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

  • 7.14 Secure disposal or re-use of equipment
  • 13.5.25.C.01 13.5.25.C.01 Treatment of destruction waste by particle size

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.
