Explanation

Due Care refers to the obligation of an organization or individual to implement and maintain a reasonable level of protection over information assets-essentially 'doing the right thing' to protect data and systems. It is often described as the ongoing maintenance of security controls, policies, and practices to an accepted standard. Due Diligence, by contrast, is the process of researching and assessing risks before taking action (the planning and investigation phase). Due Process is a legal concept ensuring fair treatment under the law. BSO 1799 is not a recognized standard (ISO/IEC 27001/17799 are the actual information security standards).
