Introduction
The purpose of the Foundation course is to confirm that a candidate has sufficient knowledge of the contents and high-level requirements of the ISO/IEC 27001 standard and understands at a foundation level how the standard operates in a typical organization.
This course is designed to provide the basic knowledge of ISO/IEC 27001 required as a prerequisite for the Practitioner course.
ISO/IEC 27001 Standard Overview
ISO/IEC 27001 is an international standard for Information Security Management. It provides a model to establish, implement, maintain and continually improve a risk-managed Information Security Management System (ISMS).
The standard forms the basis for effective management of sensitive, confidential information and for the application of information security controls. An organization that conforms to the ISO/IEC 27001 standard possesses clear, objective proof of its commitment to continued improvement of control over its sensitive and confidential information.
ISO/IEC 27001, therefore, provides reassurance to sponsors, shareholders and customers that the organization has expert control over its risk management and data security. Due to the diversity of different organizations’ information assets – the ISO/IEC 27001 standard is adaptable according to an organization’s requirements. The design and implementation of the ISMS is tailored to the organization’s objectives, information assets, operational processes, governing legal requirements and regulatory security requirements.
Audience profile
This course is aimed at those who are:
- Supporting the implementation, operation or maintenance of an ISMS within an organization
- Required to audit an ISMS and to have a basic understanding of the standard
- Working within an organization with an ISMS, whether the organization is already certified or is considering certification to ISO/IEC 27001
- Preparing for the ISO/IEC 27001 Practitioner qualification
Pre-requisites
There is no pre-requisite for the Foundation course but an interest or background in information security or service management would be an advantage.
