Making the Move to ISO 27001: 2013

Why Should You Attend:

• Are you feeling the pressure of sustaining your company’s reputation by failing re-certification to ISO 27001: 2013?
• Could you be blamed for downgrading the company’s standing internally?
• Have you shown sufficient innovation to retain your role?
• Is management concerned about the overhead consumed by maintaining the standard, not to mention, recertification?

Without a good reputation, customers leave, sales drop, and revenues shrink. If fellow employees start to view internal processes as not up to the mark, their impression of the health of the company can falter.

Enhanced reputation, proficiency and efficiency are the hallmarks of a successful transition. Your approach to managing these attributes must ensure that, within your scope, the interested parties follow the right information security precautions to reduce risking compromise. They must also reveal and address incidents that may cause potentially unfavorable news reports and media attention, which are of course to be avoided to minimize any operational disruption.

A successful transition will impress not only your management and staff, but also your most important customers, consumers, and suppliers. So part of the justification for transition has to be corporate reputation because it affects company standing externally and internally. Reputation must be the driver for a whole new strategy for managing what follows transition.

These tactics are what this webinar is all about.
