ISO 31000


Origin


ISO 31000 was developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and first published in 2009, with subsequent revisions in 2018. The standard was created by ISO Technical Committee 262 (ISO/TC 262) on Risk Management, which brought together risk management experts from various countries and industries. It was developed to provide universal principles and guidelines for risk management that could be applied across all sectors and organizations of any size, replacing earlier risk management standards and establishing a common framework for identifying, assessing, and managing risks systematically.


Industry Value


For penetration testing and cybersecurity companies, ISO 31000 provides a structured approach to identifying and managing the full spectrum of risks involved in security assessments and operations. Penetration testing firms reference or align with ISO 31000 to demonstrate their capability to conduct comprehensive risk-based security evaluations, ensuring that testing scope and priorities are properly determined based on client risk profiles. The standard helps these companies establish credible risk management processes that complement technical security work, providing clients with confidence that the organization can effectively assess threats, vulnerabilities, and business impacts. By adopting ISO 31000 principles, penetration testing companies can better communicate security findings in business risk terms, support clients' broader enterprise risk management programs, and differentiate themselves as mature organizations that view cybersecurity through a holistic risk lens rather than purely technical metrics.

ISO 22301: Business Continuity Management


Origin


ISO 22301 was developed and published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in 2012, with a major revision released in 2019. It emerged from the need for a globally recognized standard for business continuity management systems (BCMS), replacing the earlier British standard BS 25999-2. The standard was created to help organizations of all sizes and sectors prepare for, respond to, and recover from disruptive incidents that could threaten their operations.


Industry Value


Note: ISO 22301 is actually a business continuity management certification, not specifically a cybersecurity/IT certification, though IT resilience is often a key component. Organizations value ISO 22301 certification because it demonstrates a systematic approach to identifying potential threats and maintaining critical business functions during disruptions. The certification is particularly important for organizations that must prove operational resilience to clients, regulators, and stakeholders. It provides a competitive advantage by showing commitment to minimizing downtime, protecting revenue streams, and ensuring service delivery even during crises—whether those involve cyber incidents, natural disasters, or other operational disruptions.
