The '''[[The Open Group|Open Group]] Information Security Management Maturity Model''' ('''O-ISM3''') is a [[maturity model]] for managing [[information security]]. It aims to ensure that security processes in any organization are implemented so as to operate at a level consistent with that organization’s business requirements. O-ISM3 defines a comprehensive but manageable number of information security processes sufficient for the needs of most organizations, with the relevant security control(s) being identified within each process as an essential subset of that process. <ref>O-ISM3 v2.0 2018 p6</ref>

The Open Group information security management maturity model' ('''O-ISM3''') is an Information Security Management Framework that provides an approach for designing, planning, implementing, and governing information security management systems.{{fact|date=July 2018}}

== History ==

The original motivation behind O-ISM3 development was to narrow the gap between theory and practice for information security management systems, and the trigger was the idea of linking security management and maturity models. O-ISM3 strove to keep clear of a number of pitfalls with previous approaches.<ref name="mikko">Siponen, Mikko (2002-08-24).

The {{cite web|url=https://www.opengroup.org/forum/security/infosecmanagement|title=project}} looked at [[Capability Maturity Model Integration]], [[ISO 9000]], [[COBIT]], [[ITIL]], [[ISO/IEC 27001:2013]], and other standards, and found some potential for improvement in several fields, such as linking security to business needs, using a process based approach, providing some additional details (who, what, why) for implementation, and suggesting specific metrics, while preserving compatibility with currentthe most popular IT and security management standards.{{fact|date=July 2018}}

== Availability ==

[[The Open Group]] provides the standard {{cite web|url=https://publications.opengroup.org/c17b|title=O-ISM3 v.20}} free of charge to organisations for their own internal noncommercial purposes.{{fact|date=July 2018}}
