What is ISO 27001?

ISO 27001 is the international standard for information security management systems (ISMS). Published by ISO and IEC, it provides a systematic framework for managing sensitive company and customer information through risk assessment, control implementation, and continual improvement.

Key components

  • ISMS scope — defines which business processes, locations, and assets are covered.
  • Annex A controls — 93 controls across organizational, people, physical, and technological domains (2022 revision).
  • Statement of Applicability (SoA) — documents which controls apply and the justification for each inclusion or exclusion.
  • Risk treatment plan — maps identified risks to specific controls and remediation actions.

Certification process

Certification involves a Stage 1 audit (documentation review) and a Stage 2 audit (implementation effectiveness). After certification, annual surveillance audits confirm the ISMS remains operational, with a full recertification every three years.

Why it matters

ISO 27001 is recognized globally and often required for companies operating in regulated industries or selling into European and APAC markets. It signals to customers that your security practices are independently verified, not self-assessed.
