Planning employees' succession
Answer:
In a certain way both clauses 7.1.6 and 7.2 require that an organization acts when a new employee starts working and/or an experienced employee is going to change of function and we do not want to lose relevant knowledge.

Context example
Answer:
Unfortunately, I have no personal experience with that kind of manufacturing. Nevertheless, let me try to help.
About internal issues:
* what are the main concerns that recurrently appear on production, or quality or commercial meeting, for example. Downtime? Delivery delays? Absenteeism? Defects?
* What are the main opportunities that recurrently appear on the same meetings: Cycle time reduction? Six sigma projects? New raw materials that increase yield?
About external issues: I like to use the PESTEL framework
* New legislation that will demand increased performance for valves that work with VOCs
* Positive economic sentiment is increasing the demand of commodities and new plants are on the way
* More and more concern from society with the protection of workers
* New materials and new technologies can be used in the manufacturing of new generation of valves
You do not need to make things difficult or complex, be simple, be prac tical.

Warning notice in email containing personal data
Answer:
There is no requirement for such “warning notices” in emails. The EU GDPR only speaks about privacy notices that need to be provided to the data subjects by data controllers.

ISO 27001 certification
Answer: ISO 27001 can't certify a website. The ISO 27001 certification is applicable to processes, locations or information related to the website. For example:
- The development and maintenance processes related to the website
- The physical location from where website is accessed
- The information published on the website
Considering that, broadly speaking, an organization has to:
- Define and document a scope based on the needs and expectations of interested parties relevant to information security
- Define, document and communicate an information security policy
- Define roles and responsibilities relevant to operation and management of information security
- Define a risk assessment and treatment methodology
- Define and allocate competencies and resources for the operation and management of information security
- Implement risk assessment and risk treatment
- Operate the security controls and generate the necessary records
- Measure, monitor and evaluate th e information security performance
- Implement corrections and improvements
To increase chances of success, it is important that persons involved have experience in project management and knowledge of the standard.

2 - What kind of standard procedures we have to follow. Please let me know.
Answer: ISO 27001 has a set of documents and records that you need to produce if you want to be compliant with the standard such as:
- Scope of the ISMS (clause 4.3)
- Information security policy and objectives (clauses 5.2 and 6.2)
- Risk assessment and risk treatment methodology (clause 6.1.2)

ISO 27001 and NIST
Answer: First, let's understand both NIST and ISO 27001:
- NIST SP-800 series of documents provides detailed information about processes to select and implement controls for computer security
- ISO 27001 provides general requirements for the implementation, operation, control and improvement of a management system to protect information, regardless of the environment where it is (e.g., physical reports or digital databases). ISO 27001 provides protection through the selection of security controls described in its Annex A, as well other controls that can be added by the organization.
The ISO 27001 Documentation Toolkit has templates that are organized and can be used to implement either the management requirements of the ISO 27001 standard, as well as the most common used information security controls from ISO 27001 Annex A, some of them IT related, and that can be linked to NIST SP-800 documents.
Considering that, you can use the ISO 27001 Documentation Toolkit to implement the overall approach to protect information, and after the identification of controls that can be related to NIST documents, you can use the NIST documents to implement the details for each control. For example, you can use information from SP 800-53 control for contingency plan testing to implement the Disaster Recovery Plan template.

ISO 27001 foundations course
Answer: ISO 27001 Foundations course can add value to your competencies by giving you an overview of how information security concepts and practices fit in a ISO management system frameworks, which are used by organizations world-wide. Since ISO 27001 is similar in structure to other management systems, this course can also be used as a first step in knowing management systems like ISO 9001 (quality management) and ISO 20000 (IT services management).

Materials for large organizations
Answer: Large organizations often require more detailed policies and procedures, because they:
- face a wider range of risk scenarios
- have multiple sites that require different approaches to handle the same risks
Considering that, the point is to increase the level of details in each template and elaborating multiple documents. The problem with this approach is that a manual document control of such a great number of documents may become unfeasible, then you should also consider this when adapting our toolkit to a large organization.
It is also important to note that you may have to create some documents that do not exist in the toolkit (e. g., physical security), because they do not exist in the toolkit because they are not mandatory and smaller companies usually do not need them. -
BYOD Policy
Do you happen to have some examples or a list for some ideas what to put here?
[List of acceptable BYOD devices and their settings]
[List of prohibited BYOD applications]
Answer: For BYOD devices you should consider any asset your employees can bring to work premises (e.g., cellphones, tablets, and notebooks).
For allowed settings you should consider configurations that can improve information protection (e.g., "storage encryption" and "screen locking" should be enabled). For prohibited settings, you should consider configurations that may compromise information storage or processing on the device (e.g., "Bluetooth connections" and "local password storage" should be disabled).
Examples of prohibited applications are unlicensed software, and software no t related to work, even if they have license (e.g., games).
It is important to note that the creation of those lists are defined in sections 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4 of the BYOD Policy, not only in section 4.
