how to reference clauses and Annex A controls in an ISO27001 internal audit report

Since the standard is licensed, how can we appropriately reference/include ISO27001 Annex A controls and clause requirements in an internal audit report to show which control/clause is not being met?

The easiest way if for you to refer only to the standard's clauses or Annex A controls numbers, describing them in your own way (normally a negative form of the requirement/control). For example:

  • Clause 4.2 a) not met: interested parts relevant to the ISMS not determined
  • Control A.8.1,1 not met: Asset inventory outdated

This way the text is different enough to not be considered a violation of intellectual property.
