Course Title: Course in the Fundamentals of Business Information Security Management
The effective protection of information and the establishment of a security management system have become applicable to all organizations, regardless of their size or the nature of their business. The practice of information security has become much more complicated with the advances in technology occurring on a daily basis. Information is a valuable asset in any organization, whether it’s printed or written on paper, stored electronically or sent by mail or electronic means.
To effectively manage the threats and risks to your organization’s information, the establishment of an Information Security Management System (ISMS) has become a critical component of Business Information security. By losing information, such as tender documents, to a competitor, your company could lose millions in revenue. Client privilege and confidentiality are a legal requirement in the Medical and Paramedical field and high profile patients could become unknowing press victims if the confidentiality of their medical visits becomes jeopardized.
This course provides a thorough introduction in the concept of Business Information Security, risk management and insight into the very comprehensive international standard ISO 27001. The objective of the course is to ensure that Managers, Medical/Para medical Practitioners and individuals have the knowledge and practical skills to effectively plan and execute a Business Information Security Management System.
