Information Security Risk Management for ISO 27001 / ISO 27002 - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Protect your information assets with effective risk management

In today’s information economy, the development, exploitation and protection of information and associated assets are key to the long-term competitiveness and survival of corporations and entire economies. The protection of information and associated assets – information security – is therefore overtaking physical asset protection as a fundamental corporate governance responsibility. 

Information security management system requirements

ISO 27000, which provides an overview for the family of international standards for information security, states that “An organisation needs to undertake the following steps in establishing, monitoring, maintaining and improving its ISMS […] assess information security risks and treat information security risks”. The requirements for an ISMS are specified in ISO 27001. Under this standard, a risk assessment must be carried out to inform the selection of security controls, making risk assessment the core competence of information security management and a critical corporate discipline.

Plan and carry out a risk assessment to protect your information
