ISO/IEC Cybersecurity: Securing Your Data

ISO/IEC Cybersecurity is a set of principles and practices designed to protect networks, systems, programs, and data from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction. It includes the prevention, detection, and response to cyber-attacks, as well as the implementation of measures to protect against them. Cybersecurity is an important part of any organization’s information security program and is often a critical component of an organization’s overall risk management strategy. ISO/IEC Cybersecurity standards provide organizations with guidance on how to protect their information assets from potential risks, including malicious attacks. These standards provide a framework for organizations to develop, implement, and maintain effective cybersecurity programs that protect their information assets from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction.
