ISO19770-1 ISO 19770-1 ISO/IEC 19770-1:2006 Software Asset Management Processes
This standard establishes a structured baseline for organizations to implement an integrated set of processes for Software Asset Management (SAM).
SAM is """"the business practice of managing and optimizing the purchase, installation, utilization, maintenance, and replacement of all software assets within an organization. Organizations adopt SAM for several reasons, including avoiding legal problems, saving money and time, and reducing security risks."""" (BSA definition)
The aim of the standard is to help you achieve good practice and manage your software more efficiently so that management and other organizations can be confident of the quality and adequacy of your processes.
Protect your organisation against software piracy
Use ISO/IEC 19770-1:2006 to protect your organisation from the costs and reputation damage of being accused of software piracy. Software piracy is """"the unauthorised copying or distribution of copyrighted software. This can be done by copying, downloading, sharing, selling, or installing multiple copies onto personal or work computers. What a lot of people don't realise or don't think about is that when you purchase software, you are actually purchasing a license to use it, not the actual software. It is that license that tells you how many times you can install the software, so it's important to read it. If you make more copies of the software than the license permits, you are pirating."""" (BSA guidance).
