What is ISMS (ISO/IEC 27001)?

ISMS (Information Security Management System) is a framework for organizations to appropriately manage their information assets and continuously reduce information security risks.

ISO/IEC 27001 is an international standard that specifies requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an ISMS. It aims to manage information by maintaining a balance among 'Confidentiality', 'Integrity', and 'Availability'. Certification is granted to organizations that have established and operate an appropriate information security management system, verified through audits by third-party certification bodies.

Background of ISMS Certification Acquisition

In recent years, the business environment surrounding companies has changed significantly, and addressing labor shortages and a lack of specialized personnel has become a critical management issue. As one solution, an increasing number of companies are hiring side-job workers and outsourced personnel. 'Prowiz by Fukugyo Cloud', operated by Another works, is a service that supports companies in hiring highly specialized professionals, including side-job and outsourced workers, to address their management and business challenges.

In providing this service, the company handles important information assets such as corporate information, project information, and personnel information. Therefore, strengthening the information security framework has been positioned as a key management issue. The company will continue to improve its information security level through ongoing improvement activities and promote the construction of a service infrastructure that both companies and professionals can use with confidence.
