ISO/IEC 27001: Secure Back Up Policy

ISO/IEC 27001 is an international standard for information security management that provides a framework for organizations to establish and maintain an effective information security management system (ISMS). It is designed to help organizations protect their information assets, including information stored in digital form, from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction. The standard also outlines the requirements for information security policies, procedures, processes, and controls. A Back Up Policy is a set of procedures and processes that are put in place to ensure that all information assets are backed up in a secure and reliable manner. This policy should include the frequency of backups, the type of backups, the location of the backups, the media used for the backups, and the procedures for restoring the backups. The policy should also include the responsibilities of the personnel involved in the backup process and the procedures for testing the backups to ensure that they are recoverable. The standard is designed to help organizations protect their information assets from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction.
