Description

Format: Editable Microsoft Word Templates

Framework Alignment: ISO/IEC 27001:2022, ISO/IEC 27002:2022, Secure Controls Framework (SCF).

The “How” for International Compliance The Procedures Template – ISO 27001 / 27002 (part of the Cybersecurity Standardized Operating Procedures or CSOP series) is the definitive operational guide for organizations pursuing ISO 27001 certification or aligning with international best practices.

While ISO 27001 defines the requirements for an Information Security Management System (ISMS) and ISO 27002 provides control guidance, neither standard tells you exactly how to perform the daily tasks required to remain compliant. This template fills that void by providing written, step-by-step standard operating procedures (SOPs).

What Is Included?

This comprehensive library is mapped to the Secure Controls Framework (SCF) to ensure it covers both the 2013 and 2022 versions of ISO 27001/2.

• Operational Procedures: Detailed instructions for tasks such as Access Control reviews, Cryptographic Key management, Physical Security checks, and Incident Reporting.

• NIST NICE Framework Integration: Leverages the NIST NICE Cybersecurity Workforce Framework to assign work roles (e.g., “Cyber Defense Analyst,” “Network Operations Specialist”) to specific procedures, reducing ambiguity about who is responsible for what.

• Standardized Process Criteria: Each procedure includes defined fields for Process Owner, Process Operator, Frequency (Occurrence), and Performance Targets.
