- 9. The ISO 27001:2013 standard does not require the organizations to prepare a separate ISMS policy explicitly. However, the organizations can prepare it if they want. The organizations already having both IS Policy and ISMS Policy can continue or merge into one single IS Policy document with minor changes. About IS vs ISMS Information security (IS) is achieved through the implementation of an applicable set of controls. The controls are selected through the chosen risk management process and managed using an ISMS (Information Security Management System). The ISMS includes policies, processes, procedures, organizational structures, software and hardware to protect the identified information assets. - According to ISO 27000:2012 ISMS Vocabulary Document About IS Policy Vs ISMS Policy IS Policy is the responsibility of the Board / Senior Management. ISMS Policy is the responsibility of Executive Management. The board delegate IS responsibilities to the Management, which are achieved effective through establishing, operating, monitoring, reviewing, maintaining and improving the ISMS. - Explained in the PECB ISO 27001 Lead Implementer Course Material
