Moving Beyond Generic ISO 27001 Templates: The Quest for Quality
The world of ISO 27001 compliance is intricate. Many organizations, in a bid to quickly align with the standards, resort to generic documentation templates. While this may seem efficient at first glance, the repercussions are often counterproductive.
The Pitfalls of Generic Documentation:
- Misalignment with Organizational Needs: A startup’s cybersecurity needs vastly differ from those of a university. Using mismatched templates can lead to significant gaps in security postures.
- False Sense of Security: Having a document with the right title but inappropriate content gives a false sense of compliance and preparedness.
- Wasted Resources: Time and effort spent on adapting and amending unsuitable templates can be exhaustive, with limited results.
