|
|
International standard for information security management systems (ISMS).
|
|
The most widely adopted security certification globally — ~60,000 certified
|
|
organizations. Requires: risk assessment, security controls (Annex A, 93
|
|
controls across 4 domains), continuous improvement (Plan-Do-Check-Act),
|
|
management review, internal audit.
|
|
|
|
Who must comply: Self-selected — enterprises pursue ISO 27001 certification
|
|
because supply chain partners and regulators require it. Increasingly mandatory
|
|
for: cloud providers, government contractors, critical infrastructure, and
|
|
regulated financial institutions in multiple jurisdictions.
|
|
|
|
Penalties: No direct fines. Losing certification means losing business.
|
|
|
|
Why it matters: ISO 27001 is the universal baseline. It is the entry-level
|
|
certification that opens every other regulated market. The gate stack maps
|
|
to Annex A controls directly (A.9 access control, A.12 operations security,
|
|
A.16 incident management, A.18 compliance). First-mover advantage: the ISO
|
|
27001 audit market is mature ($68B) and entirely manual (auditors flip through
|
|
binders). A gate stack that produces audit evidence automatically is not
|
|
competing with other software — it is competing with binders.
