ISO/IEC 27001 is the world's best-known international standard for Information Security Management Systems (ISMS). It is published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in partnership with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).

  • It follows a risk-based approach, ensuring that people, processes, and technology are aligned to protect data confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
  • In contrast, ISO 9001 is the standard for Quality Management Systems (Quality Assurance), and ISO 14001 relates to Environmental Management.

Given the increasing frequency of cyber threats and data breaches, ISO 27001 has become a critical benchmark for cybersecurity and data protection globally.
