Managers are to insist that everyone working for the organization applies information security as the organization's policy, topic-specific policies and procedures lay down. Purpose (stated in ISO/IEC 27002:2022): ensures managers understand their information security role and act so that all personnel know and meet their responsibilities. 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 5.4.

What else in your programme already covers this
This control maps to 66 controls across 29 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.
NIST-CSF-GV.PO-02 Policy for managing cybersecurity risks is reviewed, updated, communicated, and enforced to reflect changes in requirements, threats, technology, and organizational mission
NIST-CSF-GV.RM-01 Risk management objectives are established and agreed to by organizational stakeholders
NIST-CSF-GV.RM-03 Cybersecurity risk management activities and outcomes are included in enterprise risk management processes
NIST-CSF-GV.RM-04 Strategic direction that describes appropriate risk response options is established and communicated
NIST-CSF-GV.RR-01 Organizational leadership is responsible and accountable for cybersecurity risk and fosters a culture that is risk-aware, ethical, and continually improving
NIST-CSF-GV.RR-03 Adequate resources are allocated commensurate with the cybersecurity risk strategy, roles, responsibilities, and policies
You are reading one control. How much of ISO 27001:2022 have you already done?
ISO 27001:2022 5.4 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.
