OpenARIANA was developed to address the repetitive task of creating policies, particularly Information Security Management System (ISMS) policies. These documents often consist of standardized text that needs to be tailored to individual customers' requirements. By integrating closely with Microsoft Word, OpenARIANA streamlines the process of document creation and customization in professional settings. It offers a user-friendly interface that enhances productivity and reduces manual effort, making the adaptation of standardized policies to specific client needs both efficient and reliable.
itrust maintains a repository of ISMS standards like ISO 2700x in a structured format compatible with OpenARIANA. Users who wish to access these standards can contact us at openariana@itrust.lu. Please include evidence that you are eligible for the standard, such as a license for the requested standard. Upon verification, we will provide the structured standard free of charge.
