| ISO 27001 ISO 27001 has been available for a number of years, initially as AS/NZS 4444 and then subsequently as AS/NZS 7799. In 2005 it was released as an internationally recognised standard. In Australia, it was adopted as an Australian Standard AS/NZS ISO 27001:2006. ISO 27001 is a practical, internationally recognised benchmark that relies on assessing and managing risk to manage information and asset security. The system, as with all systems should be implemented to reflect the needs of your organisation and consider the current processes, size and structure. The identification and rating of threats and vulnerabilities (including logistics, servers, network management and third parties such as contractors, internet service providers and HR), are a key underlying requirement of the standard.
