Hi.
In Britain we would say:
'All of the information is correct' or 'The information is correct.' (The information that we are talking about)
'All information' does not specify which information you are referring to.
Please note:
Information is 'uncountable'.
In english uncountable things do not have a plural. They are always singular.
So. With uncountable nouns we can use the following:
The.... uncountable noun is.....
This...
That....
But not:
A ..... uncountable noun is.....
These.... uncountable noun are.....
Here are some other uncountable nouns - nouns without a plural form.
music, art, love, happiness, advice, news, furniture, luggage, rice, sugar, butter, water, electricity.
Examples.
I like many different types of music. - not musics
Many people gave me advice about this subject. - not advices
I lost all of my luggage at the airport. - not luggages

"Information" is uncountable, so you cannot use it in the plural.

All information is correct.
is = singular
are = plural
It's that easy!
