BS ISO/IEC 27035-2:2016 - Incident Management Standards

In an era where information security is a paramount concern for organisations worldwide, the BS ISO/IEC 27035-2:2016 standard provides essential guidelines for effective incident management. This British Standard outlines a structured approach to developing, implementing, and improving incident management processes as part of an information security management system (ISMS).

The standard serves as an identification framework for incident management within the context of the ISO/IEC 27035 series, allowing organisations to prepare for and respond to informational security incidents. It emphasizes the importance of proactive measures in minimising risks and enhancing resilience to potential security breaches.

One of the core values of the BS ISO/IEC 27035-2:2016 standard is its focus on continuous improvement. Organisations are encouraged to establish a culture of learning from incidents, thereby refining their incident management processes and integrating the lessons learned into their operational framework. This iterative process helps organisations to not only address immediate threats but also mitigate future vulnerabilities.

This standard does not operate in isolation. It promotes integration with other management standards, facilitating a holistic approach to organisational risk management. By aligning incident management with these broader standards, entities can ensure that their security measures are comprehensive, consistent, and robust.

Covering all critical areas, including incident detection, logging, assessment, response, and monitoring, the BS ISO/IEC 27035-2:2016 provides organisations with the necessary tools to respond effectively to security breaches. Its structured methodology empowers organisations to manage incidents not only in a timely manner but also with a focus on minimising impact and recovery time.

Organisations adopting this standard will benefit from its established frameworks for role definitions, responsibilities, and reporting mechanisms. It fosters enhanced collaboration among stakeholders, ensuring that everyone involved in incident management understands their roles and is well-equipped to act accordingly.

Furthermore, the certification of adherence to the BS ISO/IEC 27035-2:2016 standard sends a powerful message to partners and clients alike regarding an organisation's commitment to securing information. This transparency builds trust, ultimately bolstering the organisation's reputation in the marketplace.
