ISO/IEC 27001:2013 Information Security Management System

The Need for Information Security!

Computer viruses, hacking, and denial of service attacks have become more common and increasingly sophisticated. Achieving ISO 27001 significantly minimizes the risk and mitigates the organization against internal human error or misdemeanor.

What is Information Security:-

Information security is the protection of information to ensure:

• Confidentiality: ensuring that the information is accessible only to those authorized to access it.
• Integrity: ensuring that the information is accurate and complete and that the information is not modified
• without authorization.
• Availability: ensuring that the information is accessible to authorized users when required.

Information security is achieved by applying a suitable set of controls (policies, processes, procedures, organizational structures, and software and hardware functions).
