Cybersecurity Training to Take You to The Next Level.
All The Tools You Need To Build A Successful Cybersecurity Governance Program
The ISO 27001 is a popular framework used by organizations around the world to establish mature cybersecurity programs.
-
Protect - how to protect your organization's reputation from cybersecurity threats. ISO 27001’s framework ensures you have the tools to strengthen your organization across the three pillars of cyber security: people, processes, and technology.
Regulatory - what elements do you need in place, including mandatory documentation to avoid regulatory fines? ISO 27001 helps organizations avoid the costly penalties associated with non-compliance with other standards and frameworks.
Knowledge - of how to improve the structure and focus of your information security program. The ISO 27001 has enough flexibility to ensure that everyone maintains their focus on information cybersecurity efforts.
You need a strategy
Cybersecurity has changed more in the last five years than in the ten years preceding it. Cyberattacks are constantly changing and evolving, but cybersecurity professionals must have structure and strategy; without structure and a plan, cybersecurity professionals will continue aimlessly in their pursuit of protecting the organizations they serve.
All this change is chaos and disorder, a new form of fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD), one, although backed by facts, fails to have direction or a documented strategy.
If it is so difficult for us to document our cyber assets and identify those assets that have an impact on our organization's revenue, how in the world are we going to do anything about the threats we face?
We can’t; it’s that simple. And any CISO call to arms that suggest we can is a stopgap measure, a call to disillusionment and ultimate disaster because our stopgaps are not solutions.
Fortunately, there are tools to assist us with strategy development and implementation; the ISO 27001 is an example of such a tool. Having a solid cybersecurity framework in place and mapped to other standards or frameworks will assist you in dealing with emerging regulations and protect your organization pragmatically that supports the organization’s mission, vision, and services.

FAQs
-
The ISO 27001 Foundation Course was developed to assist individuals and organizations trying to understand, develop, implement, and maintain an Information Security Management System.
-
Short answer, yes. The course provides a detailed discussion of each ISO 27001 clause, including the material script and other bonus materials.
