ISO/IEC 27001 Readiness Support

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 specifies requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an information security management system (ISMS).

Scope

The ISMS is risk-based and tailored to organizational context. It is intended to preserve confidentiality, integrity, and availability through a managed combination of people, process, and technology.

03

Planning

Assess information-security risks, select treatments, and set measurable objectives.

04

Support and operation

Provide resources, competence, communication, documentation, and execute treatment plans.

05

Evaluation

Monitor performance, conduct internal audits, and perform management reviews.

06
