We don't edit the language out of books (anymore), we don't cover nude statues (OK, so the Simpsons makes this point better than me), so why the fuck do we accept edited versions of popular songs? When The Darkness hit it big a couple of years ago "Get Your Hands off my Woman" was played, unedited, on the radio - including the words "motherfucker" and "cunt" - what makes them special? Apparently, most parents are stupid - View image here:. I was in the car with my GF last week and she put on a CD featuring Turin Brakes' "Painkiller" - there's a line in that song which has the words "my love, giving me head" - that line was edited out - on a fucking CD!Ī couple of years ago I remember complaints about songs that were edited kids would listen to them, then ask for CDs or to see live performances that /shock/ included swearing. Who is offended by the word "nigger"? Obviously not the man himself, not me, not any of my (white) friends. I spent about 10 hours in my car over the past couple of days - all during daytime and have been listening to BBC Radio 1 (as usual), which is, IMO, the best radio station we have in this country.Īnyway, "Gold Digger" by Kanye West came on (despite my dislike of rap generally I quite like this) and it's immediately obvious that a word has been edited out.

The goals could be to comply with regulations, competitive advantages, preparing for increasing security threats, understand your security risks, etc. You should ask yourself, why do you want to get certified for ISO 27001, what problems do you want to solve and how can a security framework support you. The right definition could also help you negotiate contracts or getting a better rating from your bank, etc. If you set your scope for your ISMS correctly, you are able to demonstrate the implementation of your information security strategy. The controls are assessed separately in your “Statement of Applicability”.Īnother important aspect is that your scope should cover all business sections that are falling under specific security laws or regulations. It has no impact on the controls describes in the Annex A or ISO 27002. The definition of your ISMS scope directly impacts the workload in relation of your covered assets, risk management and business processes. For example, this could be your whole organization, a subsidiary, a business location, a business line, headquarter, etc. It explains what parts, processes or departments of your organization are covered by your ISMS. Why is defining the ISO 27001 Scope important?Īs already mentioned above, the scope statement sets the boundaries of your information security management system. |
