In this article I will provide an Overview of A new Information Security Management System Standard ISO/IEC 27001:2013 , The new standard just Published from a few Days Earlier . ISO/IEC 27001:2013 Provides requirements for Establishing, Implementing, Maintaining and Continually Improving an Information Security Management System.

The adoption of an information security management system is a strategic decision for an organization. The establishment and implementation of an organization’s information security management system is influenced by the organization’s needs and objectives, The standard covers all types of organizations (e.g. commercial , government agencies, non-profits), all sizes (from micro-businesses to huge multinationals), and all industries/ segments (e.g. retail, banking, defense, healthcare, education and government).

The Information Security Management System (ISMS) preserves the Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability of information by applying a Risk Management process and gives confidence to interested parties that Risks are adequately managed.

• Confidentiality - ensuring that access to information is appropriately authorized

• Integrity - safeguarding the accuracy and completeness of information and processing methods

Benefits of ISO 27001

ISO/IEC 27001:2013 Implementation, Certification from a certification body demonstrates that the security of organization information has been addressed, valuable data and information assets properly controlled.

Also there is List of benefits By achieving certification to ISO/IEC 27001:2013 organization will be able to acquire numerous benefits including:

ISO /IEC 27001:2013 Structure and Content

It’s a new format and wording of Information Security Management System ( ISMS )

This structure is a new formulation of ISO Management System and alignment with “ Annex SL “ that allows an organization to Made multiple implementation at the same time for related ISO Management Standard.

Now any organization can Implement ISO/IEC 27001:2013 Together with ISO 22301:2012 (Business Continuity Management System) at same time.

There are Three Core Phases

Phase I : Before External Audit

1. Implementation of ISMS

Complete of implementation cycle of Information security management system ( ISMS) Including mandatory Requirements and optional Controls

2. Conduct Internal Audit and review result by top management

The organization conduct periodic internal audits to ensure the ISMS incorporates adequate controls which operate effectively and review it by Top Management

3. Selection of a Certification body

Organization select a Certification body “ BSI , DNV, SGS “ to conduct External audit activity and Certified Organization ISMS Program

Phase II : External Audit

4. Stage 1 Audit

Conducted off or on site to determine if your ISMS system has met the requirements of the standard and is capable of being audited.

5. Stage 2 Audit

Conduct on site to audit the effectiveness of the ISMS system. Stage 1 and Stage 2 must be completed to become ISMS certified.

Phase III : Following the audit

6. Confirmation of Registration

Lead Auditor recommend to Certification Manager of Certification Body that Organization are certified.

The Certification Manager will review Organization file to ensure that the recommendation has been made in an impartial, fair and competent manner.

Upon completion of the above Organization will be officially certified to ISO/IEC 27001:2013 .

7. Continual improvement and Surveillance audits

Conduct Internal Audit Activity by Organization and Certification body auditor will conduct surveillance audit for organization every 6 months or 12 months for next three years after organization achieve ISO/IEC 27001:2013 Certification

Based on my Experience

Phase I : Estimated time needed for Implementation ISO/IEC 27001:2013

Estimated Duration needed for Implementation depend on Organization size “ Employees, Systems and Information “

• Small Organization : 50 - 150 Employee

Estimated time for Implementation of Standard from 6-8 Months

• Medium Organization : 150 – 400 Employee

Estimated time for Implementation of Standard from 10-12 Months

• Large Organization : 400 to 1000+ Employee

Estimated time for Implementation of Standard from 13-16 Months

Phase II : Estimated Time needed for Certification ISO/IEC 27001:2013

Case 1 : if there is one or more Minor Nonconformity and the organization try to Correct them accordingly the Certificate can be Issued around a Month

Case 2 : if there is one or more Major Nonconformity and the organization try to Correct them accordingly the Certificate can be Issued around 3-5 Months

Conclusion

ISO/IEC 27001:2013 gives Organization a Perfect Information Security management framework for implementing and maintaining security.

In this Article, I tried to shed some light on new standard and its Mandatory Requirements, Optional Requirements , Structure , Benefits , Certification Process and Estimated time for Implementation and Certification.
