Certification
ISO 27001 demonstrates an organization’s commitment to protecting its own information and that of its customers.
It is crucial for organizations handling sensitive data, such as personal information, financial records, or intellectual property.
What is ISO 27001?
ISO/IEC 27001 is the internationally recognized standard for information security management and cybersecurity best practices.
This standard applies to organizations of any size and industry, defining essential security controls while establishing a governance framework to manage them effectively over time. Its global recognition makes ISO 27001 certification the gold standard for demonstrating commitment to cybersecurity.
ISO 27001 is the central standard to the series of ISO family, addressing specific aspects of information security governance. There are several ISO extensions to ISO/IEC 27001 to extend a company ISMS and allow for additional certification. For example, specialized extension standards are:
- ISO/IEC 27701 – Focused on Privacy Information Management, aligning security practices with GDPR and other data protection regulations.
- ISO/IEC 27017 & ISO/IEC 27018 – Designed for cloud security, ensuring the protection of personal and business-critical data in cloud environments.
