Study the literature on the international standard from the ISO 27000 family (ISO27001 Security).
Knowledge and application of the international standards from the ISO/IEC 27000 family are extremely important for employees in education, as educational institutions manage large amounts of personal, sensitive, and confidential data — including information about students, teachers, parents, and administrative staff. In a digital environment that increasingly relies on cloud tools and online platforms, the risks of cyber threats are becoming more significant. For this reason, understanding and applying these standards helps build systematic, lawful, and ethical information protection.
This activity is not graded, but due to the reasons mentioned above, it is important to become familiar with the ISO/IEC 27000 standards.
You should study the key areas and measures within the 27000 standard family that are applicable and form the foundation of cybersecurity in educational institutions:
- Information security management (ISO/IEC 27001)
- Security controls (ISO/IEC 27002)
- Risk management (ISO/IEC 27005)
- Cloud security (ISO/IEC 27017, 27018)
