What is ISO 27001 and why it is so important?

[KYCbench]

2018 looks like a big year for information security. With major questions being raised about cyber security initiatives such as the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) brought into effect in late May this year, International Organization for Standardization with ISO 27000 family of standards has come at just the right time. ISO 27001 is one of the most popular information security standards in the world, with certifications growing by more than 450% in the past ten years.

The ISO 27001:2013 (also known as BS EN 27001:2017) is the international standard which is recognised globally for managing risks to the security of information a company holds. This standard provides a framework for an Information Security Management Systems (ISMS) that enables the continued confidentiality, integrity and availability of information as well as legal compliance with regulations such as the European Union GDPR. The standard adopts a process based approach for establishing, implementing, operating, monitoring, maintaining, and improving the company’s ISMS. ISO 27001 certification is essential for protecting of the most vital assets. 

ISO 27001 implementation is also an ideal response to customer and legal requirements and potential security threats including:

•    Cyber crimes
•    Personal data breaches
•    Vandalism / terrorism
•    Fire / damage
•    Misuse
•    Theft
•    Viral attack
