ISO 27701 – Privacy Information Management System Compliance
The ISO 27701:2019 standard extends ISO 27001 to include privacy-specific requirements, enabling organizations to establish, implement, maintain, and continuously improve a Privacy Information Management System (PIMS). It provides a comprehensive framework for managing personal data in accordance with global privacy laws, such as the GDPR, India’s DPDPA, and other relevant data protection regulations.
At Shieldbyte Infosec, we help organizations integrate privacy governance into their existing ISMS to ensure responsible data handling, regulatory compliance, and enhanced stakeholder trust. Our ISO 27701 consulting and audit services focus on building a structured privacy framework that safeguards personal information throughout its lifecycle. Our team of certified ISO 27701 and ISO 27001 lead auditors provides end-to-end support – from gap analysis and documentation to privacy risk assessments, data mapping, and readiness for certification audits.
