Mindlogicx Infotech Limited is an ISO 27001:2005 certified company. Information security is beneficial not only to the organization implementing it but it also adds to the security of all data and information provided by clients. |
|
“Information is an asset that, like other important business assets, is essential to an organization’s business and consequently needs to be suitably protected.” |
| |
| What is ISMS? |
|
ISMS is the Information Security Management System. Like QMS (Quality Management System), ISMS also strongly follows PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle to establish a Management System for Information Security. A management system is a system to firstly establish the policy and objectives and as a second step, to achieve those objectives. |
|
Management systems are used by organizations to develop their policies and to put these into effect via objectives and targets using: |
|
|
Organizational structure |
|
|
Processes and associated resources |
|
|
Measurement and evaluation methodology |
|
| |
Review process to ensure problems are corrected and opportunities for improvement are recognized and implemented when justified |
|
|
Why is information security required? |
|
Information is globally accepted as being a very important asset for any organization and business. As such, the confidentiality, integrity and availability of vital corporate and customer information may be essential to maintain competitive edge, cash-flow, profitability, legal compliance and commercial image. It is easy to imagine the consequences for an organization if its information is lost, destroyed, corrupted, burnt, flooded, sabotaged or misused. In many cases it can lead to the collapse of the organization. |
