Talk to our experts
ISO/IEC 27701:2019 Privacy Information Management System (PIMS) is the first international standard that deals with privacy information management and is an extension to ISO/IEC 27001 Information Security Management and ISO/IEC 27002 Security Controls. ISO/IEC 27701 is built upon ISO’s Annex SL High Level Structure; thus, it can be easily integrated into existing management systems, and is specifically designed to build on top of ISO/IEC 27001 Information Security Management System clause by clause.
Aside to that, the standard provides the framework for organizations to put in place a system to support compliance with EU GDPR, California’s CCPA and other data privacy requirements in managing privacy risks related to Personally Identifiable Information (PII).
