ISO IEC 27001 Lead Implementer

ISO IEC 27001 Lead Implementer

Master the implementation and management of an Information Security Management System (ISMS) based on ISO/IEC 27001 — the international benchmark for protecting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information.

Course Overview

Become the person who builds information security from the ground up

Information security threats and attacks increase and improve constantly. The strongest defense is the proper implementation and management of information security controls and best practices — and it has become a core expectation of customers, legislators, and other interested parties.


This eLearning training course gives you a theoretical and practical understanding of how to implement an ISMS based on the requirements of ISO/IEC 27001. You will learn to plan the project, understand the organization and its context, assess and treat risk, select and design controls, operate the system, and prepare it for a successful certification audit.


Delivered entirely on the myPECB platform, the course pairs animated video lectures with the full training materials, editable exercise files, a case study, and quizzes — so every concept is reinforced with practice before you sit the exam.


After completing the course you can take the exam and apply for the PECB Certified ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Implementer credential, demonstrating your practical ability to implement an ISMS in a real organization.
