By bringing together separate Business Continuity, Information Security, and Risk Management functions, organizations can improve their response to threats. Combining these groups allows them to share information, standards, and tools to more efficiently defend against Advanced Persistent Threats, natural disasters, and other business failures. Integrating these functions can reduce costs by 10-30% by eliminating redundant software, roles, and office spaces. Management support is needed to establish overarching risk policies that the combined group can implement cohesively.
Security automation and orchestration (SOAR) is a part of everyday life in IT. It is the sophistication of that automation, however, that sets organizations apart.
In research conducted by EMA, enterprises deploying automations saw over 50% improvement in efficiency. These slides--based on the webinar--provides insights into this data.

Our Bi-Monthly Newsletter with updates and news on the Certifications and Assessments. Hope you will find it interesting and we look forward to receiving your inputs and feedback.
ISO 27001:2013 is the international standard that provides a framework for Information Security Management Systems (ISMS) to provide continued confidentiality, integrity and availability of information as well as legal compliance.
ISO 27001 certification is essential for protecting your most vital assets like employee and client information, brand image and other private information. The ISO standard includes a process-based approach to initiating, implementing, operating and maintaining your ISMS.
This implementation guide will help you run through the benefits, PDCA Cycle and Annex SL structure in detail for implementing ISO 27001.

A to Z of Information Security ManagementMark Conway
The purpose of information security is to protect an organisation’s valuable assets, such as information, Intellectual property, hardware, and software.
Through the selection and application of appropriate safeguards or controls, information security helps an organisation to meet its business objectives by protecting its physical and financial resources, reputation, legal position, employees, and other tangible and intangible assets.
In this A to Z I’d like to outline some of the key focus areas for organisations wishing to pursue compliance to the ISO27001 Information Security standard.
When your company displays the ISO 27001, your customers will know that you have policies in place to protect their information from today’s big threats.
The 27000 series of certifications cover a variety of information security. You can optimize your time and energy by focusing on just ISO 27001, arguably the best-known and top preparation standard designed to protect your network through an information security management system (ISMS).
Here is a complete guide to ISO 27001. In this guide we will run you through the standard, stages of planning for ISO 27001, the sections for the standard, the certification process and more.

How the the 2013 update of ISO 27001 Impacts your Risk ManagementLars Neupart
ISO / IEC 27001 is soon released in its 2013 edition. Risk Management processes are at the core of this international standard for Information Security Management.
As a security professional, I see shoring up security operations as critical to the stability and success of companies across many industries. The joint ESG and Siemplify research on Security Operations validates these points and many others that I witness everyday. While still an emerging category, Security Orchestration demands are here to stay and accelerating.
ENABLING PROTECTION AGAINST DATA EXFILTRATION BY IMPLEMENTING ISO 27001:2022 ...IJCI JOURNAL
The risk of data theft has increased significantly over the past years. As a consequence, overwhelming damage is caused to institutions and private persons, respectively. Even the widespread ISO standard 27001 was updated recently in October 2022 to integrate data exfiltration aspects. Corresponding new security controls have been introduced. In this paper we review the ISO 27001:2022 with respect to data exfiltration and come up with recommendations on how recently integrated ISO 27001:2022 controls can be used in an operational environment. Based on that, we introduce and demonstrate the effectiveness of a proactive and dynamic concept by integrating a simulation cycle into the Information Security Management System (ISMS) and using cyber threat intelligence to provide us with information about current threats. We provide a prototype for the threat simulation cycle based on a smart combination of established and widely accepted cyber defence tools. Within our evaluation we show the feasibility of our targeted and dynamically configurable simulation of data exfiltration threats and thus support to thwart the actual cyber-attacks in advance. In all we contribute to prevent (or at least make it significantly more difficult) the threat of data exfiltration. Dynamic, threat aware and preventive cyber-defence is our objective, and we provide an updated concept which integrates conclusively into an ISO 27001:2022 compliant ISMS.
Everyday information is collected, processed, stored and transmitted in many forms including electronic, physical and verbal, within all types of organizations. All this is reached by using a huge range of devices and systems starting from personal computers, cellular phones, servers, workstations, personal digital assistants, telecommunications networks systems, industrial/process control systems, environmental control systems, etc. So, organizations are trying to achieve their missions, objectives and their business functions in very complex atmosphere.
Information systems, or better say, their latest achievements are giving competitive advantages to organizations, and they are helping organizations to offer the best for their clients. However, now it is a known fact that same achievements have become serious threats of losing of functions, image, or reputation of organization.
2. ABSTRACT:
As new and unusual threats continue to target your company as a whole, the
mechanisms that are used for defending the company and responding to incidents need
to be aligned. Most companies will have separate Business Continuity, Information
Security and Risk Management functions, each of these will have responsibility is
responding to the threats. By bringing these three groups together they can share a
common ground and set of standards. Their combination will result in cost savings and
efficiency improvements. You will be able to do more with less, integrate tools and
analysis.
4. Different Standards – Complementary or Competing?
ISO 27001 and 27002 are being updated this year (2013). Number of controls is down
from 133 to 113 but extra guidance is provided. There will be more emphasis on
accountability and consistency. Number of security categories now increased to 14 and
will now include Cryptography, Operations Security and Supplier Relations.
ISO 27031 - Guidelines for ICT readiness for business continuity
BS 25999 / ISO 22301 Business Continuity Management Systems
ISO 31000 Risk Management Principles and Guidelines
ISO 31010 Risk Management Risk Assessment Techniques.
5. Tools
Risk Management will use a Governance, Risk and Compliance tool.
Information Security will use a Security Information and Event Management tool.
Business Continuity will use Impact Analysis, Incident Management and Response tools.
6. How to combine these business functions
Must have support for top management.
Start with Risk Management Policies and Standards.
Will be some overlap with BCP and InfoSec.
Implement the specific BCP and InfoSec policies and standards that are not effectively
covered
7. Cost savings
Cost savings will range from 10% to 30%
Achieved by cutting out unnecessary software packages.
Reducing redundant roles.
Moving to the same office space.
