ISO 27001 advocates the use of an Information Security Management System (an ISMS for short), which is made up of a standardised set of policies, processes and procedures to enable you to identify what information needs to be protected, what types of protection you require and what mitigating actions can be taken to address any identified risks.  In effect, your ISMS outlines the approach you take to managing your information security.

Very good explanation of ISO 27001 auditing, with real use case experience which is very important for attendees.

After a bad experience with a previous provider, we looked to URM for QSA support. The URM QSA we have worked with is phenomenal, and considerably better than our previous QSAs. My team enjoy working with him, and find him to be extremely credible and effective.
