Why an ISO 27001 checklist is useful
The ISO 27001 standard sets requirements for how an organization handles information. Logical, because you want to be ahead of data leaks, hacks or human errors. But the standard itself is written in such a way that you can interpret it in many different ways. And certainly with the update to the 2022 version, quite a few sections were adjusted at the time. Think about:
- New structure and design of Annex A (list of controls).
- 93 management measures (controls), bundled into four themes
- Increased focus on cloud, physical security and human behavior
With a checklist, you structure your approach. You see where your organization already complies and where there is still work to be done.
