ISO/IEC 27001 ISMS Toolkit helps Indian companies tackle their information security project
/EINPresswire.com/ IT Governance Ltd, the Asian one-stop shop for ISO 27001 information, books, toolkits, and pocket guides has announced that organisations that order the company's best-selling Standalone ISO 27001 ISMS Toolkit will receive a free copy of Information Security Risk Management for ISO 27001/ISO 27002 (eBook). The toolkit, which has sold more than 1050 copies internationally, can be ordered here www.itgovernanceasia.com/p-90-standalone-iso27001-isms-documentation-toolkit-download.aspx.
Organisations in India are progressively becoming ISO 27001-compliant, with new data privacy regulations contributing hugely to this trend. Earlier this year the Indian Government released a new announcement on privacy data law (www.itgovernanceasia.com/t-iso27001.aspx) aimed at companies that collect information as part of their business. The law states that when outsourcing aspects of IT that touch data stores, companies need to be extra careful that the service providers they engage with follow these new rules of the law, and the exact policies of their shareholders and/or management. The new regulations are extremely strict and emphasise the importance of following them. Not complying with this new Act can create a disruption of service and result in fines, damaged reputation and loss of revenue.
Alan Calder, CEO of IT Governance, comments, "Increasingly, organisations in India are seeing ISO27001 certification as a minimum standard for information security management in their suppliers. With this in mind, and taking into account the tough economic climate, we have developed an affordable product which helps organisations with limited budgets to accelerate their ISO27001 certification."
The ISO 27001 standard provides a model for the implementation of an effective Information Security Management System (ISMS) for companies that handle customer data. Organisations may seek independent certification of their ISMS against this international standard. Having an ISO 27001 certified ISMS increases an organisation's credibility and gives it a competitive advantage in dealing with its customers and partners. ISO 27001 can open the door for mutual data and information exchange with clients and partners.
ISO 27001 certification requires a lot of time and resources. Many small and mid-size companies are unable to invest money in consultancy, but conversely they cannot afford not to become ISO 27001-compliant. With those organisations in mind, IT Governance Asia has developed the ISO 27001 ISMS Toolkit (www.itgovernanceasia.com/p-90-standalone-iso27001-isms-documentation-toolkit-download.aspx). It costs less than one day's consultancy and at the same time enables implementers to kick-start their ISO 27001 project.
The ISO 27001 ISMS Toolkit is designed to provide organisations with all the tools they need for the implementation of an ISMS. The toolkit includes copies of the two key information security standards (ISO 27001 and ISO 27002), the vsRisk Assessment Tool, the Documentation Template Toolkit and manuals that describe in practical detail how each aspect of the ISMS should be tackled.
Customers who buy the toolkit by Thursday 22nd will also receive a free Information Security Risk Management for ISO 27001 / ISO 27002 in a PDF format (www.itgovernanceasia.com/p-46-information-security-risk-management-for-iso-27001iso-27002-ebook.aspx). This fantastic eBook will hugely benefit companies implementing risk assessment in the ISO 27001 environment.
