It does not come for free. My company paid for it and procured the approx 80 pages document from ISO itself. Further, it is exact replica of BS 7799: Part 2.
There are other eqully good security frameworks that are for "free". You can try them. Here they are, (1) COBIT 3rd Edition - available at http://www.isaca.org (2) OSSTMM 2nd Edition - available at http://www.osstmm.org (3) RFC 2196 - available in many sites ( search here, http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfcsearch.html ) and (4) you can get more stringent security guidelines provided by your country's central bank - that is if it has one ! regards Kani On Tue, 5 Mar 2002, How ya Doin wrote: > Does anyone know of a link on the International Organization for > Standardization (ISO) 17799 document, where it is posted for free?
