ISO/IEC 27001
ISO/IEC 27001 is the leading international standard for information security management systems (ISMS). It defines requirements for systematically protecting information; fulfilment is demonstrated through certification.
What is ISO/IEC 27001?
ISO/IEC 27001 is the globally recognised standard for information security management systems (ISMS). It sets out how organisations plan, implement, monitor and continually improve information security. The standard is applicable across all sectors.
What gets certified under ISO/IEC 27001?
It is not a single product that is certified, but an organisation's management system. Among other things, the handling of risks, access rights, encryption, business continuity and the continual improvement of security are examined.
Certification by independent bodies
Fulfilment of the requirements is examined in an audit by accredited certification bodies and confirmed by a certificate, which is reviewed regularly.
Why is ISO/IEC 27001 important?
An ISO/IEC 27001 certification shows that a provider runs information security in a structured and demonstrable way. For choosing a cloud service, this is an important trust signal.
