This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.

Understand how ISO/IEC 27001 uses a risk-based management system to establish, operate, evaluate, maintain, and improve information security.

What you will be able to do

• Explain the purpose of ISO/IEC 27001 and how an information security management system supports organizational objectives.

• Relate ISMS context, interested parties, scope, leadership, policy, roles, planning, support, operation, and improvement.

• Describe risk assessment, risk treatment, control selection, the Statement of Applicability, and residual risk at an overview level.

• Connect information classification, access, data handling, physical security, suppliers, remote work, and devices with risk-based controls.

• Outline incident reporting, evidence preservation, response, recovery, learning, and corrective-action responsibilities.

• Identify the evidence used for monitoring, internal audit, management review, nonconformity handling, and continual improvement.

• Create a next-step study or implementation roadmap without confusing course completion with organizational certification.

How the learning path develops

Begin with ISMS purpose, context, scope, leadership, and roles. Continue through risk assessment, treatment, controls, awareness, information handling, access, physical and supplier security, incidents, performance evaluation, corrective action, and continual improvement.

How to study effectively

1. Choose one organization and define its context, interested parties, information, boundaries, dependencies, and draft ISMS scope.

2. Create one risk scenario, assess it, choose a treatment, identify candidate controls, and state the expected evidence and residual risk.

3. Trace one issue from detection through incident handling, corrective action, management review, and continual improvement.

4. Use the course Q&A when an ISMS concept, control relationship, or implementation boundary needs clarification.
