ISO 27001:2022 Information security

Privacy information management

The ISO/IEC 27701:2019 is the leading international standard for implementing an information security management system. It focuses on identifying, assessing, and managing risks related to information processing activities and all hardware and software infrastructure supporting business technology operations. Annex A of ISO 27701:2019 contains a catalog of 114 security controls, which organizations should select based on their applicability.

With the ISO 27701:2019 standard, you can demonstrate to clients, prospects, suppliers, and shareholders the integrity of your data and systems, as well as your commitment to information security. Certification of your information system can also lead to new business opportunities with security-conscious clients, strengthen confidentiality throughout the workplace, and enhance employee ethics. Furthermore, certification allows you to strengthen information security and reduce potential risks of fraud, information loss, and confidentiality breaches.

General goals:

Identifying best practices in Information Security;
Supporting the implementation of an Information Security Management System;
Assessing vulnerabilities, threats, and risks;
Evaluating the potential benefits of Information Security certification;
Actively participating in Information Security audit activities;
Managing an audit program, planning, and conducting value-added internal audits of the Quality Management System.

Target audience:

Employees of organizations who are or intend to become auditors, and/or will be conducting internal audits in Information Security Management Systems, in accordance with ISO 27701:2019;
Professionals aiming to become Internal Auditors of Information Security Management Systems;
Internal auditors of Information Security Management Systems looking to update their knowledge.

Four key benefits of implementing ISO 27001:2022

1. Conformidade:
It may seem unusual to list compliance as the first benefit, but it often provides the quickest return on investment. If an organization needs to comply with various regulations regarding data protection, privacy, and IT governance (especially if it’s in finance, healthcare, or government sectors), ISO 27701:2022 can provide the methodology to do so efficiently.

2. Market Advantage:
In an increasingly competitive market, finding something that sets you apart from competitors can be challenging. ISO 27701:2022 can indeed be an unmatched selling point, especially if you handle sensitive customer information.

3. Cost Reduction:
Information security is often seen as a cost without apparent financial gain. However, there is financial gain in reducing expenses caused by incidents such as service disruptions, occasional data leaks, or disgruntled/ex-employees. While there isn’t a precise methodology or technology to calculate potential savings from preventing these incidents, highlighting these cases can draw management’s attention.

4. Organizational Structure:
This is perhaps the most underestimated point. If your company has experienced significant growth in recent years, you may encounter issues such as decision-making responsibilities, asset ownership for information, and authorization for information system access. ISO 27701:2022 helps in organizing these aspects effectively.
