ISO 27001 advocates the use of an Information Security Management System (an ISMS for short), which is made up of a standardised set of policies, processes and procedures to enable you to identify what information needs to be protected, what types of protection you require and what mitigating actions can be taken to address any identified risks. In effect, your ISMS outlines the approach you take to managing your information security.
We have been using the services provided by URM for a couple of years now. They have been excellent in providing their expertise on ISO 27001 and SOC 2, which was instrumental in guiding us on our compliance and certification journey. Thanks to their professionalism and knowledge, we continue to obtain certifications smoothly and with confidence.
