What is an Information Security Management System?
An Information Security Management System (ISMS) is a systematic approach to managing sensitive company information so that it remains secure. It encompasses people, processes and IT systems. ISO/IEC 27001:2005 is the latest International Standard an organization must be measured against to implement a successful ISMS. BSI has also published a code of practice for these systems, ISO/IEC 27002:2005, which is now adopted internationally. This document will help guide an organization looking to register to ISO/IEC 27001:2005.

Information security does not end at implementing the latest firewall, or hiring a 24 hour sub contracted security firm. The overall approach to Information Security, and integration of different security initiatives need to be managed in order for each element to be most effective. That's where an Information Security Management System comes in - it allows you to coordinate your security efforts effectively.

What is ISO/IEC 27001:2005?

ISO/IEC 27001:2005 is a standard setting out the requirements for an Information Security Management System. It helps identify, manage and minimize the range of threats to which information is regularly subjected.

ISO/IEC 27001:2005 covers the following topics:

Security policy - This provides management direction and support for information security

Organization of assets and resources - To help you manage information security within the organization

Asset classification and control - To help you identify your assets and appropriately protect them

Personnel security - To reduce the risks of human error, theft, fraud or misuse of facilities

Physical and environmental security - To prevent unauthorized access, damage and interference to business premises and information

Communications and operations management - To ensure the correct and secure operation of information processing facilities

Access control - To control access to information

Systems development and maintenance - To ensure that security is built into information systems

Business continuity management - To counteract interruptions to business activities and to protect critical business processes from the effects of major failures or disasters

Compliance - To avoid breaches of any criminal and civil law, statutory, regulatory or contractual obligations, and any security requirement

The Eleven Control Clauses
