About ISO/IEC 27001:2013
ISO/IEC 27001:2013 is an internationally recognised standard for information security management systems (ISMS). Developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), this standard provides a framework for organisations to establish, implement, maintain and continuously improve their information security systems.
ISO/IEC 27001:2013 sets out a systematic approach to identifying, assessing and managing information security risks, ensuring that appropriate controls and safeguards are in place to protect valuable information assets.
Our journey to ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certification
Aware of the critical issues surrounding information security in our operations, we embarked on a journey to obtain the ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certification.
This journey began with a thorough assessment of information security risks and the development of robust security policies and procedures. We Are Fiber established an information security management system comprising several elements, including:
1. Risk assessment
We conducted a detailed assessment of our information security risks, identifying vulnerabilities, possible threats and the potential impact of security breaches. This assessment formed the basis of our implementation and risk-control strategies.
2. Implementation of security controls
We Are Fiber implemented a set of security controls to mitigate the identified risks and safeguard its information assets. These controls included technical, physical and administrative measures, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity and availability of sensitive information.
3. Employee awareness and training
We recognised that information security is a collective responsibility. Therefore, we provided comprehensive training programmes and ran awareness campaigns to educate and empower our employees to adhere to security policies, recognise potential threats and respond appropriately.
4. Incident Response and Recovery
The company developed robust incident response and recovery plans to promptly address potential security incidents. These plans ensured a rapid and effective response to minimise the impact of any security breaches and enable business continuity.
5. Continuous monitoring and evaluation
We Are Fiber established a system for the continuous monitoring and evaluation of our information security measures. This involved regular assessments, audits and reviews to identify any gaps or areas for improvement. By staying vigilant and proactive, we ensure that our security controls remain effective and aligned with evolving threats and industry best practices.
6. Regulatory compliance
Compliance with laws, regulations and industry standards is a top priority for We Are Fiber. We implemented provisions to ensure that our information security procedures align with the applicable regulatory requirements, such as GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), HIPAA (health information confidentiality) or PCI DSS (the information security standard managed by the PCI Security Standards Council). By staying up to date with evolving regulations, we ensure that our information security management system remains compliant, offering our clients maximum peace of mind.
