Comply with the ISO standard for information security?

ISO 27001 helps your organization develop a proactive approach to protecting information. Consider internal and external threats, both physical and online. In addition, ISO 27001 provides the following benefits:

• Protection against incidents, such as a data breach
• Tender benefits
• Show customers and suppliers that your organization takes information security seriously
• Comply with laws and regulations, such as the AVG
• Understanding and controlling security risks

‍

ISO 27001 is required or strongly recommended in many cases, especially in government procurement and collaborations with large parties. It helps streamline business processes around information security and make risks manageable. Like ISO 9001, the quality management standard, ISO 27001 demonstrates that your organization meets rigorous international standards.

‍

ISO 27001 is the international standard for information security and is the basis for protecting confidential information within your organization. This standard contains a set of requirements focused on the availability, integrity and confidentiality (BIV) of information. It provides a structured approach to managing and securing business sensitive data, both internally and externally.

‍

In addition to ISO 27001, there is also ISO 27002, an additional guideline that provides best practices for applying the ISO 27001 standard. The difference between ISO 27001 and ISO 27002 is mainly in the nature of the documents: ISO 27001 is mandatory for certification, while ISO 27002 serves as a guide for implementation.
