What is ISO 27001?

The ISO (International Organization for Standardization) 27001 standard is a globally accepted standard for information security, designed to help organizations protect their valuable data through the implementation of an Information Security Management System (ISMS). An effective ISMS demonstrates how the organization has integrated information security into their everyday business processes and provides a framework for handling information security challenges. ISO 27001 requires company leaders to assess their organization, identify pertinent information security risks, and implement appropriate controls to address and mitigate the identified risks.

Achieving ISO 27001 compliance is strategic for organizations who operate in or wish to expand into international markets. Whereas certain security frameworks, such as SOC 2, are commonly accepted in the U.S., ISO 27001 has significance on the international stage. Through an ISO 27001 certification, organizations can demonstrate their strong information security practices with an internationally recognized certification.
