Answer: Regarding suppliers, ISO 27001 has a control that requires the definition of requirements for mitigating the risks associated with a supplier’s access to the organization’s assets, which does not require to describe detailed practices. This control is covered by template "Supplier Security Policy" that can be found at folder 08 Annex A A.15 Supplier relationships.
If you need detailed rules about how a supplier should behave, you can use the "Security Clauses for Suppliers and Partners" template, located at folder 08 Annex A A.15 Supplier relationships to define the rules you want your vendors to follow.
Sí, estoy de acuerdo contigo Marcelo. Tú podrías ser el propietario, desarrollando/adaptando los documentos, el miembro del consejo de administración los puede revisar, y gerencia puede aprobarlos.
Referring to the situation you described, if the parents are the ones filling in the details for their own children then they are actually acting on the children's behalf so no additional consent would be required.
Understanding ISO 27001
Is my fear true?
Answer: ISO 27001 is a management standard, so most of its requirements are about roles and responsibilities, and how process should be planned, implemented, controlled and improved, with only minimal requirements regarding technical issues like networking and penetration testing (basically what someone in management position should require from his technical staff). So a non technical education wouldn't be a problem to learn ISO 27001.
Answer:
If Incident was submitted as Service Request (or vice versa) it should be re-routed right at the beginning i.e. before further activities take place. This means that, usually Service Desk staff or technician who took over the ticket, should change Incident into Service Request (or vice versa) and "send" it to the right process.
What I understood, having a separate switch/network is not an option right now. Do you have any suggestions on what we can do to minimize or eliminate this risk?
Answer: If you do not have access to the switch and having a separate switch/network is not an option at the moment, your options are very limited.
If you want to treat the risk you could try to:
- Implement cryptography to protect communication between the computers in your network and to protect you files.
- Implement access control into the shared folders in your network.
- Make an agreement with company that controls the switch and specifying the security controls they need to implement.
Other alternatives in terms of risk management are accept the risk (and do nothing), and avoid the risk (e.g., by stopping using the switch).
Answer: The Management Representative is not a required role in the ISMS by ISO 27001, but an organization can assign one if it understands it can make its ISMS work better (for some scenarios, a person dedicated to the specific activities of the management system can better ensure and improve its results).
A CISO can assume the role of MR in an ISMS in case of need (if you have only ISO 27001 our recommendation would be to have only CISO.), but in organizations with multiple ISO management systems, maybe it is better to have CISO and MR as separated roles, because as MR must be competent on the requirements of the multiple management systems the organization has, the CISO is specialized in Information Security, and maybe overwhelmed by activities regarding other managements systems.
Answer: When dealing with business continuity planning, you always must consider the worst case scenario to make a decision, taking in account not only technical and financial issues, but any other issue considered relevant to the organization. So in your scenario, the Maximum Allowable Outage (MAO) should be based on the time that an financial impact would take to be so great that it would compromise business survival.
