ABOUT CETBIX ISMS

The basics

What are the differences between Cetbix ISMS, Cetbix ISMS-R, Cetbix ISMS-F and Cetbix ISMS-ICS?

All the listed products are built on the Cetbix ISMS. This means, one has to use the Cetbix ISMS to be able to activate those other modules.

How Cetbix ISMS differentiate itself

• Comes with both qualitative and quantitative Risk Analysis (SLE, ARO, ALE, Cost Benefit, IRR, and many more).
• General available as a cloud solution and on-premises.
• Manage your projects and incidents on one platform.
• One tool for all entities, branches, and locations - Get all security posture of all entities on one platform.
• Cetbix ISMS coordinates all your security efforts both electronically, physically, coherently, cost-effectively, consistency, and enables organizations to prove to potential customers that they take the security of their data seriously.
• Cetbix ISMS is portable and simple when compared to other ISMS tools, which come with different distinct features. For example, various ISMS do not make a distinction between controls that apply to a particular organization and those which are not, while the others prescribe a risk assessment that has to be performed to identify each control whether it is required to decrease the risks and if it is, to what extent it should be applied.
• Cetbix ISMS considers usability and uses a single standard that makes it simple and portable for practical use.
• Documentation is underrated in the context of Cetbix because most organizations implementing other ISMS tools invest more time writing documents than they expected.
• Digital documents ready for ISO27001 certification
• NIS/NIST compliant & many more
• Cetbix ISMS enhances information sources, capacities, decision strategies, staff, and organization attitudes toward security-related issues and helps to close the gap between technology and humans in the context of information security management.
• Cetbix ISMS avoids the oversimplified generalized guidelines that neglect the verification of the difference in information security requirements in various organizations.
• Cetbix ISMS provides a methodology that focuses on the issue of how to sustain and enhance organization cybersecurity through a dynamic process that involves: awareness of the situation, integration control, and gaps closing.
• Cetbix ISMS contributes to a more reliable, good practice of information security measures that help to educate leaders and secure the participation of employees in the context of information security management.
• Cetbix ISMS enhances collaboration between different groups of employees by enabling them to work jointly towards the mitigation of cybercrimes.

Asset Classification

The process of setting up a data inventory with Cetbix is quite simple.

• Information Confidentiality Classification Scheme: Information are classified in terms of legal requirements. value, criticality, and sensitivity to unauthorized disclosure or modification.

• Handling of Assets: Procedures drawn up for handling processing, storing and communicating information consistent with its classification.

• Sensitivity Level: Classifying data as to sensitivity to assure that proper security protection is in place appropriate with the given data set.

• Retention Period: Consistent with records management practices, ensuring the period in which data is to be retained, to assure that data's availability and integrity for that retention period.

• Data Utilization: Establishing appropriate procedures for how data is utilized. This includes access restrictions, proper handling, logging, and auditing.

• Data Back-up: Assessing how back-up copies of data and software are created.

• Management of Storage Media: Processes to ensure proper management of storage media, including restrictions of types of media, audit trails for movement of media, secure disposal of media no longer in use, and redundant storage.
