What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 2 controls across 2 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.

ISO 27002:2022 · 1 control

  • 8.22 Segregation of networks
  • 22.2.12.C.02 22.2.12.C.02 No virtualisation between security domains at same classification (classified)

Every mapping shown was judged rather than inferred from wording similarity, and the ones that failed review are published too. See the coverage reports and what was rejected.
