What is ISO 27001 compliance?
ISO 27001 is the leading international standard for an Information Security Management System (ISMS). It was published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in partnership with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).
The goal of ISO 27001 and an Information Security Management System is to protect three aspects of information:
- Confidentiality: only authorized users have the right to access information.
- Integrity: only authorized users can change the information.
- Availability: the information must be accessible to authorized users whenever it is needed.
ISO 27001 is the most widely adopted international information security standard and provides a comprehensive framework with 14 phases that helps organizations develop and maintain a secure ISMS:
- Information Security Policy
- Organization of Information Security
- Risk Assessment and Treatment
- Asset Management
- Access Control
- Cryptography
- Physical Security
- Operations Security
- Communications Security
- System Acquisition, Development and Maintenance
- Supplier Relationships
- Compliance with Legal Requirements and Industry Standards
- Information Quality Management
- Risk Monitoring and Review
