NIST vs ISO 27001: what's best for your business?

Compliance frameworks equip your company with the best tool to assess how effectively crucial data are collected, stored and processed. Safe data are step 1 on the path to actionable, valuable, data. Is your company effectively protecting the integrity and safety of business and customer data? 

NIST and ISO 27001 can help you answer this crucial question, in slighlty different ways. NIST (National Institute of Standard and Technology) is an agency within the U.S. Department of Commerce that helps drive innovation and growth for companies within the tech landspace. NIST is a set of guidelines outlined by the agency to help organizations plan and execute their security frameworks to minimize risks - it's not a certification per se. ISO 27001 is: it details specific controls and policies to be put in place, eventually proven by the certification itself. 

NIST is an ongoing path forward, ISO 27001 is often erroneously treated as a goal in itself: how to make the best out of both? Join the session and learn everything on:
