BS 7799 / ISO 17799, the code of practise for Information Security Management, describes a management framework through which an organisation can examine and improve its security policy. IRW has recognised that this standard is increasingly becoming essential for all public sector, and public sector- serving organisations. It is also vital for any organisation that manages and controls valuable information assets.
BS 7799 contains a comprehensive set of security controls to improve the levels of security within an organisation. Even if formal certification is not a strategic objective, efforts to comply with the principles of BS 7799 will bring benefits such as:
- Reduced exposure to a wide range of threats such as hacking, theft, sabotage, industrial espionage, technical failure.
- A more secure operational environment
- Assurance that security controls are in line with industry best practice.
- An improved awareness of the importance of security throughout the organisation
- Improvements in operational efficiency and control
- Public recognition that protecting the security of information is a priority within the organisation.
We have delivered numerous consultancies to large public sector organisations, specifically addressing how they manage and maintain their data to the appropriate levels of security. Initially we would include a Gap analysis and Risk Assessment providing a complete set of requirements and areas within the organization at greatest risk, from which we would produce the final BS7799 plan.
Our consultants have also delivered numerous seminars on BS7799/ ISO 17799, and can actively assist in your needs for both education and delivery of ISMS services.
