What are the Requirements of ISO/IEC 27050-2:2018?

ISO/IEC 27050-2 outlines several key requirements for the governance and management of electronic discovery:

Establishing an E-Discovery Framework

Organizations must establish a framework that outlines policies, procedures, and responsibilities for managing ESI throughout its lifecycle. This includes identifying and preserving relevant data, conducting searches, and ensuring proper data handling and disposal.

Legal and Regulatory Compliance

The standard mandates compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements related to e-discovery. This involves understanding the legal context, data protection laws, and privacy regulations to ensure that ESI is managed appropriately.

Risk Management

Organizations must implement risk management practices to identify, assess, and mitigate risks associated with e-discovery. This includes evaluating the potential impact of data breaches, loss of data integrity, and other security concerns.

Data Preservation and Collection

The standard emphasizes the importance of preserving relevant ESI in its original form. This requires robust data collection methods that ensure the integrity and authenticity of the data, preventing tampering or loss during the process.

Documentation and Reporting

Comprehensive documentation and reporting are critical components of ISO/IEC 27050-2. Organizations must maintain detailed records of their e-discovery processes, including the steps taken to preserve, collect, and analyze ESI. This ensures transparency and accountability.

Training and Awareness

Ensuring that employees are trained and aware of e-discovery processes is essential. The standard requires organizations to provide regular training and awareness programs to ensure that all personnel involved in e-discovery understand their roles and responsibilities.

Continuous Improvement

ISO/IEC 27050-2:2018 encourages organizations to continually monitor and improve their e-discovery processes. This involves regular audits, reviews, and updates to policies and procedures to adapt to changing legal requirements and technological advancements.
