What is ISMS software?

ISMS software enables companies to plan, set up and optimise an information security management system (ISMS). The ISMS software or ISMS tool helps to manage the necessary processes, tasks and documents.

The ISMS software from activeMind.cloud is a SaaS solution (Software as a Service) that is hosted on highly secure servers in the European Union – and is itself certified according to various security standards.

Which companies need an ISMS tool?

ISMS software is essential for companies and other organisations that:

  • seek certification in information security standards (e.g. ISO 27001)
  • must comply with industry-specific regulations (e.g. TISAX, B3S Medical Care)
  • are required to meet legal requirements (e.g.: NIS2, DORA).

Whenever an ISMS is to be set up, software-supported implementation is strongly recommended.

How does ISMS software work?

The ISMS software from activeMind.cloud translates the requirements (controls) of a standard into sequential tasks, provides templates for the required documents (e.g. guidelines, documentation), and brings together all the information required for the certification audit in a structured manner.

Real-time analyses enable those responsible to determine the current status of the ISMS at any time and where adjustments may need to be made.

By using the ISMS software from activeMind.cloud, companies can pass an audit much faster, in a more targeted manner, and achieve the desired certification.

How does AI help in the ISMS tool?

The requirements in the area of information security are often vague and complex at the same time. Artificial intelligence (AI) is therefore increasingly being used in the ISMS software from activeMind.cloud. This helps those responsible to complete tasks more easily and quickly.

For example, we use AI in the ISMS tool to quickly revise and translate texts, but also to analyse documents and provide assistance with complex issues.

How do you make the switch to ISMS software?

If you have previously worked with Excel and other MS Office apps, you can import existing documents into the activeMind.cloud ISMS software at any time. We also offer the option of exporting all data records at any time for documentation purposes or for further processing.

If you are planning to switch from other ISMS software, our support team will be happy to help you migrate your data.

We are currently working on our REST API and interfaces for various applications (Jira, Confluence, Sharepoint, etc.) to enable seamless integration of the ISMS software into your existing processes.

Accompanying advice for your ISMS

There are numerous hurdles to overcome on the way to certification of your ISMS or proof of compliance for your IT security.

Functions and advantages of the ISMS software from activeMind.cloud

The ISMS software is a module of our comprehensive compliance portal with integrated management system.

Translation of the standard into tasks

Standards – such as ISO 27001 – specify in so-called controls what an ISMS must achieve. However, these specifications are often very vague.

The experts at activeMind.cloud have therefore translated the controls from many years of experience into specific tasks. If you have successfully completed all the tasks in the ISMS software, you can also assume that your ISMS has reached a sufficient level of maturity to pass a certification audit or comparable verification.

Effective risk management

Effective risk management

Information security risks are calculated from the probability of occurrence and the amount of damage. These risks must be minimised and residual risks hedged.

In the ISMS tool from activeMind.cloud, you can identify the risks relevant to your organisation and show how to counter them. This allows managers and auditors to quickly recognise whether a convincing risk management system is in place.

Integrated management system

For most companies, information security is only part of the compliance requirements.

The ISMS software from activeMind.cloud is 100% integrated into our compliance portal. On the one hand, you can map several information security standards (e.g. ISO 27001, TISAX, NIS2, DORA, B3S Medical Care) and benefit from synergy effects. On the other hand, you can cover other compliance topics such as data protection or whistleblowing via one system, thus saving money and human resources.

AI support

Setting up an ISMS is a lengthy and often tough task. Internal audits sometimes have to check hundreds of facts.

We use AI to simplify the use of activeMind.cloud’s ISMS software, especially for recurring tasks. This allows managers to focus on the really important aspects in order to strengthen the digital resilience of their organisation.

Costs of the ISMS tool from activeMind.cloud

The ISMS software from activeMind.cloud is a module of our comprehensive compliance portal. The following monthly costs are incurred:

Module information security Incl. controls as tasks and templates for documents for one standard €290
Each additional standard €49

Frequently asked questions about ISMS software

An information security management system (ISMS) is the entirety of an organisation’s processes to

  • to fulfil its own requirements in the area of information security in a regulated manner,
  • measure the success of these efforts and
  • to make the necessary adjustments.

Management systems are typically based on the four steps Plan, Do, Check and Act (PDCA cycle or deming circle). This enables information, data and IT security to be permanently optimised.

ISMS software helps to coordinate the work steps required for an ISMS and to collate documents in a structured manner. Good ISMS tools translate the requirements (controls) of standards into tasks.

ISMS software is also used to analyse all ISMS data (e.g. maturity levels) and thus provide those responsible and auditors with all the information they need for the assessment.

All organisations that want to set up and optimise an ISMS for compliance, certification or other reasons are well advised to use software for this purpose. ISMS software combines guidance, project management, and document management – as well as the documentation of the whole process. Mapping all of these processes manually or across different tools means a considerable amount of extra work.

ISMS software is also particularly suitable for companies that (want to) operate an integrated management system. This is because it allows synergy effects with other standards from the areas of compliance, data protection, environmental protection, fundamental rights, etc. to be mapped.

The functions of ISMS software can be very different. As a rule, the main focus is on translating the requirements of a standard into tasks to be implemented and managing the associated documents. Good ISMS software supplements these core functions with versioning and documentation as well as real-time analyses.

The advantages of ISMS software are manifold. The most important ones include:

  • Translation of controls into tasks
  • Dependent tasks
  • Schedule management and deadlines
  • Definition of roles and responsibilities
  • Quick analyses of the status quo
  • All data in one place

The most important criteria for choosing ISMS software are:

  • First of all, the ISMS tool must of course support the standard according to which certification or compliance is to be achieved.
  • If an integrated management system requires compliance with additional standards, the software must be capable of mapping and managing them effectively.
  • The structure and user experience (UX) of the ISMS software should be designed to for maximum efficiency, enabling users to complete tasks quickly with focus – which typically requires range of supportive features.
  • Data protection and information security of the software should adhere to the highest standards. Only then can you be confident that the software provider has the expertise to deliver a secure and compliant solution tailored to your need.
