ISO 270001 is all about Information Security Management. The effective security of confidential and sensitive information is essential to the success of a business, so ISO 27001 intends to reduce the likelihood of data breaches. ISO, (the International Organisation for Standardisation), produces documents that determine specifications, requirements, and guidance to ensure that services, products, and procedures are delivered to the appropriate standard, and achieve their primary objective, thus complying to ISO 27001 is significant.
