ISO/IEC 27042:2015 5.2: 5.2 Continuity

In line with ISO/IEC 27037, complete and rigorous records of the chain of custody and of every process applied to potential digital evidence, from the source to the resulting digital evidence, guard against any claim of spoliation through tampering by an unknown party; notes made during the work (contemporaneous notes) are strongly preferred because they are more accurate than records written later.

What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 2 controls across 2 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.

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.
