ISO/IEC 27001

ISO/IEC 27001 is the world's best-known standard for information security management systems (ISMS). It defines requirements an ISMS must meet.

The ISO/IEC 27001 standard provides companies of any size and from all sectors of activity with guidance for establishing, implementing, maintaining and continually improving an information security management system.

Conformity with ISO/IEC 27001 means that an organization or business has put in place a system to manage risks related to the security of data owned or handled by the company, and that this system respects all the best practices and principles enshrined in this International Standard.

Why is ISO/IEC 27001 important?

With cyber-crime on the rise and new threats constantly emerging, it can seem difficult or even impossible to manage cyber-risks. ISO/IEC 27001 helps organizations become risk-aware and proactively identify and address weaknesses.

ISO/IEC 27001 promotes a holistic approach to information security: vetting people, policies and technology. An information security management system implemented according to this standard is a tool for risk management, cyber-resilience and operational excellence.

Benefits

•   Resilience to cyber-attacks
•  Preparedness for new threats
•  Data integrity, confidentiality and availability
•  Security across all supports
•  Organization-wide protection
•  Cost savings 

1. Confidentiality
   → Meaning: Only the right people can access the information held by the organization.
   ⚠ Risk example: Criminals get hold of your clients’ login details and sell them on the Darknet.
2. Information integrity
   → Meaning: Data that the organization uses to pursue its business or keeps safe for others is reliably stored and not erased or damaged.
   ⚠ Risk example: A staff member accidentally deletes a row in a file during processing.
3. Availability of data:
   → Meaning: The organization and its clients can access the information whenever it is necessary so that business purposes and customer expectations are satisfied.
   ⚠ Risk example: Your enterprise database goes offline because of server problems and insufficient backup.

An information security management system that meets the requirements of ISO/IEC 27001 preserves the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information by applying a risk management process and gives confidence to interested parties that risks are adequately managed.

• Reduce your vulnerability to the growing threat of cyber-attacks
• Respond to evolving security risks
• Ensure that assets such as financial statements, intellectual property, employee data and information entrusted by third parties remain undamaged, confidential, and available as needed
• Provide a centrally managed framework that secures all information in one place
• Prepare people, processes and technology throughout your organization to face technology-based risks and other threats
• Secure information in all forms, including paper-based, cloud-based and digital data
• Save money by increasing efficiency and reducing expenses for ineffective defence technology
