Singapore. TÜV SÜD PSB Pte Ltd has officially been accredited by the Singapore Accreditation Council (SAC) to certify organisations against the SS 714:2025 Data Protection Trustmark (DPTM). As an authorised Certification Body (CB), TÜV SÜD is now qualified to conduct SS 714 audits for organisations seeking to demonstrate robust data protection practices.
