Protect and enhance your reputation
Cyber-attacks are increasing in volume and strength daily. The financial and reputational damage caused by an ineffectual information security posture can be disastrous.
Implementing an ISO 27001-certified ISMS helps protect your organisation against such threats and demonstrates that you have taken the necessary steps to protect your business.
Comply with business, legal, contractual, and regulatory requirements
The Standard is designed to ensure the selection of adequate and proportionate security controls that help to protect the information in line with increasingly rigid regulatory requirements as well as demands from third parties that interact with your business to protect them from inadequate security management inside your organisation.
Win new business and sharpen your competitive edge
Not only does ISO 27001 certification help you demonstrate good security practices, thereby improving working relationships and retaining existing clients, but it also gives you a proven marketing edge against your competitors.
Avoid the financial penalties and losses associated with data breaches
The global average cost of a data breach has skyrocketed to $4.26 million (a 6.4% increase from 2020), according to Ponemon.
As the accepted global benchmark for the effective management of information assets, ISO 27001 enables organisations to avoid the potentially devastating financial losses caused by data breaches.
Improve structure and focus
When a business grows rapidly, it doesn’t take long before there is confusion about who is responsible for which information assets.
The Standard helps companies become more productive by clearly setting out information risk responsibilities.
Reduce the need for frequent audits
ISO 27001 certification provides a globally accepted indication of security effectiveness, negating the need for repeated customer audits, and reducing external customer audit days.
