ISMS

Information Security Management (ISMS)

Stable backbone for information security in companies

Cyber attacks and data theft now affect almost everything and everyone. The management of information security plays a decisive role in whether a company can secure its business processes and enjoy trust on the market.

Systematic IT Security

Building trust through structured Information Security

An Information Security Management System (ISMS) is a systematic approach that defines guidelines, processes and technologies to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information. It is used to identify risks, implement suitable protective measures and continuously improve them.

An ISMS ensures compliance with legal requirements and strengthens the trust of customers and partners.

Benefits of an ISMS

  • Identification of security vulnerabilities
    You minimise IT security risks by systematically uncovering potential vulnerabilities.
  • Sustainable protection of sensitive data
    You effectively protect information, data and business processes against cyber attacks and data theft.
  • Continuous improvement
    You increase the availability of your IT systems & processes and establish monitoring & control mechanisms.
  • Sensitisation of employees
    Through certification, you promote your employees' awareness of information security & data protection.

Which path is right for me?

There are various methods or standards for companies to set up an ISMS and have it audited in order to have certainty or fulfil legal requirements. All approaches focus on the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information, but have a different emphasis in some areas.

Is your company compliant?

The introduction and operation of an ISMS is a cornerstone for a high level of cyber security in companies. Risk-averse companies decide in favour of this. However, there are also companies that are legally obliged to operate an ISMS.

These laws and proposed legislation require, among other things, the use of an ISMS

A number of laws have been passed at EU level in recent years, which have been and are currently being transposed into national legislation in the member states. A functioning ISMS is often one of the minimum requirements, some of which must also be verified.
