ISO 27001

Give your customers confidence that you are managing any data, which is under your control and internally prescribe the business practices which the standard demands.

ISO 27001 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.

The key benefits of 27001 are:

  • It can act as the extension of the current quality system to include security
  • It provides an opportunity to identify and manage risks to key information and systems assets
  • Provides confidence and assurance to trading partners and clients; acts as a marketing tool
  • Allows an independent review and assurance to you on information security practices

A company may want to adopt ISO 27001 for the following reasons:

  • It is suitable for protecting critical and sensitive information
  • It provides a holistic, risk-based approach to secure information and compliance
  • Demonstrates credibility, trust, satisfaction and confidence with stakeholders, partners, citizens and customers
  • Demonstrates security status according to internationally accepted criteria
  • Creates a market differentiation due to prestige, image and external goodwill
  • If a company is certified once, it is accepted globally.
