What is the ISO 27002?
Safe Side Compliance’s ISO 27002 Information Security Program is structured to provide an extensive set of best practices for security management across any type of organization. The ISO 27002 is an International Standard that is comprised of eleven security clauses that include 39 main security categories with hundreds of security control objectives. While other regulations and standards are designed to support specific types of information or business processes, the ISO 27002 is framed to assist all organizations in the development and management of information security.
Benefits of using ISO 27002 Guidelines
The ISO 27002 best practices framework is designed as a guideline to address initiating, implementing, maintaining and enhancing the security controls and objectives within an organization's security program.
