Privacy Information Management System (PIMS)

ISO/IEC 27701 is a Privacy Information Management System (PIMS) that outlines requirements and provides guidance for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving a Privacy Information Management System. 

This new standard is a privacy extension of the renowned ISO/IEC 27001 Information Security Management System, which forms the foundation for information security.

ISO/IEC 27701 builds on that foundation to provide a comprehensive set of controls for the security and protection of personal information.

As an extension, ISO/IEC 27701 must be implemented alongside an existing ISO/IEC 27001 system or in conjunction with a new ISO/IEC 27001 system. 

Privacy Information Management is affected by processing personal information and covers various legal and regulatory requirements worldwide.
