IASME GOVERNANCE

The IASME Governance standard was developed over several years during a government funded project to create a cyber security standard which would be an affordable and achievable alternative to the international standard, ISO 27001.

​

IASME Governance is risk based and includes key aspects of security such as incident response, staff training, planning and operations. The standard allows the small companies in a supply chain to demonstrate their level of cyber security for a realistic cost and indicates that they are taking good steps to properly protect their customers’ information. The IASME Governance assessment includes a Cyber Essentials assessment and GDPR requirements and is available either as a self-assessment or on-site audit.

​

Furthermore, companies may wish to seek the IASME Gold certification. This is an independent on-site audit of the level of information security provided by your organisation. It offers a similar level of assurance to the internationally recognised ISO 27001 standard but is simpler and often cheaper for small and medium-sized organisations to implement.

​

With supply chain security such a hot topic now, we believe the IASME Governance standard is a great place for businesses to start to demonstrate their own cyber security posture.
