Documented information

 I've got this question about documented information. Policies or procedures, like Control Access Policy, should be considered documented information Taking into account ISO 27001 7.5.1.b) clause, it seems that the company may decide this issue.

Yes, it is correct. There are some documents that are mandatory for the ISO 27001 (an example is the Access Control Policy, by the clause A.9.1.1). If you want to know the list of mandatory documents and records (remember that they are different things), you can read this article (also you can see non mandatory documents) “List of mandatory documents required by ISO 27001 (2013 revision)”: https://advisera.com/27001academy/knowledgebase/list-of-mandatory-documents-required-by-iso-27001-2013-revision/

Yes, they are considered as documented information. 

 

Sorry for the delay, we have had a problem with the notifications.

Hello Antonio,

Where can I find in ISO/IEC 27001 that these documents are documented information?

Thanks.

Hi Jose Antonio

You can read in the description of the control A.9.1.1 Access control policy: “An access control policy shall be established, documented and reviewed based on business and information security requirements.”
As you can see, the standard establishes that this control shall be documented, so you can consider it as documented information.
