Indian firms urged to boost cyber security as reports announce the country is ‘unprepared’

A recent research report has shown alarming statistics that demonstrate that the country is unprepared for cyber warfare.

NEW DELHI, INDIA, October 29, 2014 /EINPresswire.com/ -- A recent research report has found that there was a 136% increase in cyber attacks on Indian government organisations last year and a 126% increase in attacks on financial service organisations – alarming statistics that demonstrate that the country is unprepared for cyber warfare. IT Governance Ltd, the global provider of cyber security and ISO27001 expertise, says all Indian organisations can drastically improve the standing of their cyber security by implementing an information security management system (ISMS), as set out in the international standard ISO27001.

Alan Calder, founder and executive chairman of IT Governance, says: “All organisations in India should implement an ISO27001-compliant ISMS. Not only does an ISMS enable you to meet your data protection obligations, it is the best way of minimising the risk of a data breach and protecting your profits. With such a dramatic increase in cyber attacks in India, organisations cannot afford to be cyber insecure.”

Calder continues: “An ISMS provides a holistic approach to information security management that addresses the whole enterprise, and accredited certification to the Standard offers globally acknowledged proof that information security best practice has been adopted. IT Governance’s ISO27001 Get A Lot Of Help package makes it easy for organisations in India to implement ISO27001.”

The Get A Lot Of Help package contains tried and tested and highly experienced consultancy support, guidance and project management. This helps organisations get the best out of an integrated set of tools and services that, between them, enable them to achieve guaranteed ISO27001-certification readiness.
