Chapter Three Consulting Become ISO 27001 Accredited
Chapter Three Consulting are delighted to announce
that they have achieved ISO 27001 accreditation awarded by the British
Assessment Bureau.
ISO 27001 is the internationally recognised
Information Security Management Standard (ISMS) that proves an organisation’s
commitment to the security of their customers. With ISO 27001 in place, Chapter
Three Consulting are able to minimise risks to potential data security breaches
and reduce errors and costs, while demonstrating credibility and trust.
An ISMS is a set of policies, procedures, processes
and systems that manage information risks, such as cyber-attacks, hacks, data
leaks or theft. Businesses have been encouraged to identify risks of all shapes
and sizes for many years now, and once identified they must be managed, and
risk mitigation must be considered.
Cyber-attacks are increasing in volume and strength
daily, and the financial and reputational damage caused by an ineffectual
information security system can be fatal. Implementing an ISO 27001-certified
ISMS helps to protect an organisation against such threats and demonstrates
that the necessary steps have been taken to protect the business.
An IBM Survey, allocates 49% of breaches to
malicious activity, 23% to system glitches and the remaining 28% to human
error.
The Standard is designed to ensure the selection of
adequate and proportionate security controls that help to protect information
in line with increasingly rigid regulatory requirements such as the General
Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the NIS Directive and other cyber security
laws.
The benefits of certification to ISO 27001 include:
- Proving to clients an organisation keeps their information secure
- Achieve operational excellence
- Minimise risk of potential data security breaches
- Protects reputation
- Reduces errors and costs
- Increases business profitability
- Engages employees
The Standard also helps businesses become more
productive by setting out clear information risk responsibilities and ensuring
continual improvement.
