Summary/Abstract: Currently, ISO/IEC 27001:2005 is the formal specification standard for Information Security Management System (ISMS), against which organizations may seek certification. This International Standard adopts a process approach for establishing, implementing, operating, monitoring, reviewing, maintaining and improving an organization's ISMS. The “Human Resources Security” main clause deals with all three phases of employment: prior, during, and post-employment. There are critical information security controls and safeguards within each of these three elements. This clause helps management evaluate and deploy important controls within these three dimensions of the employment life cycle. People will always be an organization’s greatest asset and its greatest risk.
