ISO 27001 is the international standard for Information Security Management Systems (ISMS). It centres around:
- Information security risk assessment and treatment
- Protection of information assets
- Security policies and governance
- Access control and user management
- Incident response and business continuity alignment
- Monitoring, auditing, and performance evaluation
- Continual improvement of the ISMS
An effective Information Security Management System provides a structured, risk-based framework for protecting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the information your organisation relies on.
