Risk treatment, Statement of Applicability and Annex A controls

The Statement of Applicability explains necessary controls and the justification for inclusion, implementation status and exclusion of Annex A controls. It should arise from the organisation’s risk treatment and applicable requirements; copying another organisation’s list does not establish suitability. Distinguish accepting a risk from implementing a selected control.

Conditional operating example

For a hypothetical departed employee, connect the identified access risk to removal responsibilities, timing, system coverage and a record showing access was actually revoked. An approved policy alone cannot show this result. If a system remains outside the stated scope, describe that boundary honestly rather than implying the certificate guarantees its security. Record residual-risk ownership and review changes that affect the treatment.

Connect risk decisions to the Statement of Applicability

Use agreed assessment criteria to identify and evaluate risks, select treatment and assign owners. The Statement of Applicability explains necessary controls, implementation status and reasons for inclusion or exclusion against the reference set. Copying another organisation’s control list without considering your risks breaks the decision trail. Additional controls may be needed for your obligations and activity.

Standard edition and programme limits

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 with its 2024 amendment addresses an information security management system. Risk assessment and treatment, the Statement of Applicability and control results must relate to scope. Certification does not guarantee no attack, security of every product or satisfaction of all data-protection duties.

ISO does not issue certificates. Verify the proposed issuer, standard and activity against any claimed accreditation scope. Consultancy cannot guarantee approval; the competent body evaluates evidence and makes the independent decision. The applicant implements the system and prepares procedures specific to its own operations and operating records. A certification enquiry to Kayra concerns actual activities, sites, application information, authority and impartiality risks; this role does not include designing or implementing the client’s system. A management-system certification body, other parts of the same legal entity and controlled entities cannot offer or provide management-system consultancy; separate contracts do not remove this restriction.

Official sources and application limits

The operating examples are hypothetical, not customer events or guaranteed decisions. The actual standard and competent body determine requirements.
