Why do companies need ISO 27001 certification?
ISO 27001 is the global standard for information security management systems (ISMS) and is used by a number of organisations to prove their security standards. An ISMS is a systematic approach to managing the security of information that every organisation should have – encompassing people, processes, systems and policy. ISO 27001 uses a common and proven model to develop, implement and improve internal and external security.
Without it, can you demonstrate to your clients and customers that your information security is as secure and well managed as it should be?
