ISO 27001 package question regarding risk assessment
So that means: If we already have implemented several security measures for certain risks, the probability will be low in the risk assessment. This would lead to a quite small amount of not acceptable risks (3 or higher) that would be transfered to Anhang 2 "Verzeichnis Risikoeinschätzung" (currently around 12 risks to be transfered in our case).
Did I understand this correctly? Or do we need to evaluate the risk without taking into account the measures we already have?

If you already have implemented controls you need to take them into account when analyzing the risks, so your understanding is correct. In the Risk Assessment Table, in the last column, you can describe which controls are already implemented.
