ISO 27001 Online Training – Implementing ISO 27001

What Is ISO 27001?

ISO 27001 is an internationally recognised standard for information security within organisations. It provides the framework for an effective ISMS, helping your business reduce the risk of data breaches, increase compliance with GDPR and data protection regulations, and increase standing with customers.

The standard is built on robust information security processes and policies, active monitoring and measuring, and a commitment to continuous improvement. It encompasses human resources, IT systems, asset management and access control through to managing supplier relationships and business continuity in the event of an adverse data incident.
