What is Information Security Management System (ISMS)?
ISMS is a system for managing information security while consisting of people, processes and technology. It’s not all about IT. It helps you make the right decisions about the risks that are specific to your company. ISMS protects data in all its forms, including personal data.
Risk assessments are essential for ISMS. The results of the risk assessment are action plans to treat, avoid, manage or reduce risks. These action plans are optimised according to your business’s nature and objectives.
The international information security management standard ISO/IEC 27001, outlines the specifications for implementing an ISMS.
