ISO 27001, an international standard for information security management, holds great applicability in securing SMEs (Small and Medium Enterprises). Implementing ISO 27001 provides a systematic and comprehensive framework for identifying, assessing, and managing risks associated with information security. By adopting this standard, SMEs in Jamaica can establish robust security controls, protect sensitive data, ensure compliance with regulations, and build trust with their customers and partners. ISO 27001's risk management approach helps SMEs prioritize their security investments and make informed decisions to mitigate potential threats, enhancing their overall security posture and resilience in an increasingly digital landscape.
