Information Security Management System ( (JAS-ANZ Registered Certification)
What is it?
Information Security Management System (ISMS) is based on ISO/IEC 27001:2013.
What are the benefits?
Information drives business in today’s networked environment. Information includes data files on computer hard disks, paper, telephone conversations and mobile equipment. Having physical and technical security is the first step but is not enough with new threats occuring every day. In addition there are multiple regulatory requirements on security. Identifying the information security requirements and protecting the confidentiality, integrity & availability of business information is vital for business survival. At the same time, having too many controls may not be cost effective. Therefore an information security risk assessment followed by selection of appropriate controls strikes a balance between risks and controls to enable business growth.
An information security management system (ISMS) based on ISO/IEC 27001:2013 includes information security risk assessment, the selection of appropriate controls to
mitigate the risks to an acceptable level and the Plan-Do-Check-Act model for continual improvement of security processes.
