ISO/IEC 27001
What is ISO/IEC 27001?
ISO/IEC 27001 aims to ensure that adequate controls addressing
confidentiality, integrity and availability of information are in
place to safeguard the information of interested parties. These
include customers, employees, trading partners and the needs of
society in general.
Unprotected systems are vulnerable to all kinds of threats, such
as computer-assisted fraud, sabotage and viruses. These threats can
be internal or external, and both accidental or malicious. Breaches
in information security can allow vital information to be accessed,
stolen, corrupted or lost. How confident are you that your company
has the appropriate controls and procedures in place to avoid such
incidents?
An information security management system compliant to ISO/IEC
27001 can help you demonstrate to trading partners and customers
alike that you take information security seriously.
Benefits of ISO/IEC 27001
Accredited certification to ISO/IEC 27001 is a powerful
demonstration of an organisation's commitment in managing
information security and can offer some key benefits.
You will gain a competitive advantage as more companies require
certification to ISO/IEC 27001 as a prerequisite for doing
business. You will be able to make a public statement of capability
without revealing your security processes, and you can minimise
business risk by ensuring controls are in place to reduce the risk
of security threats and to avoid system weaknesses being
exploited.
An information security management system compliant to ISO/IEC
27001 can help you demonstrate to stakeholders alike that you take
information security seriously.
