ELY, CAMBRIDGESHIRE, UNITED KINGDOM, May 17, 2016 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The international information security experts IT Governance have added a new edition of a bestseller to their catalogue: Nine Steps to Success – An ISO 27001 Implementation Overview, Third edition, by Alan Calder.

ISO 27001 is the international standard that sets out the requirements of an information security management system (ISMS) – a holistic approach to information security that encompasses people, processes and technology. Accredited certification to the Standard is recognised worldwide as the hallmark of best-practice information security management.

Achieving and maintaining accredited certification to ISO 27001 can be a complicated undertaking, however, especially for implementers who are new to the Standard.

Alan Calder, the founder and executive chairman of IT Governance, knows ISO 27001 inside out: he led the implementation of the management system that achieved the world’s first accredited certification to BS 7799 – the forerunner to ISO 27001 – and has been working with the Standard ever since. Hundreds of organisations around the world have achieved accredited certification to ISO 27001 with IT Governance’s guidance – which is distilled in this book.

Now in its third edition and aligned with ISO 27001:2013 – the latest iteration of the Standard – Nine Steps to Success has been completely updated to reflect the implementation methodology used by IT Governance consultants in hundreds of successful ISMS implementations around the world.

If you’re tackling ISO 27001 for the first time, Nine Steps to Success will give you the guidance you need to understand the Standard’s requirements and ensure your implementation project is a success – from inception to certification.

Reader review

“It’s like having a $300/hr consultant at your elbow as you consider the aspects of gaining management support, planning, scoping, communication, etc.”
