Regulations and Requirements
What is ISO 27001?
ISO 27001 Information Security Management Systems (ISMS) is the international best practice standard for information security. The ISO standards were presented in 2005 but were later revised in 2013. ISO 27001 provides a set of standardized requirements for an information security management system (ISMS). This certification is appropriate for any organization of any size and sector. This standard is highly relevant for organizations handling high volumes of data and with companies requiring critical protection of their information from the following industries: financial, health, government, data centers, and IT outsourcing. With over a dozen standards within the ISO family, ISO 27001 is the most common and the most pertinent for providing requirements regarding an Information Security Management System (ISMS).
What is an ISMS?
An Information Security Management System is one method to help protect your sensitive data. That sensitive data may include financial, medical, internal employee, and third party data. Your ISMS involves more than just data, it factors in the people, processes, and technology through a risk management process. The end goal of the ISMS is to help organizations maintain a secure data environment.
The Importance of Having ISO 27001 Compliance
ISO 27001 isn’t mandated like some other popular compliance. By handling personal identifiable information (PII), it is an added benefit to your security and reputation. An ISO certification shows you, your customers, and your business partners that you prioritize protecting your data.
