International Standards White Papers

Moving to an Effective, Efficient, and Sustainable Information Security Management System Based on the ISO 27001 International Standard

Overview In the rush to meet regulatory or customer mandates, organizations have spent millions of dollars in implementing security and compliance measures on an issue-by-issue or regulation-by-regulation basis. These approaches to compliance and information security governance are filled with unnecessary risks and costs. This is demonstrated by the fact that over 90 million customer data records have been compromised in the last 18 months by public companies, universities, and government agencies due to breaches in security. Clearly, the standards of Information Security Governance must be raised. What is needed is an approach that is effective, efficient, and sustainable. This paper explains how such an approach is achievable by establishing it on the secure foundation of the ISO 17799 and ISO 27001 international standards.
