Abstract

Information Security Management Systems (ISMSs) have been playing an important role to help organizations managing their information securely. However, organizations facing many challenges in from establishment phase to optimization phase of ISMSs because organizations have to perform a lot of tasks with various participants and manage a vast amount of documents. As a result, it is difficult for an organization to establish and maintain a good and effective ISMS. This paper proposes an engineering environment to support organizations with ISMSs which is an engineering environment that integrating various support tools to provide organizations with comprehensives facilities to perform all tasks in ISMS life cycle processes consistently and continuously based on ISO/IEC 27000 series standards.
