What is a Management System?
A management system provides a framework to allow an organisation to effectively manage risks, meet stakeholder needs, and achieve its objectives. These Management Systems can be implemented as a standalone Management System or as an Integrated Management System which combines multiple standards into a single, cohesive structure to streamline operations and eliminate redundancy. The following standards are supported:
[ ISO/IEC 27001 ]

Clear direction.
Practical support.

-
Assess
Understand and assess
Gap analysis against the requirements, a risk assessment that reflects how the organisation actually works, and an honest view of what has to change.
- Gap analysis
- Risk assessment
- Scope and context
-
Build
Design and implement
Documentation, registers, processes and controls built around existing operations rather than bolted on beside them. Multiple standards run as one system.
- System design
- Controls and documentation
- Integration across standards
-
Assure
Audit and improve
Internal audits by a practising lead auditor, management review support, and the improvement cycle that keeps the system alive between external assessments.
- Internal auditing
- Management review
- Certification support
Three properties every control holds in balance
- Confidentiality
- Information accessible only to authorised people and systems.
- Integrity
- Information that stays accurate, complete and protected from improper change.
- Availability
- Information and systems accessible when authorised users need them.
Confidentiality, integrity and availability sit at the heart of ISO/IEC 27001. A control that protects one at the expense of another is rarely the right control. The work is in the balance.
