ISO 27001 provides a structured approach to information security, with Annex A outlining 14 control sets designed to mitigate risks and strengthen security measures. These controls cover key areas such as access control, cryptography, physical security, and incident management, helping organizations build a robust Information Security Management System (ISMS).
Each control set addresses a specific aspect of cybersecurity, from securing IT systems and networks to ensuring business continuity and compliance. By implementing these measures, organizations can effectively manage threats, protect sensitive data, and meet regulatory requirements.
Understanding and applying these controls is crucial for maintaining a resilient security posture. Whether you’re working towards ISO 27001 certification or improving your cybersecurity framework, these control sets provide a solid foundation for safeguarding your organization against evolving risks.
