Overview of the webinar
Organizations had until 25 May 2018 to comply with the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Although many businesses understand the importance of implementing the right procedures to detect, report and investigate a data breach in compliance with the GDPR, not many are aware of the benefits of implementing International Organization for Standardization/International Electrotechnical Commission (ISO/IEC) 27001 standards compliant with an information security management system (ISMS) deployment. The GDPR encourages the use of certification schemes like ISO/IEC 27001 to demonstrate that the organization is actively managing data protection mechanisms in line with international best practice.
Information is one of the most valuable and business-critical assets for any organization. In today’s hyper-connected world, organizations are facing large-scale information security threats and destructive cyber-attacks. ISO/IEC 27001 certification confirms that your organization has appropriate controls in place to reduce the risk of serious data security threats and reduces the exploitation of vulnerabilities within your organization’s systems.
The deployment of ISO/IEC 27001 permits achieving the technical and operational requirements necessary to assist in preventing a data breach under the GDPR. Using an ISMS configuration can assist organizations, no matter the size and sector, in taking a systematic risk-based approach to managing and securing sensitive company data. ISO/IEC 27001 certification provides customers and other stakeholders with confidence that the organization’s manager-leaders have implemented internationally accepted best practices.
