ISO 27001:2022 is the revised information security management standard.
The start of the transition audits starts from 01.06.2023. The certificate holder completes the ISO/IEC 27001 transition request form by 31.12.2023. Audits according to ISO/IEC 27001:2013 are carried out until 31.06.2024. Completion of the certificate holder’s migration process shall be implemented by 31.10.2025.
By adopting ISO 27001:2022 you will provide your organization with the framework to establish a management system that recognizes the real risks in information security and ensures that you have implemented controls to reduce and manage those risks.
There are three basic principles involved in managing information security: confidentiality, integrity, and readiness. ISO 27001:2022 will enable you to document the integrity of your data, strengthen your commitment to the proper management of information and prepare you to deal with potential problems in your electronic security.

It is especially important for companies whose information is sensitive and critical, such as information management (IT) companies, banks, financial companies, healthcare organizations, public services and generally companies that manage information on behalf of third parties.
