ISO 27001
THE Norm for information security: safe framework, individual design
The comprehensive framework of the ISO/IEC 27001 certification standard and the ISO/IEC 27002 practical guide enable the introduction of an information security management system (ISMS) from a single source. The structured process approach avoids problems that can arise from the implementation of individual measures. Security gaps are systematically assessed and minimised. The risk analysis shows the individual security requirements of an organisation, with cost-effectiveness being a key criterion for the implementation of measures.From implementation …
ISO/IEC 27001 specifies the requirements of an information security management system (ISMS). ISO/IEC 27002 contains further information and offers support for the implementation of an ISMS.
… for certification
ISO 27001 is the standard for information security that can also be certified and thus offers veritable competitive advantages and eliminates the need for time-consuming individual verifications.
The standard allows organisations of all sizes and industries to implement, measure, control and internally audit information security for self-assessment. The review of the ISMS by an independent accredited organisation such as CIS results in ISO 27001 certification following the specified certification process.

Your advantages with ISO 27001

Certification
ISO 27001 deals with the introduction and documentation of ISMS. ISO 27002 contains information on more than 100 security measures (controls).
The standard allows organisations of all sizes and industries to implement, measure, control and internally audit information security for self-assessment.
The review of the ISMS by an independent accredited organisation such as CIS leads to ISO 27001 certification in accordance with the specified certification process. Information on the project phases and the certification process can be found here.
ISO 27001 certifications as a basis for further specialised certifications
The ISO 27001 series of standards offers further sub-standards on the basis of which an ISO 27001 certification can be extended.
The last extremely relevant standard in this context is ISO/IEC 27701, which supplements ISO 27001 with the requirements of a data protection management system based on the General Data Protection Regulation.
Focus certifications for which CIS is accredited:
- ISO/IEC 27701 – Data protection management
- ISO/IEC 27017/18 – Cloud Security
- ISO/IEC 27019 – Protection of process control systems in energy supply
- IT security catalogue in accordance with Section 11 (1a) of the Energy Industry Act (DE) based on the IT security catalogue for the Energy Industry Act
