FAQ coming along
Today I'm working on the ISO27k FAQ . We've had one on the website for many years, during which time it has steadily accumulated 'wisdom' (well, content at least!) though piecemeal additions and occasional restructuring. It has evolved. To be honest, it's a bit of a mess. It has lost its way and doesn't really serve its intended purpose. So, time for a re-think. Rather than simply cutting-and-pasting the FAQ into Wix, I'm taking the opportunity to review and update it, s

Progress!
The solution to the Toolkit issue was simple: I needed to add a "file" field to the CMS collection, an option not immediately obvious ... until I scrolled down the list of field types, and there it was, hiding in plain sight. I'm not entirely happy with the layout of the ISO27k Toolkit page , yet, but at least the file downloads are working now. I'd like to add details such as the file last updated dates, plus sorting and filtering options for users, and icons for the differ

Toolkit woes
Recreating the ISO27k Toolkit page is proving tougher than I expected.

Nose to the grindstone
I have transferred the detailed information pages on nearly 100 ISO27k standards from the old website into the Wix C ontent M anagement S ystem, and made a start on structuring and formatting this website. Using a CMS makes it simpler to ensure consistency between the standards, and a little easier to maintain the information when things change - which happens roughly once a year per standard on average. There's still quite a bit of work remaining, though, such as ensuring

Website redesign in progress
Thanks to the kindness and generosity of our donors, I am updating ISO27001security.com from N et O bjects F usion - an ancient , unsupported and decidedly flaky PC website authoring package - to the cloud, specifically a paid Wix subscription. NOF has served its purpose for decades but 'unsupported' implies 'unsecure'. In particular, I could not be sure of the site's availability as a Windows update could easily have rendered NOF completely unusable at any point. As it w
