Information Security Management System formally specifies a management system that is intended to bring information security under explicit management control. Being a formal specification means that it mandates specific requirements. Organizations that claim to have adopted ISO/IEC 27001 can therefore be formally audited and certified compliant with the standard. ISO/IEC 27001 requires that management:

• Systematically examines the organization’s information security risks, taking account of the threats, vulnerabilities, and impacts.

• Designs and implements a coherent and comprehensive suite of information security controls and/or other forms of risk treatment (such as risk avoidance or risk transfer) to address those risks that are deemed unacceptable.

• Adopts an overarching management process to ensure that the information security controls continue to meet the organization’s information security needs on an on-going basis

The ISO 27002 is the industry standard security framework that covers the critical domains of information security. This includes:

Your organization is required to be governed by a set of security policies and procedures for all employees to follow. Most companies have defined a set of policies that are too generic or not robust to cover all aspects of security. We provides a complete security policy review service to ensure an organizations security policies cover all facets of security, including the most recent threats that can reflect changes in technology, new fraud schemes and other violations that must be addressed. Or, if your organization has not yet established a policy, allow us to work with your organization to develop a set of security policies that accurately aligns with the business needs of your organization:

Having an Information Security policy is simply not enough to manage the risk of an employee compromising sensitive data or an incident occurrence. The policy must include specific requirements and responsibilities.
