### [Information Security Indicators](./information-security-indicators) - ETSI GS ISI 001-1 (V1.1.2): ISI Indicators
|
||||
|
||||
Information security indicators have been standardized by the [ETSI Industrial Specification Group (ISG) ISI](http://www.etsi.org/technologies-clusters/technologies/information-security-indicators). These indicators provide the basis to switch from a qualitative to a quantitative culture in IT Security Scope of measurements: External and internal threats (attempt and success), user's deviant behaviours, nonconformities and/or vulnerabilities (software, configuration, behavioural, general security framework).
