Explaining the requirements of ISO 27001 (ISMS) and the benefits of obtaining certification.
What is ISO27001 (ISMS)? This article explains the requirements and benefits of obtaining certification from the basics! It also describes the differences between ISO27001 and ISMS.
ISO27001 refers to "Information Security Management Systems," and as the name suggests, it is an ISO standard concerning information security management systems. It is often abbreviated as "ISMS." Organizations possess a vast amount of information that is utilized in their business activities or accumulated over time. Examples include information about individuals within the organization, such as employees, customer information for companies, contract information, information related to product sales, and development data for system development companies. These pieces of information are invaluable assets for the organization, but if the preservation and management of this information are neglected, what kind of issues might arise? The organization's business activities may not proceed smoothly, trust from customers may be lost, or it could lead to problems that are highlighted in the news as incidents of information leakage. ISO27001 establishes the security, management methods, and management approaches for information related to such organizations. *For more details, please refer to the related links for a clearer explanation.*

■What is the difference from personal information protection? When we hear about information security, the term that often comes to mind is personal information protection. What are the differences and relationships with ISO 27001 (ISMS)? The difference lies in the breadth of the information being targeted. Personal information protection, as the term suggests, focuses solely on information related to personal identification. However, ISO 27001 (ISMS) encompasses a broader range of information, including customer information, contract information, and more, not limited to personal identification information. ■What is the difference between ISO 27001 and ISMS? Both are often referred to as "Information Security Management System" and are used with almost the same meaning. To elaborate a bit, ISMS translates directly to "Information Security Management System" in Japanese. It refers to the so-called "system" in the literal sense. ISO 27001 refers to the international standard that specifies the methods for establishing and operating an ISMS. While there are slight differences in the precise Japanese terminology, it is generally acceptable to consider both terms as having the same meaning in casual conversation.

Our company offers an "ISO certification audit service" that flexibly accommodates scheduling for audits, allowing us to complete audits that typically take two days with other certification bodies in just one day. With fewer audit days, the impact on daily operations can be minimized. Additionally, we conduct audits based on practical experience rather than paperwork, allowing you to primarily explain your daily operations during the audit. Why is this possible? It is because one of our key features is that we employ auditors internally. By employing auditors in-house, we can optimize audit costs and labor. Furthermore, our auditors are relatively young, enabling us to conduct flexible audits tailored to the site, making it possible to obtain ISO certification without burdening management or on-site personnel, not just in terms of cost. 【Certification Standards】 ■ISO 9001 Quality Management System ■ISO 14001 Environmental Management System ■ISO 27001 Information Security Management System ■ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management System (Construction Industry only) *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
