Security Controls

ISO/IEC 27002

Information Security Controls

Formal standard Global ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 27 Since 2005

The companion control catalogue to ISO/IEC 27001: for each control, what it is for, how to implement it, and what other guidance applies. The 2022 revision restructured 114 controls into 93 across organisational, people, physical and technological themes.

It introduced attributes (control type, security property, operational capability) so controls can be mapped to other frameworks mechanically instead of by hand.
