In the ISC Security Partner Programme, a team of independently certified consultants help businesses identify their security needs and implement a management process to achieve best practice in protecting their data. The programme is based on the UK government approved BS7799/ISO17799 standard.
By first identifying the business critical processes, the greatest and most likely threats and the potential for loss, the Security Partner Programme ensures that investments in security deliver value.
“It’s well known that businesses face the threat of disruption and financial loss if data is lost or unavailable,” says Bruce Hallas, Information & Network Security Business Manager at ISC, “but there is an opportunity here too. Introducing best practice provides assurance to external organisations that you are adopting a strategy for managing your operational risk surrounding data and for mitigating any potential financial impact.”
“Small to medium sized businesses want to address their responsibility for data confidentiality, integrity and availability, but the current options are expensive and arguably poor value.” he concludes.
Maggie Stephens, Director of Learning and IS Thames Valley University says “ISC’s Information & Network Security Division recently conducted an independent audit review of the University’s framework of controls, as it is applied to the protection of our vitally important information assets. We felt that the work was of such good quality and value-for-money that we are now using ISC again to produce an Information Security Policy for the
University”.
