ISO31000 (ISO 31000) Risk Management Guidelines

ISO 31000:2009 Risk management – Principles and guidelines provides principles and generic guidelines on risk management. It can be used by any public, private or community enterprise, association, group or individual in any industry or sector.

ISO 31000:2009 can be applied throughout the life of an organisation, and to a wide range of activities, including strategies and decisions, operations, processes, functions, projects, products, services and assets.

ISO 31000:2009 can be applied to any type of risk, whatever its nature, whether having positive or negative consequences.

ISO 31000:2009 is designed to be utilised to harmonise risk management processes in existing and future standards. It provides a common approach in support of standards dealing with specific risks and/or sectors, and does not replace those standards.

It is not currently possible for an organisation to achieve certification against this Standard.

We also offer this Standard with the two other essential members of the ISO31000 family in our ISO31000 Risk Management Kit.

EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) - An Implementation and Compliance Guide, Second Edition

An in-depth guide to the changes your organisation needs to make to comply with the EU GDPR.

 

“It’s practical approach to various aspects of the GDPR will be of value to DP practitioners in organisations of all sizes”

Laura Linkomies

Privacy Laws and Business Report, September 2017

 

The Regulation, which came into force on 25 May 2018, applies to all data controllers and processors that handle EU residents’ personal information.

All organisations – wherever they are in the world – that process the personal data of EU residents must comply with the Regulation. Failure to do so could result in fines of up to €20 million or 4% of annual global turnover – whichever is greater.

This book provides a detailed commentary on the GDPR, explains the changes you need to make to your data protection and information security regimes, and tells you exactly what you need to do to avoid severe financial penalties.

Application Security in the ISO 27001 2013 Environment - Second edition

Web application security as part of an ISO 27001-compliant information security management system

Web application vulnerabilities are a common point of intrusion for cyber criminals. As cybersecurity threats proliferate and attacks escalate, and as applications play an increasingly critical role in business, organizations urgently need to focus on web application security to protect their customers, their interests, and their assets.

Although awareness of the need for web application security is increasing, security levels are nowhere near enough: according to the 2015 Trustwave Global Security Report, 98% of tested web applications were vulnerable to attack.

SMEs in particular should be very concerned about web application security: many use common, off-the-shelf applications and plugins—such as Internet Explorer, Java, Silverlight, and Adobe Reader and Flash Player—which often contain exploitable vulnerabilities.

Application Security in the ISO 27001:2013 Environment explains how organizations can implement and maintain effective security practices to protect their web applications—and the servers on which they reside—as part of a wider information security management system by following the guidance set out in the international standard for information security management, ISO 27001.

The book describes the methods used by criminal hackers to attack organizations via their web applications and provides a detailed explanation of how you can combat such attacks by employing the guidance and controls set out in ISO 27001.

 

Product overview

  • Second edition, updated to reflect ISO 27001:2013 as well as best practices relating to cryptography, including the PCI SSC’s denigration of SSL in favour of TLS.
  • Provides a full introduction to ISO 27001 and information security management systems, including implementation guidance.
  • Describes risk assessment, management, and treatment approaches.
  • Examines common types of web app security attack, including injection attacks, cross-site scripting, and attacks on authentication and session management, explaining how each can compromise ISO 27001 control objectives and showing how to test for each attack type.
  • Discusses the ISO 27001 controls relevant to application security.
  • Lists useful web app security metrics and their relevance to ISO 27001 controls.
  • Provides a four-step approach to threat profiling and describes application security review and testing approaches.
  • Sets out guidelines and the ISO 27001 controls relevant to them, covering:
    • input validation
    • authentication
    • authorization
    • sensitive data handling and the use of TLS rather than SSL
    • session management
    • error handling and logging
  • Describes the importance of security as part of the web app development process
