ISO 27001:2022 Information Security Management System Course

Learn how the PDCA cycle—plan, do, check, act—drives continuous improvement of ISO 27001-2022 information security management systems, enabling risk-based thinking and resilient organizations.

Apply Clause 4 by analyzing internal and external issues, identifying interested parties, and defining the information security management system scope and boundaries to align information security with business context.

Top management drives the information security management system by establishing aligned security policy and objectives, allocating resources, assigning clear roles, and fostering a culture of continual security improvement.

Clause 6 drives proactive information security planning through risk and opportunity identification, measurable objectives, and resource-aligned action planning for changes within an adaptable ISMS.

Clause 7 enables the ISMS by ensuring adequate resources, competent staff, awareness and clear communication, and well-managed documented information for ongoing protection and improvement.

Drive continual improvement in information security management (Clause 10) by identifying non-conformities, implementing root-cause corrective actions, and embedding management reviews and benchmarking to strengthen the ISMS.

Develop engagement with authorities and industry groups, leverage threat intelligence, and strengthen incident response readiness, incident management, and evidence collection across on-premises and cloud environments for ISO 27001:2022 information security.

Integrate asset lifecycle management, information classification, and secure handling into project workflows. Promote inventories, acceptable use, labeling, secure transfers, asset return, records protection, and documented operating procedures across the lifecycle.

Master access control, identity management, and authentication protection under controls 5.15–5.18, using RBAC, ABAC, MFA, federated identities, and governance practices to safeguard data and regulatory compliance.

Evaluate supplier and ICT supply chain risks, embed security requirements into supplier agreements, monitor supplier services over time, and audit and improve controls for end-to-end protection.

Explore how continuity planning, regulatory compliance, IP protection, and privacy protections safeguard data, enable quick disaster recovery, and support independent reviews and continuous compliance.

Strengthen your information security culture by establishing a clear disciplinary process, securing remote and hybrid work, and enabling rapid information security event reporting.

Learn how to manage ongoing employment, exits, and role changes by securing asset return, revoking access, and enforcing confidentiality to safeguard information, compliance, and resilience.

Explore the design, implementation, and management of physical security perimeters, entry controls, secure areas, and monitoring, and learn how to integrate physical and digital access to reduce risk.

Defend assets with layered physical and environmental controls, conduct risk assessments, and enforce clear desk and clear screen policies to protect data, equipment, and business continuity.

Explore endpoint security, privileged access, information control, and secure authentication under ISO/IEC 27001:2022 controls 8.1–8.5 and 8.18, with practical guidance on least privilege, access restrictions, and auditing.

Explore secure deletion, data masking, data leakage prevention, cryptography, and test data handling to protect information across production, testing, and audit environments.

Master logging, monitoring, and network security through practical implementation, clock synchronization with NTP, secure log management, and web filtering to support incident response, compliance, and risk reduction.

Secure top management buy-in to launch the ISMS project with clear purpose, scope, and a project charter. Build a multidisciplinary team with defined RACI roles, proactive risk identification, and communication.

Define the ISMS scope and conduct a thorough gap analysis to align with ISO 27001:2022, assess current controls, and prioritize remediation for compliant, resilient information security.

Develop and maintain a robust statement of applicability (SOA) by selecting Annex A controls through a risk-based process, documenting justification, and keeping it a living, transparent ISMS record.

Implement and document ISO 27001 Annex A controls, align them with business processes, and develop policies, procedures, and guidelines supported by gap analysis and current documentation.

Establish and monitor KPIs, KRIs, and smart criteria to drive continuous monitoring and measurement of ISMS performance, embedding security into daily activities and enabling ongoing improvement.

Explore internal ISMS audits, management reviews, and addressing non-conformities to drive continual improvement, align with business objectives, and strengthen organizational resilience under ISO/IEC 27001.

Explore the knowledge, practical skills, and personal attributes that define a competent ISMS auditor and the roles of the lead auditor, auditors, and technical experts.

Prepare your organization for ISO 27001-2022 certification by navigating stage 1 readiness review and stage 2 main audit, aligning documentation, scope, risk assessment, and continual improvement.

Learn to maintain ISO 27001:2022 certification through surveillance audits and recertification, embedding continual improvement, strong ISMS governance, risk assessments, and ongoing staff training.

Define information security roles and responsibilities across leadership, it, and users to ensure accountability and a culture where security is lived, guided by control a .5.2.

Leaders define and assign information security responsibilities, empower staff, and foster an isms culture. They oversee controls with audits, metrics, incident response, and cross-department collaboration to enhance security.

Engage with special interest groups under A.5.6 to gain early threat awareness, share best practices, and continuously improve your ISO 27001:2022 information security management system.
