Nine Steps to Success

Achieving and maintaining accredited certification to the international standard for information security management – ISO 27001 – can be a complicated undertaking, especially if you are new to the Standard.

Author Alan Calder knows ISO 27001 inside out: the founder and executive chairman of IT Governance, he led the world’s first implementation of a management system certified to BS 7799 – the forerunner to ISO 27001 – and has been working with the Standard ever since. Hundreds of organisations around the world have achieved accredited certification to ISO 27001 with IT Governance’s guidance – which is distilled in this book.

Now in its third edition, Nine Steps to Success has been completely updated to reflect the implementation methodology used by IT Governance consultants in hundreds of successful ISMS implementations around the world, and covers each element of the ISO 27001 project in simple, non-technical language.

If you’re tackling ISO 27001 for the first time, Nine Steps to Success will give you the guidance you need to get to grips with the Standard’s requirements and ensure your implementation project is a success – from inception to certification.
