Why should you attend?
The new version of ISO/IEC 27001 has been recently published and is now aligned with the new version of ISO/IEC 27002, which was published in February, 2022.
The major changes between ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and ISO/IEC 27001:2013 are noticed in the information security controls of Annex A, whereas a few other minor changes are present in the clauses of the standard too. Furthermore, the title of ISO/IEC 27001:2022 differs from the title of ISO/IEC 27001:2013, as now the standard is titled Information security, cybersecurity and privacy protection — Information security management systems — Requirements.
The “PECB ISO/IEC 27001 Transition” training course provides detailed information on the revised clauses, the new terminology, and the differences in the controls of Annex A.

About ISO/IEC 27001 certification
Overview of ISO/IEC 27001 and Its Certification Process
ISO/IEC 27001 provides the requirements for organizations aiming to establish, implement, maintain, and continually enhance an information security management system. The ISO/IEC 27001 certification represents a global benchmark in Information Security Management Systems (ISMS). This certification guides organizations in implementing a structured method for safeguarding sensitive information. It involves a comprehensive framework for pinpointing, evaluating, and addressing information security risks, crucial for maintaining the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of vital organizational data.
