What is ISO 20000-1 and who does it apply to?

ISO 20000-1 is a compliance framework from International with 5 domains and 22 controls. IT service management system requirements It is used by organisations to establish and maintain compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements.

What does ISO 20000-1 actually require?

ISO 20000-1 has 22 controls organised across 5 domains. The largest domains are ISO 20000-1: Service Operation (5 controls), ISO 20000-1: Service Strategy & Design (5 controls), ISO 20000-1: Service Transition (5 controls). Each control defines specific requirements that organisations must implement to achieve compliance.

If I already comply with another framework, how much of ISO 20000-1 do I already cover?

ISO 20000-1 maps to 179 other compliance frameworks. The top mapping partners are NIST SP 800-82 Revision 3: Guide to Industrial Control Systems (ICS) Security (23% coverage), ITIL 4 (23% coverage), NIST Privacy Framework (18% coverage). Use our comparison tool to explore control-level mappings between frameworks.
