5. In defence of the BS25999.COM site and to explain its relevance, it has 15 articles on the subject of BS25999, split across 2 navigable sections, part 1 and part 2. The content includes a full explanation of each section of the standard with diagrams and a number of comments from others. The site

3. I put this site and others in my previous edit to try and get a balanced number of links including not only other portals but also two certification bodies, BSI and LRQA. BS25999 is a two part standard and Part 2 is about certification. Surely a link to two certification bodies and the standard
