The Fundamentals of ISO 27001 with Adam Hollick

In this episode of Exploring Standards, host Jess is joined by Adam Hollick, an ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 Lead Auditor with 12 years of experience in the Royal Air Force (RAF). Together, they dive into the essentials of ISO 27001, the globally recognised standard for information security management.

Adam provides a clear overview of ISO 27001, explaining the purpose of an Information Security Management System (ISMS), how long it typically takes to achieve ISO 27001 certification, and breaks down the six key areas of security covered by the standard.

The conversation also addresses critical questions, such as how ISO 27001 relates to cyber security, its alignment with GDPR requirements, and the differences between ISO 27001 and ISO 27002.

Packed with expert insights, this episode offers valuable guidance for anyone looking to strengthen their organisation’s information security practices.
