What is ISO/IEC 27001?
Digitized data is essential for everyday life in the 21st Century. Cyberattacks and breaches of digitized data are frequently increasing, posing a risk to businesses, institutions, and consumers. This can lead to fraud and impose a high price on the people affected. Cyberattacks on critical infrastructure elements like power plants could cause major cities and towns to be unable to function.
Enterprises of any size can have effective information security management (ISMS) to protect themselves from cyberattacks and other data breaches. This standard ISO/IEC 27001, Information security management system gives a framework for developing, implementing, and maintaining such a management system. An important step in an organization's efforts to protect its IT infrastructure and secure digital data is the ISO/IEC 27001 certification. This whitepaper discusses the history and structure of ISO/ IEC 27001 and highlights the potential benefits.
