Implementing an ISMS (Information Security Management System)

A system to manage information security is an ISMS, which is defined by ISO 27001, an international standard.

Both ISO 27001 and ISO 27002 provide excellent guidelines for implementing an ISMS.

By demonstrating that an organization's information assets are protected from identified risks by an ISMS, which has been independently audited by an approved certification body, clients and potential clients will feel reassured.

Integral to implementing an ISMS is a robust assessment of the information security risks.

A thorough understanding of the possible risks that the organization and its data may face in the foreseeable future is a prerequisite to implementing the necessary mitigation measures (known as 'controls').

The recommended controls provided by ISO 27001 can serve as a checklist to ensure that all the controls necessary for legislative, business, contractual, or regulatory purposes have been taken into account.
