THE ISO17799 NEWSLETTER - SPECIAL EDITION
The official revision of ISO/IEC 17799 is now available (June 2005). This new version has been in process for several years, and introduces a number of siginificant changes to ISO 17799. The old version, originally published in December 2000, has been withdrawn with immediate effect.
The new standard now contains 11 'core' chapters, as opposed to 10, with existing chapters being renamed and re-organized. The new chapter format is as follows:
1) Security Policy
2) Organizaing Information Security
3) Asset Management
4) Human Resources Security
5) Physical and Environmental Security
6) Communications and Operations Management
7) Access Control
8) Information Systems Acquisition, Development and Maintenance
9) Information Security Incident Management
10) Business Continuity Management
11) Compliance.
The new version of the standard also introduces controls to address a range of issues not previously covered. These include topics such as outsourcing provision and patch management. Equally, other areas have been substantially extended or re-shaped, such as employment termination, and mobile/distributed communication.
In addition to the content itself, several steps have also been taken to enhance the "user friendliness" of the standard. The standard has also been normalized to position itself to sit more comfortably alongside related security standards in the future.
