ISO/IEC 27701:2019 specifies the requirements and provides guidance for implementing a privacy information management system (PIMS) in the form of an extension to ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 27002 for privacy management, within the context of your organization.
By attending our two-day course, you will understand how to implement the principles of ISO/IEC 27701:2019 and the required changes to extend your ISMS. It will help you understand how the requirements of ISO/IEC 27701 provide the basis of an effective PIMS and provides guidance for personally identifiable information (PII) controllers and/or processors, processing PII.
With the full support of a world-class BSI tutor, you’ll learn about ISO/IEC 27701:2019 common terms and definitions, as well as the how to implement the key concepts and requirements.
Prerequisites
You should already have a good knowledge of implementing an ISMS based on ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 27002 and be looking to extend your ISMS to include privacy information management.
A good knowledge of PIMS requirements and terminology is recommended.
You should have previously attended an ISO/IEC 27701 requirements course, and we also recommend that you understand whether a PIMS is currently employed in your organization.
Pedagogical objectives
- Recognize how to extend an ISO/IEC 27001 ISMS to include specific requirements for protecting your PII and implementing a PIMS (addressing both information security and privacy protection)
- Identify where adjustments might need to be made to your ISMS to accommodate your situation and progress made to date, in respect of protecting privacy
- Increase your knowledge of the requirements and guidance contained within ISO 27701, from an implementation perspective
Your learning will be through an activity-based, delegate-centered approach. This will help you share experiences and knowledge with other attendees; bringing alive the information presented and resulting in enhanced retention and application to your own workplace.
