Online collections from ISO.org can be a fantastically good deal. With an online collection you get the most up-to-date versions by paying a yearly or monthly subscription fee. By paying the fee, the various standards in the collection can be accessed via ISO’s “Online Browsing Platform”.
I should point out, by the way, that I don’t have any kind of “kickback” deal with ISO.org- I’m just pointing to a good deal and saying, “Hey, that’s a good deal!”
The online browsing platform for online collections is a tabbed interface where multiple standards can be viewed at once.
Depending on your subscription or purchase license status, documents may be downloaded as well. As with all things in the cloud, however, if you don’t have Internets – you won’t have access to your documents. Not such a big deal these days.
The online collections aren’t exactly inexpensive in themselves, but when compared to the cost of the individual standards – literally thousands can be saved.
IT Management – Online Collections
Recently (last week), ISO.org made available a collection of IT related documents as one of the online collections. It consists of 80 documents that are intended to assist an Information Technology professional.
It is a surprisingly comprehensive list within the following categories:
- Governance
- Project management
- Service management
- Information security management (ISO/IEC 27000)
- Risk management (ISO 31000)
- Records management
- Systems and software engineering: application management, software life-cycle processes, system life-cycle processes, architecture description
- Business continuity and disaster recovery
- Energy efficiency
- Quality (ISO 9000)
If you were considering starting down the path of an ISO 27001 or 20001 Registration, this should be one of your first steps.

Pretty Amazing, right?
Pricing, like I noted earlier, isn’t inexpensive – but it is a bargain. The yearly 1 user license is 488 CHF (about $545 USD) and the monthly is only 54 CHF ($60 USD). If one needed to do an intense investigation, a one month license could yield a fast trove of information.
There are also 2-5 and 6-10 user yearly and monthly licenses available.
There are other collections being added – I’ll discuss those in future posts. Here is a link to the current collection of online collections.
I hope you find something you like.
Happy Collecting.
Thank you!
Welcome!
