ISO 27001, SOC 2 and NIST CSF readiness

ISO/IEC 27001 is the international standard for an information security management system (ISMS). The 2022 edition groups its 93 Annex A controls into four themes: organisational, people, physical and technological.

Overview

In plain English

SOC 2 is an attestation report based on the AICPA Trust Services Criteria, often requested by US customers. NIST CSF 2.0, published in February 2024, adds a Govern function to the framework and is a useful maturity model for any organisation.

Instruments covered

  • ISO/IEC 27001:2022
  • SOC 2 (AICPA Trust Services Criteria)
  • NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) 2.0
