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.

Without doubt, URM helped us to achieve our planned objectives a lot sooner than expected. The engagement was a huge success and couldn’t have gone any better.
