Organizations of 21st century run on Information assets and any loss of these can wreck havoc on the very existence of the organization. The recent high profile information security breaches and the value of information have highlighted the ever increasing need for organizations to protect and manage their information asset.
Information Security Management is a top-down, business driven approach to the management of an organization’s physical and electronic information assets in order to preserve their Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability.
Information Security Management must be aligned with the organization’s information security needs and strategic objectives to preserve its competitive edge, profitability, commercial image and legal, regulatory and contractual requirements. ISO/IEC 27001:2005 is an international standard that provides specifications for the establishment and proper maintenance of organization’s Information Security Management System (ISMS). It offers a process driven approach and Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) methodology that in turn reflects the principles of the OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development) guidelines governing the security of information systems and networks.
The establishment, implementation and continuous improvement of ISMS ensures that, an organization is using a systematic approach for the identification, assessment and management of information security risks.
We use proven methodology of British Standards Institute (BSI), the original creator of the ISO/IEC 27001 standard, to implement information security management systems. As part of development effort we provide a framework of policies, procedures, workflows, roles and responsibilities, enterprise risk management, incident management, contingency planning, awareness and trainings, internal review, and continual improvement for the organization and help organizations to manage the Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability of their information assets.
Every organization is different. Therefore the ISMS methodology must be uniquely customized for each organization. We use specialized methodology and customize the ISMS for customer to ensure that customer’s own management systems are not changed but are “improved and strengthened” to meet the ISMS requirements according to the ISO27001 Standard. |
