Create information security management systems that protect assets, comply with regulations, and build market trust.What is ISO/IEC 27001?
ISO/IEC 27001 is the leading international standard for information security management systems (ISMS). It offers a well-proven framework for companies to increase information security levels whilst improving cost-efficiencies. The scope of ISO/IEC 27001 is intended to cover all types of information, regardless of its form.
Organisations worldwide implement and maintain an ISMS to:
- Protect data that is crucial to the business
- Mitigate risk and ensure stable operations
- Provide confidence to stakeholders and customers
TÜV SÜD’s ISO/IEC 27001 certification service helps organisations to protect themselves against cyberattack
Why ISO/IEC 27001 is important
ISO/IEC 27001 is an internationally recognised standard, published by the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).
The standard specifies requirements for implementing and maintaining an effective ISMS that protects against information security risks. Its holistic approach to information security outlines a risk management process that involves people, processes and IT systems.
Organisations that achieve ISO/IEC 27001 certification are better able to protect themselves against cyberattacks. This helps to prevent unwanted access to sensitive or confidential information by:
- Ensuring stable operations – protect information confidentiality to ensure business data integrity and the availability of your IT systems.
- Creating trust – demonstrate to stakeholders and customers that you are maintaining the highest information security standards.
- Mitigating risk – reduce disruptions to critical processes and the financial losses associated with a breach.
