ISMS (Information Security Management Systems) is the name given to a comprehensive framework by which business enterprises and other organizations can appropriately manage information while protecting classified information. Not limited to computer system security measures, this plan offers a total risk management system that includes basic policies (security policies) for handling of information, concrete plans based on those polices, implementation and operation of plans, and periodic reassessment of objectives and plans.

[ ISMS Standards ]
The British Standards Institution (BSI) developed BS7799 as the
standard regulations for ISMS. BS7799 is composed of
two parts. Part 1 consists of guidelines. Part 2 is composed
of certification screening regulations. In the year 2000,
BS7799 Part 1 became an international standard
as ISO17799. These are implementation guidelines
and not certification standards. Certification
standards correspond to BS7799 Part 2. At
present, however, they have not reached
the level of international standards.
