5/22/23, 1:31 PM ISO/IEC 27001 Standard – Information Security Management Systems

With cyber-crime on the rise and new threats constantly emerging, it can seem difficult
or even impossible to manage cyber-risks. ISO/IEC 27001 helps organizations become
risk-aware and proactively identify and address weaknesses.
ISO/IEC 27001 promotes a holistic approach to information security: vetting people,
policies and technology. An information security management system implemented
according to this standard is a tool for risk management, cyber-resilience and
operational excellence.
