ISO 27001:2013 Information Security Management Systems.
The ISO 27001:2013 (also known as BS EN 27001:2017) standard provides a framework for an Information Security Management Systems (ISMS) that enables the continued confidentiality, integrity and availability of information as well as legal compliance. ISO 27001 certification is essential for protecting your most vital assets.
ISO 27001 implementation is an ideal response to customer and legal requirements such as the GDPR and potential security threats including:
- Cyber crime
- Personal data breaches
- Vandalism / terrorism
- Fire / damage
- Misuse
- Theft
- Viral attack
The ISO 27001 standard is also structured to be compatible with other management systems standards, such as ISO 9001 and it is technology and vendor neutral, which means it is completely independent of any IT platform. As such, all members of the company should be educated on what the standard means and how it applies throughout the organization.
