1 Scope
This document provides guidance on managing an information security management system (ISMS) audit programme, on conducting audits, and on the competence of ISMS auditors, in addition to the guidance contained in ISO 19011. This document is applicable to those needing to understand or conduct internal or external audits of an ISMS or to manage an ISMS audit programme.
5 Managing an audit programme
5.1 General The guidelines of ISO 19011:2018, 5.1, apply. 5.2 Establishing audit programme objectives 5.2.1 The guidelines of ISO 19011:2018, 5.2, apply. In addition, the guidance in 5.2.2 applies.5.2.2 ISMS-specific considerations for determining audit 1) programme objectives can include: a) identified information security requirements; b) requirements of ISO/IEC 27001; c) auditee’s level of performance, as reflected in the occurrence of information security events and incidents and effectiveness of the ISMS; NOTE Further information about performance monitoring, measurement, analysis and evaluation can be found in ISO/IEC 27004. d) information security risks to the relevant parties, i.e. the auditee and audit client. Examples of ISMS-specific audit programme objectives include: — demonstrate conformity with all relevant legal and contractual requirements and other requirements and their security implications; — obtain and maintain confidence in the risk management capability of the auditee; — evaluate the effectiveness of the actions to address information security risks and opportunities. 5.3 Determining and evaluating audit programme risks and opportunities 5.3.1 The guidelines of ISO 19011:2018, 5.3, apply. 5.3.2 Measures to ensure information security and confidentiality should be determined considering auditees and other relevant party requirements. Other party requirements can include relevant legal and contractual requirements. 5.4 Establishing audit programme 5.4.1 Roles and responsibilities of the individual(s) managing audit programme The guidelines of ISO 19011:2018, 5.4.1, apply. In addition, the guidance in 5.4.1.2 applies. 5.4.2 Competence of individual(s) managing audit programme The guidelines of ISO 19011:2018, 5.4.2, apply. 5.4.3 Establishing extent of the audit programme 5.4.3.1 The guidelines of ISO 19011:2018, 5.4.3, apply. In addition, the guidance in 5.4.3.2 applies. 5.4.3.2 The extent of an audit programme can include the following: a) the size of the ISMS, including: 1) the total number of persons doing work under the organization’s control and relationships with interested parties and contractors that are relevant to the ISMS;b) the complexity of the ISMS (including the number and criticality of processes and activities) taking into account differences between sites within the ISMS scope; c) the significance of the information security risks identified for the ISMS in relation to the business; d) the significance of the risks and opportunities determined when planning the ISMS; e) the importance of preserving the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information within the scope of the ISMS; f) the complexity of the information systems to be audited, including complexity of information technology deployed; g) the number of similar sites. Consideration should be given in the audit programme to setting priorities that warrant more detailed examination based on the significance of information security risks and business requirements in respect to the scope of the ISMS. NOTE Further information about determining audit time can be found in ISO/IEC 27006. Further information on multi-site sampling can be found in ISO/IEC 27006 and mandatory document 1 from the International Accreditation Forum (IAF MD1, see Reference [11]). The information contained in ISO/IEC 27006 and IAF MD 1 only relates to certification audits. 5.4.4 Determining audit programme resources 5.4.4.1 The guidelines of ISO 19011:2018, 5.4.4, apply. In addition, the guidance in 5.4.4.2 applies. 5.4.4.2 In particular, for all significant risks applicable to the auditee and relevant to the audit programme objectives, ISMS auditors should be allocated sufficient time to review the effectiveness of the actions to address information security risks and ISMS related risks and opportunities. 5.5 Implementing audit programme 5.5.1 General The guidelines of ISO 19011:2018, 5.5.1, apply. 5.5.2.1 The guidelines of ISO 19011:2018, 5.5.2, apply.
