Answer: In terms of challenges, you can mention production losses due to information security related incidents, fees and legal actions for non compliance with legal requirements, internal confusion regarding who must do what and when, and the difficulties on maintenance of a good public image. An ISMS can help handle all these items. For example, by implementing proper security controls you can minimize the occurrence and/or impact of incidents, and by establishing policies and procedures you can define clear responsibilities and actions to be performed in relevant situations.

For detailed examples I suggest you these materials:
