ISO 27001 aims to ensure that adequate controls and procedures addressing confidentiality, integrity and availability of information are in place to safeguard the information of your customers, employees and trading partners.
It’s also a solid first step to being GDPR compliant.
Unprotected systems are vulnerable to computer-assisted fraud, sabotage and viruses. Breaches in information security can allow vital information to be accessed, stolen, corrupted or lost therefore having a distinct impact on your business.

GETTING THE JUMP ON THE GDPR – ISO27001
The GDPR encourages international certifications like ISO 27001 to demonstrate active data security management.
ISO 27001 certification means your organisation employs an ISMS (information security management system) supported by top leadership and incorporated in your organisation’s culture.
It also confirms a process of continuous improvement with constant monitoring, updating and review to identify and mitigate risks.
