The standard identifies 5 areas for control:

1. General Security

• Physical Security
• Personnel Security

2. Information Security

3. Information Technology Security

• Systems Security
• Network and Telecommunications Security

4. Business Continuity

• Retailer Security Management
• Retailer Security Management

An organization using WLA-SCS can become certified by BSI, thus demonstrating to stakeholders that their security management system meets the requirements of the standard.

Since WLA-SCS is based on ISO/IEC 27001, you should review our information on Implementing an ISMS as well as ISMS Certification.
