Written in clear English (download the contents and introduction to this book), this book explores why so many organizations have already successfully registered to BS7799/ISO27001 and makes a crystal clear case for pursuing the standard that management in any organization anywhere in the world will accept. Information security is about more, so much more than compliance, security and survival - it's about sharpening your competitive edge for battle in the information economy. This book argues that those enterprises that are certified to ISO27001 will outperform those that aren't. This book: * analyses the importance of information security in today's information economy; * assesses the traditional information security threats that your organization faces on a daily basis; * reports on the threats from terrorism, organized crime and industrial espionage; * describes the growing range of information-related regulatory compliance requirements; * summarises the benefits of ISO27001 certification; * provides initial guidance on how to get started with ISO27001; * sets out how to select a certification body.
In summary, this book provides all the information that you will need to assess the value to your organization of implementing an ISO27001 Information Security Management System and to create the business case for doing so.
