ISO/IEC 27001 certification: A reference framework for security

Recognized as a leading international standard, ISO/IEC 27001 defines a rigorous framework for information security management within organizations. Its main objective is to protect sensitive data from alteration, loss, or unauthorized access while meeting increasing compliance requirements.

At the heart of this certification lies the implementation and management of an information security management system (ISMS). Based on a structured methodology, it enables risks to be identified, appropriate controls to be implemented and processes to be continuously improved. This system is based on fundamental concepts:

  • Risk assessment and management: Anticipating potential threats to information systems.

  • Proactive data protection: Adopting concrete measures to guarantee data integrity and availability.

  • Harmonization of practices: Aligning with a set of international standards to ensure global compliance.
