ISO 27001:2022 8.1: User end point devices

Information that sits on, is handled by or can be reached through user endpoint devices is to be protected. Purpose (stated in ISO/IEC 27002:2022): shields information from the risks that endpoint devices bring. 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 8.1.
