About this listen
Protect your organization’s information with ISO 27001:2013.
Information is one of your organization’s most important resources, and keeping that information secure is vital to your business. This handy pocket guide is an essential overview of two key information security standards that cover the formal requirements (ISO27001:2013) for creating an information security management system (ISMS) and the best-practice recommendations (ISO27002:2013) for those responsible for initiating, implementing, or maintaining it.
An ISMS based on ISO27001/ISO27002 offers a host of benefits:
- Improved efficiency by having information security systems and procedures in place, enabling you to focus more on your core business.
- Protects your information assets from a wide range of cyber threats, criminal activity, insider compromise, and system failure.
- Manage your risks systematically and establish plans to eliminate or reduce cyber threats.
- Enables earlier detection of threats or processing errors and faster resolution.
Next step to certification?
You can arrange for an independent audit of your ISMS against the specifications of ISO27001 and, if your ISMS conforms, eventually achieve accredited certification. We publish a range of ISMS documentation tool kits and guides (such as Nine Steps to Success) to help you achieve this.

Zero day: a software bug that allows a hacker to break into your devices and move around undetected. One of the most coveted tools in a spy's arsenal, a zero day has the power to silently spy on your iPhone, dismantle the safety controls at a chemical plant, alter an election and shut down the electric grid (just ask Ukraine). For decades, under cover of classification levels and non-disclosure agreements, the United States government became the world’s dominant hoarder of zero days.

Story
We are in the midst of a global mental health crisis, and mental illnesses are on the rise. But what causes mental illness? And why are mental health problems so hard to treat? Drawing on decades of research, Harvard psychiatrist Dr. Chris Palmer outlines a revolutionary new understanding that for the first time unites our existing knowledge about mental illness within a single framework: mental disorders are metabolic disorders of the brain. Brain Energy will transform the field of mental health, and the lives of countless people around the world.

Story
In The Butchering Art, the historian Lindsey Fitzharris reveals the shocking world of 19th-century surgery on the eve of profound transformation. She conjures up early operating theaters - no place for the squeamish - and surgeons, working before anesthesia, who were lauded for their speed and brute strength. They were baffled by the persistent infections that kept mortality rates stubbornly high. A young, melancholy Quaker surgeon named Joseph Lister would solve the deadly riddle and change the course of history.
