When it comes to keeping information assets secure, organizations can rely on the ISO/IEC 27000 family.
ISO/IEC 27001 is
widely known, providing requirements for an information security management system (ISMS), though there are more than a dozen standards in the ISO/IEC 27000 family.
Using them enables organizations of any kind to manage the security of assets such as financial information, intellectual property, employee details or information entrusted by third parties.
ISO 27001 certification demonstrates that your organization has invested in the people, processes, and technology (e.g. tools and systems) to protect your organization’s data and provides an independent, expert assessment of whether your data is sufficiently protected.
Certification
is achieved through an accredited certification body, and provides evidence
to your consumers, investors, and other interested parties that you are managing information security according to international best practice.
ISO 27001 compliance is becoming increasingly important
as regulatory requirements (such as the GDPR, HIPAA, and CCPA) place pressure on organizations to protect their consumer and personal data.
