them.What you feel is the result of a system that keeps the work stable and controlled.

Creating a wallet, interacting with assets, receiving alerts, or updating to a new version all depend on this system.

It reduces the chance of mistakes, makes risks more visible, and aligns the entire team around a shared expectation of what secure work looks like.

Your experience becomes more reliable not because the technology suddenly changed, but because the team behind the product approaches security with greater discipline.

For us, this is only the beginning

The certification is a milestone, but its real value lies in what it allowed us to build.It helped us create an internal foundation for continuous learning, review, and improvement.

Open source gives transparency.
Hardware provides physical security boundaries.
Risk detection makes interactions safer.
ISO/IEC 27001 strengthens the organizational structure that supports all of this.

Security is not something that is completed once a certificate is obtained.It is a continuous effort that requires attention every day.

OneKey will keep investing in this work, even if most of it remains out of sight.
