ISO 27001 instead COBIT and COSO
Assign topic to the user
Answer:
ISO 27001 is the lead standard about the information security, and most of laws and regulations about information security of all the world are based on this standard.
COBIT is focused on IT governance, which also includes information security, but ISO 27001 is more specific.
Regarding COSO, this standard is also for different things: internal control, event identification, risk assessment, etc. So, again, this standard is not specifically developed for information security.
So, if you want to establish an Information Security Management System to protect your information, the best option, from my point of view, if the ISO 27001.
