Request A Quote

With technological advances and online services exponentially expanding in recent years, our lives are ever- increasingly moving online. Our individual and organizational information now lives online and in databases.  Breaches and hacks have been an impetuous for the demand of accountability and better security of our data. Globally, countries and states are passing legislation such as the EU’s GDPR, California’s CCPA, to which organizations must comply. Using international standards like ISO 27001 and ISO 27701 organizations can not only comply with regulations, but have the right competence, processes, and systems in place to more broadly address and mitigate risk to ensure privacy security.

What is ISO/IEC 27001:2022?

The internationally accepted Information Security Management System standard (ISMS) ISO/IEC 27001:2022 (2013) specifies the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining and continually improving an information security management system within the context of the organization. It also includes requirements for the assessment and treatment of information security risks tailored to the needs of the organization. The requirements of ISO/IEC 27001:2022 (2013) are applicable to all organizations, regardless of type, size or nature (i.e., manufacturing and service organizations). 

ISO 27001 has been updated to the 2022 version. PRI Certification recently received ANAB accreditation for ISO/IEC 27001:2022. Transition audits to the new standard revision will begin in early 2024.  

Additional related information security standards PRI Certification provides unaccredited certification to: 

  • ISO 27017 is an international code of practice for cloud-based information that establishes clear controls for information security risks. For cloud-service providers already certified to ISO/IEC 27001, ISO 27017 is a complementary standard that helps reassure clients of their information safety.   

  • ISO 27018 Personally identifiable information (PII): Cloud services providers that process significant volumes of Personally Identifiable Information (PII) can be certified to ISO 27018, alone, or in conjunction with ISO/IEC 27001 and/or ISO 27017. This international code of practice establishes controls for information backup management, information recovery and erasure, procedures for customer disclosure and more.
