[Full-Disclosure] BS 7799 / ISO 17799

[Ian Latter]

N30,

The whole issue of certification can also depend on the 
country you call home (Hotmail Isle.).  AU-DSD, along with
Standards Australia, runs IRAP which provides 
certification for InfoSec assessors;

          http://www.standards.com.au/irap/

The regional dependency is due to the limitation that the 
program(s) are not dependant solely on ISO17799, but also
on additional locale specific requirements, etc ..
