碩士 === 國立東華大學 === 國際企業學系 === 104 === With the emergence of the requirement of information security within a firm, Taiwan’s regulatory authority has required the firms of banking industries, including financial holding companies and banks, to install information security management system (ISMS) since 2007. In this study, we aim to investigate if a firm’s applying ISO27001 certification can lead to better performance and if the earlier a firm apply ISO27001 certification the better it will perform. Employing the data of the firms of banking industry during 2006 and 2015 from TEJ (Taiwan Economic Journal) Databank, the results do not support the hypotheses of this research. Using ISO9000 certification as a benchmark, we further compare ISO27001 with ISO9000 to figure out how impactful ISO27001 is to a firm of banking industry.
