Supporting Compliance For ISO 27001

Text

The primary goal of ISO 27001 is to help organizations secure their information assets. This widely recognized international standard is optional and outlines best practices for maintaining and securing an Information Security Management System (ISMS). Accepted in 168 countries, accreditation is particularly useful for companies dealing with sensitive data, such as healthcare firms, financial services companies, and government contractors. Many organizations around the world employ the standard to ensure their security policies, processes, and controls can:

Provide Audit Information

Responsibly manage confidential or sensitive data

Data Classification

Classify data and highlight exceptions using visual and metadata labels

Alerting Users

Send alerts when sensitive data leaves the organization
