Query on ISO 27001:2022 SOA
I have a question where I need your help:
You can refer to this link:
https://advisera.com/27001academy/knowledgebase/the-importance-of-statement-of-applicability-for-iso-27001/
Now for the ISO 27001:2022 SOA
do we need to add a column on how each control is implemented or it is not mandatory?
and only the following columns are sufficient:
- definition of which controls (security measures) will be applied, covering the suggested controls from ISO 27001 Annex A
- justification for inclusion of controls that are applicable
- the implementation status of applicable controls (i.e., if they are implemented or not)
- justification for the exclusion of controls from Annex A that are not applicable
Assign topic to the user
ISO 27001 does not prescribe that information about how a control is implemented needs to be included in the SoA (the four items you listed are the only ones mandatory to be included in the SoA).
However, we highly recommend including in SoA this information, because since SoA is a document that summarizes security practices adopted by an organization, this additional information makes the SoA a more useful document.
