The revision mainly focused on Annex A, where its controls were restructured into four themes, and the number was reduced from 114 to 93 controls.
The four themes of the security controls of ISO/IEC 27001:2022 are:
Organizational Controls
- Information Security Policies: Develop and implement comprehensive security policies.
- Incident Management: Have processes in place for reporting and responding to security incidents.
People Controls
- Awareness and Training: Ensure employees understand security risks and practices
- Screening: Conduct background checks during recruitment.
Physical Controls
- Secure Areas: Protect physical access to information processing facilities.
- Equipment Security: Prevent loss or damage to assets.
Technological Controls
- Access Control: Restrict system access based on roles and responsibilities.
- Cryptography: Use encryption to protect sensitive data.
The main changes between ISO/IEC 27001:2013 and ISO/IEC 27001:2022
The transition from ISO/IEC 27001:2013 to ISO/IEC 27001:2022 introduces significant updates to align with evolving cybersecurity and privacy needs. The standard title has expanded from focusing solely on «information security management systems» to incorporating «information security, cybersecurity, and privacy protection» in the 2022 version. Technical revisions include replacing terms such as «international standard» with «document» and «may» with «can,» reflecting a more flexible and modern approach.
Additionally, Annex A has been streamlined, reducing the controls from 114 across 14 categories in the 2013 version to 93 controls organized into four key themes: organizational, people, physical, and technological. These changes make the 2022 standard more concise and practical for today’s information security challenges.
