What is ISO/IEC 27000?

ISO/IEC 27000 is a family of standards that provides a framework for information security management systems (ISMS). It encompasses a wide range of best practices for managing information security risks and ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information assets. ISO/IEC 27001 is the main standard within this family and specifies the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an ISMS. Organizations commonly use ISO/IEC 27000 standards to protect sensitive data, comply with regulations, and build trust with customers and stakeholders by demonstrating a commitment to information security.
