Cybersecurity is integral to any data-driven business, but building an effective cybersecurity apparatus can be challenging, if not outright daunting. Outside of industry-specific regulations, simply grasping the complexity of modern security threats and IT infrastructure has become an intellectual discipline on its own. That’s why compliance frameworks exist to help companies like yours best implement environments that can meet modern cyber threats.

One organization, the ISO, has dedicated significant resources to develop best practices and frameworks for organizations like yours to build effective and scalable cybersecurity systems that meet both the challenges of modern threats and the demands of modern compliance. ISO has released a series of documents, called the ISO 27000 series, to speak directly to these challenges.

While we have previously discussed ISO 27001 and its importance to data-driven businesses, we will now expand that discussion into the next document, ISO 27002, and why it’s important to your organization.
