In this article we explain the difference between ISO 27001 and NEN 7510.<\/p>\n

What is ISO 27001?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

ISO 27001<\/a> is th\u00e9 worldwide standard for information security, developed by ISO (International Organization for Standardization). An information security management system<\/a> (ISMS) consists of policies, procedures, guidelines and activities that are managed by an organization to protect its information. An ISMS takes a systematic approach to establishing, implementing, executing, monitoring, assessing, maintaining and improving an organization’s information security to achieve defined objectives. An ISMS is based on a risk assessment of the organization, which is designed to handle risk effectively.<\/p>\n

What is NEN 7510?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

NEN 7510<\/a> is a Dutch standard developed by the Dutch Standardization Institute (NEN<\/a>). Part 1 of NEN 7510 has the same basis as ISO 27001, namely safeguarding the availability, integrity and confidentiality of information by applying a risk management process.<\/p>\n

However, Part 2 provides specific guidance for healthcare facilities and other personal health information managers. The controls in part 2 are written to supplement ISO 27001 and are aimed at a specific target group: those responsible for overseeing the information security of health information, healthcare facilities and other personal health information managers.<\/p>\n

What are the differences between ISO 27001 and NEN 7510?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

There are many similarities, but also a number of differences between ISO 27001 and NEN 7510, which are briefly explained below.<\/p>\n
