How ready is your infrastructure for the questions ISO 27001 will raise?

ISO 27001 isn't simply a list of technical settings to switch on.

But your infrastructure still needs to support the security objectives, controls, governance and evidence your organisation has determined are necessary. This rapid checklist helps you identify where your infrastructure position appears clear - and where further investigation may be required.

8-10 minutes 40 statements, 8 sections Priority gaps worksheet

Yes - We do this and could demonstrate it.

Partly - Something exists, but there are gaps or uncertainty.

Don't know - I couldn't confidently demonstrate this today.

Pay particular attention to “Don't know.”

An unknown isn't automatically a compliance failure. It tells you where further investigation may be needed.

Answer all 40 statements to see your readiness review.

Don't know

needs a closer look

Don't treat the number of ticks as an ISO 27001 compliance score. Instead, identify the areas where uncertainty is concentrated.

What this checklist does not solve. This checklist is an initial infrastructure readiness diagnostic. It does not:

certify ISO 27001 compliance;
replace an Information Security Management System (ISMS);
determine which controls are applicable to your organisation;
replace a formal risk assessment;
replace a formal ISO 27001 gap analysis or audit;
provide legal or regulatory advice.

Its purpose is to help Technical Leaders identify infrastructure questions worth answering before those questions are asked during formal compliance and assurance work.
