ISO/IEC 27701

ISO/IEC Compliance

ISO/IEC 27701:2019 Certification is the cornerstone of a globally recognised framework for Privacy Information Management Systems (PIMS). At Risk Associates, we understand its importance as it provides a structured approach to managing Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and ensuring information privacy in the organisation. This standard sets forth various requirements for establishing, controlling, maintaining, and continuously improving the Privacy Information Management System (PIMS).

Understanding ISO/IEC 27701

It equips Data processors and Data controllers with the tools and techniques needed to safeguard personal information. By adopting a risk-based approach, ISO/IEC 27701 identifies potential risks and guides organisations in selecting suitable controls, fortifying present and future operations.

ISO/IEC 27701 isn't a standalone champion; it's a trusted ally to ISO/IEC 27001 Information Security Management and ISO/IEC 27002 Security Controls. This international management system standard extends guidance on the protection of privacy, steering organisations towards effective personal information management and compliance with global privacy regulations.
