Clause 6 – ISO 27001:2022

ISO 27001:2022 clause-6.1.2: Information security risk assessment

The organization must define and use a risk assessment process that sets and keeps risk criteria, covering both acceptance criteria and criteria for carrying out assessments; gives consistent, valid and comparable results when repeated; identifies, within the ISMS scope, the risks that come from information losing its confidentiality, integrity or availability, and names an owner for each; analyses them by judging potential consequences and realistic likelihood and deciding the level of risk; and evaluates them by comparing the analysis with the criteria and ranking them for treatment. Documented information about the process must be retained.

What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 5 controls across 3 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.

COBIT 2019 · 3 controls

  • Art. 13(2) Cybersecurity risk assessment used across the product lifecycle
  • 5.1.c-ch Article 5(1)(ç): public institutions and critical infrastructures keep a full asset inventory, including data, and a risk analysis

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.

Other controls in Clause 6 – ISO 27001:2022

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

ISO 27001:2022 clause-6.1.2 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.
