Bueno, no lo es. .a mayoria de las personas ISO27001 que conozco no entienden esto, Te insto a que sigas leyendo. En realidad, esta es una buena pregunta dado que los, controles no son parte de los requisitos de 16027001, que son solo las 9 paginas de las cléusulas 4 a 10. Entonces, gpor qué auditarlos? The answer is simple. In order to check that the requirements of clauses 4 to 10 have been met the auditors need to sample check some of the controls, To give some examples: ‘= in 6.1.3 d) in the Statement of Applicability (SCA) each control needs to be annotated with a statement about ifit is implemented or not. In order to check that SOA is correct the auditor will need to undertake some sampling of the controls to confirm that the contro is implemented or not.

This is an extremely important clause and in order to check that this has been achieved the auditor will need to undertake some sampling of the controls to confirm that the controls are implemented and operating effectively # In83 the requirement is to implement the risk treatment plan and this includes implementation of the controls. In order to check that this has happened the auditor will need to undertake some sampling of the controls to confirm that they have been implemented. If not then that is a nonconformity against clause 83. # In 9.1 the requirement is to monitor and measure in some way the operation of the ISMS and the controls, and in order to check that this is being done correctly the auditor will need to look at some of the controls. If the performance management approach says control X is working but the auditor finds that itis not then that, is anonconformity against 9.1 * In92 the requirement is to undertake internal audit(s) of the ISMS and the controls. In order to check that this is being done correctly the auditor may need to look at some of the controls. Ifthe last internal audit id that control X was working X but the auditor finds that itis not then, depending on when the internal audit took place that is a nonconformity against 92 # In Clause 5.1 the organisation has to demonstrate leadership and commitment and if the controls are not implemented or are not operating effectively then this could demonstrate a lack of leadership and commitment. A non conformity against 5.1 would normally be accompanied by a number of other nor conformities against other clauses A few more points on this «This means that in theory an agenda for an ISO27001 audit should simply list only the clauses 4 to 10. When the auditor then gets to one of the clauses above they then spend some time sampling some of the controls to check that the clause is OK.

But of course auditors never ever do it this way. They audit clauses 4 to 10 and then audit the controls. Its what | do and | think itis reasonable to do it this way as long as the auditor fully understands why they are auditing the controls and they are only sampling. There is also some guidance on what an audit agenda should look like ir https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/what-should- is027001-audit-planagenda-contain-chris-hall/ * Acertification auditor does not need to test all the controls. They need to sample enough of them to get reasonable but not absolute assurance that the requirements of clauses 4 to 10 are being met. # You can never get a nonconformity raised against a control, It must be raised against a clause * Ifyou have serious issues with a single control this should not lead to a major nonconformity as itis just one control out of all of your controls.
