When ISO 27001 is optimized for speed, it’s an amazingly effective and efficient way to manage security and compliance.

 

Today’s guest is one of our most seasoned ISO experts in both client-facing and training roles. 

 

In this episode, I interview Rich Stever, IT Security Auditor at Pivot Point Security, about key artifacts for optimizing your ISMS.

 

What we talked about:

  • Key artifacts of the ISMS, including security management policy
  • Objectives during your ISMS refresh
  • Privacy, ISO 27701 extensions, and all about the Information Security Management Committee
  • Poe Dameron (yes, the Star Wars pilot)
