Take a look at the ISO 27001 accreditation with us as we unravel its importance, key controls, and the differences between the 2013 and 2022 versions. Explore why this accreditation holds pivotal importance for Fuuse and how it enhances information security.
ISO 27001 is an international standard for information security management systems (ISMS). It provides a framework for organisations to establish, implement, maintain, and continually improve their information security processes and controls. The standard outlines requirements for assessing and managing information security risks, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information assets, and addressing legal and regulatory obligations related to information security. Compliance with ISO/IEC 27001 demonstrates to stakeholders, including customers, partners, and regulators, that an organisation is committed to protecting its sensitive information and managing security risks effectively.
ISO 27001:2022 includes the same number of clauses as ISO 27001:2013, but the text has changed slightly. When ISO standards are revised, the changes often include updates to reflect advancements in technology, changes in the threat landscape, and feedback from users and experts.
There are several ISO27001 controls split into different areas. In the case of ISO27001 there are 93 controls divided into four categories: Organisational Controls, People Controls, Physical Controls and Technological Controls.
ISO27001 is important to us for several reasons:
Enhanced Credibility: Achieving ISO27001 certification demonstrates to our clients, investors, and partners that we take information security seriously and we have implemented robust controls to protect sensitive data.
Regulatory Compliance: Compliance with ISO27001 can helps us to meet regulatory requirements related to data protection and privacy. Many regulations, such as GDPR in Europe require organisations to implement appropriate security measures to protect personal or sensitive data, and ISO27001 serves as a framework for meeting these obligations.
Risk Management: Implementing the ISO27001 framework helps us identify, assess, and manage information security risks effectively, reducing the likelihood and impact of security incidents that could disrupt operations.
Scalability and Growth: Adopting ISO 27001 from the enables us to build a strong foundation for information security as it grows and scales. We encourages a proactive approach to security and can adapt to the evolving needs and challenges of the industry and our clients.
Overall, ISO27001 provides a structured framework for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving information security management helping to mitigate risks, build trust, and support sustainable growth aligning with our business values.
