Information security & safety
What does information security & IT Security mean?
The terms “information security” and “IT security” are used interchangeably and relate to:
- Availability and continuity: ensuring that information and information-processing assets are available to users at the right time and place;
- Integrity and reliability: ensuring the correctness, completeness, timeliness and verifiability of information and information processing;
- Confidentiality and exclusivity: protecting information from being accessed and mutated by unauthorised persons. Information can only be accessed by those authorised to do so.
IT Security effect on your business continuity: business continuity plan
IT security is a very essential part of your organisation's business continuity and thus business continuity plan. Is there a plan in place in case of a calamity, such as a serious hack in the organisation's IT infrastructure? Business continuity does not only relate to, for instance, the uptime of your data connections or cloud infrastructure. If your data is unavailable, this obviously has a one-to-one impact on your business continuity.
Get IT security right
Traditional preventive IT security solutions are not enough today due to the rapid evolution of cyber threats and the growing complexity of the IT landscape. Ensure proper IT security by supplementing your IT with more advanced strategies and technologies. For example, properly set up your rights structure with Identity Access Management or make sure your employees are prepared for phishing attacks.

Does your organisation have its information security & IT Security in place?
It always starts with having an information security policy. This covers all kinds of laws and regulations you need to comply with, information security standards and/or additional internal policies. Think of the AVG, ISO27001, NEN7510 and the future NIS2. Perhaps there are also in-house organisational policies, such as the use of company equipment or policies on BYOD and passwords. Information security also hinges on the following points:
- A policy starts with a vision from the management
- How is the organisation doing? Has a baseline measurement of IT security been carried out?
- Are the basic measures of IT security in order? Do you know what the basic measures entail?
- Are you really in control of your IT security?
- Are your employees aware?

Responsibility in IT security
There is often the idea that when you outsource your IT, the responsibility automatically shifts to the IT partner. This is only partly true, because there are always parts for which the organisation itself remains responsible at all times. Do you know which parts these are and what responsibilities you have within IT security? Read all about it in this blog.

Information security: think about the risks you can and want to take
Investments in IT security must be balanced with your organisation's risk profile and the extent to which you wish to mitigate risks (risk appetite).
