NZISM stands for New Zealand Information Security Manual. It is a comprehensive guide developed by the Government Communications Security Bureau (GCSB) in New Zealand that outlines the information security requirements for New Zealand government agencies and their suppliers.
The NZISM provides guidance and best practices for information security management, risk assessment, security governance, personnel security, physical security, access control, network security, and incident management. It is designed to help organizations protect sensitive information and critical infrastructure from unauthorized access, disclosure, modification, or destruction.
The NZISM is organized into four security domains: governance, personnel, physical, and information. Each domain contains a set of security controls that need to be implemented to ensure the security of information and systems.
The NZISM is mandatory for New Zealand government agencies and their suppliers that handle classified or sensitive information. It is also widely used by private sector organizations and individuals as a best practice guide for information security management.
The NZISM is regularly updated to reflect changes in the threat landscape and to incorporate new technologies and best practices. It is an important resource for organizations in New Zealand that want to ensure the security of their information and systems.
