Most of the required skills for an ISMS will depend on the ISMS scope. For example, most of the ISMS competencies when the scope covers financial data and processes will be different if the scope covers data center operations.

Some common competencies regardless of the scope are:
- Standard: knowledge of ISO 27001 standard
- Compliance: to identify interested parties and their requirements
- Audit: to manage audit programs, identify nonconformities, and perform follow up
- Documentation: for the development of policies and procedures
- Risk Management: to teach and guide employees during risk assessment and risk treatment process
- Human resources management: to provide awareness and training activities
- Project management: for the implementation of the standard
