ISO 27002:2022 8.24: Use of cryptography

Requires defined and implemented rules on using cryptography effectively, including how cryptographic keys are managed.

What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 176 controls across 33 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.

Other controls in Technological controls – ISO 27002:2022

You are reading one control. How much of ISO 27002:2022 have you already done?

ISO 27002:2022 8.24 is one control. If you already hold one of the frameworks below, a reviewed crosswalk already says how much of ISO 27002:2022 your existing evidence covers. Hold NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 and 79 of 93 ISO 27002:2022 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. 180 were rejected on the NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 pair alone.
