ISO 27001 helps organisations keep information assets secure. Using this standard will help your organisation to manage the security of assets such as financial information, intellectual property, employee details or information entrusted to you by third parties such as customers.
ISO 27001 is the best-known standard providing requirements for an information security management system (ISMS).
As the world is facing new evolving security challenges, ISO/IEC 27001:2022, which aims to protect the confidentiality, availability, and integrity of organisations’ information assets was updated in October 2022. The part that has undergone the most significant changes is Annex A, Information security controls reference, which is aligned with ISO/IEC 27002:2022 Information security controls, which itself was published in February 2022.
Annex A of ISO/IEC 27001:2022 contains changes in both the number of controls, and their listing in groups. The title of this Annex has also changed from Reference control objectives and controls to Information security controls reference. Therefore, the reference objectives of each control group that were present in the previous version of the standard, have now been removed.
The number of Annex A controls decreased from 114 to 93. The decrease in the number of controls has mostly come from merging many of them. 35 controls have remained the same, 23 controls were renamed, 57 controls were merged into 24 controls, and one control has been divided into two. The 93 controls have been restructured to four control groups or sections.
