Information Security |
The ISO 27001 standard
was published in October 2005, essentially replacing the old
BS7799-2 standard. It is the specification for an ISMS, an
Information Security Management System
The objective of the standard itself is to "provide a model for
establishing, implementing, operating, monitoring, reviewing,
maintaining, and improving an Information Security Management
System". Regarding its adoption, this should be a strategic
decision. Further, "The design and implementation of an
organization's ISMS is influenced by their needs and objectives,
security requirements, the process employed and the size and
structure of the organization |
