Overview What You Will Learn Curriculum Instructor

Course Overview

ISO 27701:2019 is the international standard for Privacy Information Management Systems (PIMS), designed to extend ISO 27001 by incorporating privacy-specific requirements. With increasing global concerns around data protection and compliance with regulations like GDPR, mastering ISO 27701 has become essential for organizations that process personal information. Learning about this standard not only ensures compliance but also strengthens trust, minimizes privacy risks, and demonstrates a robust commitment to information security and data privacy.

This course begins with an introduction to privacy, management systems, GDPR compliance, and essential vocabulary before exploring ISO 27001 fundamentals. It then moves into data protection and the structure of ISO 27701, providing a walkthrough of its key requirements. You will learn how to initiate a PIMS project, implement effective risk management strategies, and address privacy-related risks during implementation. The course also covers monitoring, audits, continual improvement, and concludes with a detailed explanation of ISO 27701 certification and the audit process.

This chapter-based course equips learners to implement, monitor, and certify ISO 27701, ensuring compliance, managing privacy risks, and embedding trust in organizational data handling practices.
