Hi
There is now a new certification - with ISO adopting BS 7799. It is ISO
27001. Shortly to be out. BS 7799 is also changing slightly.
Best regards,

I wasn't aware that there is such a thing as an 'ISO17799' certification.
I'm happy to look into it.

ISO17799 is a code of practice for information security. BS7799:2 is a
standard specification for information security management systems (ISMS).

You CAN achieve certification against BS7799:2. In order to be awarded a
certificate, a BS7799 assessor will audit the ISMS. The assessor cannot also
be a consultant. There are very strict rules about this. The assessor will
work for a Certification Body (such as Det Norske Veritas and BSI Assessment
Services Limited).

Hope this helps.

John
