ISO 27001

Every day, your organisation is surrounded by a wide variety of confidential information and data which have to be protected against the growing threat from cyber attacks and data theft. Responsible handing of information is therefore more important than ever, and the aspects of confidentiality, availability and integrity are becoming increasingly significant.

A well-functioning information security management system (ISMS) supports your organisation in closing loopholes within the IT structures and minimising data security risks. The criteria for establishment, implementation, operation, surveillance and continuous improvement of a documented ISMS are defined by the globally recognised ISO 27001 Standard.

With certification according to ISO 27001, you can provide objective and credible evidence of the effectiveness of your information security management system (ISMS), as the globally recognised standard defines the requirements for establishment, implementation, documentation and improvement of an ISMS. Existing risks for your organisation are identified, analysed and then eliminated based on effective and appropriate measures. This means you can protect your confidential data and improve the integrity and availability of your IT systems.

Here’s how ISO/IEC 27001 will benefit your organization: 

• Secure information in all forms, including paper-based, cloud-based and digital data 
• Increase resilience to cyber-attacks 
• Provide a centrally managed framework that secures all information in one place 
• Ensure organization-wide protection, including against technology-based risks and other threats 
• Respond to evolving security threats 
• Reduce costs and spending on ineffective defence technology 
• Protect the integrity, confidentiality and availability of data.
