Why is ISO/IEC 27001 important?
With cybercrime on the rise and new threats constantly emerging, it can seem difficult or even impossible to manage cyber-risks. ISO/IEC 27001 helps organisations 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.
ISO/IEC 27001 is an international standard for managing information security. It provides a systematic approach to securing sensitive information and includes various modules or components, typically structured around the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an Information Security Management System (ISMS). Here are the primary modules:
- Overview of ISO27001
- Understanding Information Security Management System (ISMS) Risk Assessment and Management
- Gap Analysis
- Controls Selection and Implementation of Security Policies and Procedures
- Security Awareness and Training
- Incident Response and Business Planning
- Supplier Management Monitoring, Measurement, and Performance Evaluation
