    Quite often organisations utilise legacy and ad hoc approaches to their Information Security. This results in weaker security, increased costs and poor governance.

    There is a need today for many organisations to standardise their approach and management of Information Security to a best practices framework in order to appropriately protect their information assets, to demonstrate this best practice approach to internal and external stakeholders such as audit, risk, compliance and supply chain.

    ISO27001 is one of the internationally recognised standard that provides a systemic approach to the organisation, management and operation of information security. Achieving ISO27001 certification demonstrates to your stakeholders that you have an effective approach to information security.

    Using ISO27001 as an overarching security management framework is also an effective way to coherently manage and prevent compliance sprawl arising from industry and legal compliance regimes such as GDPR, PCI/DSS and SOX.
