Abstract: This paper aims to present the ISO/IEC 27001 Standard under the implementation of co-opetition strategy, based on the manual of ISO/IEC 27001. In that case, the 'Plan-Do-Check-Act' (PDCA) model is applied to information security management system processes, in combination with co-opetition's 'value net' framework so as to highlight the significance of protecting information assets and assuring integrity and safety in a co-opetitive environment. Consequently, the purpose of this study is to discuss whether the adoption of ISO/IEC 27001 will improve inter-organisational communication among competitors and will contribute to the development of a more efficient information security management system within and beyond organisations.
