ISO 27001
ISO/IEC 27001 is the globally accepted standard for the establishment, implementation, and maintenance of the Information Security Management System (ISMS). This standard lays down a risk-based approach to identify information security risks and manage them through adequate measures in the light of business objectives. ISO/IEC 27001 is based on leadership and commitment to risk management and is designed to manage information security in a systematic, auditable, and repeatable process involving people, processes, and technology.
ISO/IEC 27002 can be seen as a guidelines and best practices publication for information security, as it complements ISO/IEC 27001 by addressing how a set of information security controls can be implemented and managed. ISO/IEC 27001 defines what must be accomplished with regard to ISMS, but ISO/IEC 27002 details how information security controls can be implemented. This standard serves as a guidance publication that assists in the selection, implementation, and management of information security controls specified by ISO/IEC 27001 in Annex A, thus helping to drive policy into effective management practices. ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 27002 are a complete range for forming a strong information security stance.
