Get free weekly news by e-mailAuthor: Malcolm Cornish

Abstract: BS 25999-2 (Part 2 - the Specification) was issued in November 2007. Since that time many organizations have been certified and UKAS (the United Kingdom Accreditation Service) has been assessing the audits undertaken by certification bodies as part of its process towards accrediting these bodies in respect of BS 25999.

As a result of all these activities, BS 25999-2 is coming under the close scrutiny of organizations being certified, the certification bodies and UKAS. The overall consensus is that BS 25999-2 has been constructed to a very high standard and has generally been very well received by these three groups. As with any new standard, there are inevitably some areas of confusion and misunderstanding and there are aspects of the standard that are more difficult to comply with than others. In this paper, the author will address the following:
- Management system requirements
- Business impact analysis.
