ISO 27001 Implementation & Auditing

Overview

ISO 27001 is the international standard that sets out the specifications for an information security management system (ISMS). It helps organizations manage the security of assets such as financial information, intellectual property, employee details, or information entrusted by third parties. Implementing and auditing ISO 27001 ensures that your organization systematically examines its information security risks, takes account of the threats, vulnerabilities, and impacts, and designs and implements a coherent and comprehensive suite of information security controls.
