Laws and regulations are not required to prevent all attacks, but they do require implementation of reasonable safeguards. The ISO 27001 standard is a major international standard on how to manage information security. The ISO 27001 certification is driven by a client’s requirement to demonstrate the maturity of their vendor’s cybersecurity programs. The certification can be used to address requests for SSAE18, SOC2, and NIST, as well as be a foundation for HITRUST and PCI certification. The benefits of attaining the ISO 27001 certification includes the following: retaining customers and gaining new business, setting up reasonable safeguards to prevent fines and lawsuits, improving ability to plan and address strategic risks, and establish compliance with contractual and legal responsibilities.
Digital Edge provides consulting services to companies of all sizes and regions to fully prepare them for the ISO 27001 audit. Our fully integrated legal and cybersecurity experts collaborate with your internal team to prepare you for any auditor, and to date we have advised hundreds of companies which have all obtained their certificates.
