ISO 27001 certification helps deliver measurable difference for BT
2nd July 2008
An international security standard is giving BT’s customers peace of mind - and helping the company secure major deals.
ISO27001 - an international standard designed around 133 security controls - provides a model for setting up and running an effective information security management system.
The company now has 26 certificates covering more than 60 key sites and services - and 20 new sites have been earmarked for certification.
According to global head of IT governance for bid security and certifications Lou Garcia, this demonstrates that BT meets security control requirements - and shows a high level of security governance, especially in the area of risk management. Lou said: “Many of BT’s most significant customers demand this certification for the services BT provides - and, as demand from our customers increases, so does our programme of certification.”
