Whats changes in AS9100 Rev D
Answer:
ISO9001 has changed drastically since it was referred to as Iso 9000, and the style of auditing has also changed to a process audit approach. The latest change with ISO 9001:2015 has made even further changes, and the additions for AS9100 (the aerospace requirements for a QMS which add onto ISO 9001) have even changed in the latest revision.
I suggest you look over our whitepaper which goes over the clausesof AS9100 Rev D: https://info.advisera.com/9100academy/free-download/clause-by-clause-explanation-of-as9100-rev-d -
Non-EU based controller
· DPAs with processors
· Privacy notices to individuals
· Safeguards for transfer of data – if the EU processor transfers data to another non-EU processor, who exactly should have safeguards in place such as for example SCC and Privacy Shield certification: the controller himself or the specific processors that are transferring data between them?
· EU representative
Anything else you can add?
Answer:
Since you are dealing with sensitive personal data you should also focus on preventing and if necessary notify any data breaches and do not forget about Data Protection Impact Assessments.
To learn more about DPIAs check out our webinar “Seven steps of Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) according to EU GDPR” (https://advisera.com/eugdpracademy/webinar/seven-steps-of-data-protection-impact-assessment-dpia-according-to-eu-gdpr-free-webinar-on-demand/ ). -
Mexican personal data law
Answer:
If the EU GDPR is applicable for your university than I would say that a Privacy Policy would need to be created to raise awareness and prove compliance. But first you need to check in which areas is the GDPR applicable because is most likely it would be applicable in limited cases.

Gap assessment report
ISO 27001 does not require a Gap Assessment Report, and this is not a common document used in an ISMS, so there is no specific template available in the tookits. For gap assessment, I suggest you to take a look at our ISO 27001 Gap Analysis Tool at this link: https://advisera.com/27001academy/free-iso-27001-gap-analysis-tool/. After completing the question-and-answer format you can provide your email to receive the results, informing you what you already have, what needs to be done and suggestions about what to do. -
Documentation of security responsibilities
Answer: ISO 27001 only requires the definition, designation and communication of responsibilities and authorities regarding ensuring the ISMS conforms with the standard and that reporting on the performance of the ISMS is made to top management. Other duties and responsibilities can be added if the organization identified need to do that.
You can document general information security roles and responsibilities in job descriptions, or as a part of the organizational chart, or in the Information Security Policy.
Specific security roles and responsibilities can be documented in policies, procedures, plans, and other documents that you develop as a part of the ISO 27001 implementation.
This article will provide you further expla nation about roles and responsibilities:

Risk assessment approach on ISO 27001
Answer: ISO 27001 does not prescribe an approach to perform risk assessment, so you can choose the approach that better suits your needs.
Asset-based risk assessment is easier to perform, while the process-based risk assessment can provide you a more understandable context to identify and evaluate risks.
These materials will provide you further explanation about risk assessment approaches:

Email addresses and data breaches
We have recorded this in house in the Data Breach Register, recalled the messages to minimize the impact and taken steps to prevent it happening again.
However I am unable to ascertain if this would require reporting to the ICO. My interpretation is that this would not constitute a risk for the rights and freedoms of individuals and therefore would not require reporting to the ICO. Please can you advise.
Answer:
If the only data that was disclosed to unauthorized recipients are email addresses then I would say is safe to say that there is no risk to the rights and freedoms of the data subjects and is not necessary to notify the ICO.

Changes in scope
Answer: Yes, it is possible to certify your company only for the first office without expanding the scope of ISO certification; however be aware that in such case the other offices will be treated as third parties, which could complicate your operations. Such solutions are better for larger companies, whereas for smaller companies we recommend that you include your whole company (i.e. all of your offices) in the scope.
