Briefly about ISO 27001

This International Standard has been developed to provide a model for the development, implementation, maintenance and continuous improvement of an information security management system. The implementation of the information security management system in the company, organization is a strategic decision of the organization.

Objective of ISO 27001

An information security management system according to ISO/IEC 27001 aims to ensure that appropriate controls for confidentiality, integrity and availability of information are implemented to protect stakeholder information. These stakeholders include customers, employees, business partners and the general needs of society. Unsecured information systems are vulnerable to many emerging threats such as computer fraud, sabotage, viruses and more. These threats can be internal or external, both accidental and intentional. A breach in information security can make vital information accessible, stolen, damaged or lost.

ISO 27001 value

An organization that operates in accordance with the requirements of the ISO/IEC 27001 standard:

  • identifies weak areas and chooses appropriate measures to reduce possible information security risks in the organization. This is especially true for companies whose reputation could be damaged by disclosing the information they have;
  • determines the classification of information, which allows for a clear definition of what is confidential, secret information in the organization, and what is public or internal use information, and determines measures to ensure its security;
  • determines information access rights;
  • improves communication.

Advantages of a certified management system according to the ISO 27001 standard:

  • confidence in the manufacturer or service provider is increased;
  • the reputation and image of the organization improves;
  • compliance with legal requirements;
  • competitive advantage when offering or supplying products to the European Union or other countries and participating in public tenders.

Integrated management system

The information security management system can be integrated with other management systems, such as the quality management system (ISO 9001) or the environmental protection management system (ISO 14001).
