Certification is essentially "don't fuck up or we'll fine you to death" with extra steps. Especially because it mostly comes down to the company self-verifying (auditors mostly just verify you are following whatever you say you are following, not that its a good idea). Its not like anyone intentionally posts their entire DB to the internet.
