ISO 27701: A pathway to privacy and regulatory compliance.

ISO 27701:2019 sets out the requirements and gives guidance for implementing, maintaining and improving a Privacy Information Management System (PIMS) as an extension to ISO 27001.

In this article, Joyce van Luijn-Bonneveld, our voice on privacy protection, discusses the importance of ISO 27701 certification.

As well as explaining what ISO 27701 is, Joyce explores how it can drive continual improvement in privacy and data protection, plus:

• What type of organisation ISO 27701 is most relevant to,
• The relationship between ISO 27001 and ISO 27701,
• How ISO 27701 relates to GDPR,
• And, the benefits of ISO 27701 certification.
