‘Physical security’ is an essential part of ISO 27001, and thus information security, yet it is a topic which is often avoided by most InfoSec practitioners.

Michael Brophy’s talk will provide some common sense ideas on how to secure sensitive areas of your organisation, and help you to ensure that critical equipment and assets remain protected. Michael’s presentation will draw upon Certification Europe’s extensive experience over the last decade of assessing a wide variety of organizations against ISO 27001, which have included assessing best practice with regards to physical security.
