What is ISO 27001:2022?

ISO 27001:2022 is an international standard that specifies the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an information security management system (ISMS). It is commonly used by organizations to manage the security of assets such as financial information, intellectual property, employee details, and information entrusted by third parties. The standard provides a framework for identifying, assessing, and managing information security risks and provides a set of controls to help organizations mitigate those risks. The 2022 version is the most current, and it contains changes aimed at improving clarity and ease of use compared to earlier versions.
