ISO 27001:2022 5.13: Labelling of information

Procedures for labelling information are to be developed and put into effect in line with the classification scheme the organization has adopted. Purpose (stated in ISO/IEC 27002:2022): communicates information classification and supports automated processing and management of information. As an Annex A reference control, it is compared with the controls determined in risk treatment (6.1.3 c) and recorded in the Statement of Applicability as included or excluded, with the justification and implementation status (6.1.3 d); implementation guidance is ISO/IEC 27002:2022 5.13.

What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 24 controls across 17 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.

You are reading one control. How much of ISO 27001:2022 have you already done?

ISO 27001:2022 5.13 is one control. If you already hold one of the frameworks below, a reviewed crosswalk already says how much of ISO 27001:2022 your existing evidence covers. Hold NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 and 79 of 93 ISO 27001:2022 controls already carry evidence.

Each report names every control your existing framework evidences, every one it does not, the reasoning behind each claim, and the claims that were argued against and rejected. 170 were rejected on the NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 pair alone.
