IT Security Compliance Services

What is IT Security Compliance Services?

ISO 27001 is closely associated with ISO 27002, which is a code of practice for Information Security Management.

ISO 27002 (formerly ISO 17799) provides a common and proven basis for developing high organisational security standards and effective security management practice.

ISO 27001 is the actual standard to which certification is measured. It sets out the requirements for an Information Security Management System (ISMS). An ISMS is a systematic approach to managing the security of sensitive information - encompassing people, processes, IT systems and policy.
