About ISO/IEC 27001
ISO/IEC 27001 and its related code of practice, ISO/IEC 27002 (17799), describe an information security management standard for organizations that is quickly growing in popularity around the world. The basis for the standard is that an organization’s most valuable asset is its information. As a valued asset, information must be managed and protected from internal and external threats. In order to protect its information assets, the organization must develop sustainable security measures and integrate those measures into its business processes.
