IEC/ISO 27001
IEC/ISO 27001 standard is a widely recognised standard for Information Security Management System published in October 2005, replacing the Old BS 7799-2 standard that addresses issues such as protection of the organisation's information assets, approach to risk management, and creating security policies and processes. It is a guarantee of efforts by an organisation to secure its information assets at all levels.
IEC/ISO 27001 standard compliance raises the credibility and confidence of partners, shareholders and customers, who are reassured when they see the importance accorded to protecting information by the service provider. Besides, IEC/ISO 27001 compliance reduces costs related to security violation, and secures the company's growth and success. The standard defines its 'process approach' as "The application of a system of processes within an organisation, together with the identification and interactions of these processes, and their management". It implements OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development) principles, governing security of information and network systems.
