It can be used by small, medium and large organisations in most commercial and industrial sectors to “reassure customers and suppliers that information security is taken seriously…because they have in place state-of-the-art processes to deal with information security threats and issues.” For further information, visit www.iso.ch/iso/en/commcentre/pressreleases/2005/en/CatalogueDetailPage.CatalogueDetail?CSNUMBER=42103
