Welcome to the ISO 27001 and ISO 27002 Open Guide!

This site is an “open” community initiative known as the “Wiki” and is dedicated to documenting ISO27002 (ISO17799) and ISO27001, including implementation and certification issues. This is a public site, which means that YOU can contribute and help. You are free to improve existing pages and create additional ones (see QwikiSyntax for more on this). We hope that together we can come up with a definitive guide to standards.
