What Is ISO 27002?

ISO/IEC 27002 is the global guide to information security controls. It supports ISO/IEC 27001 by showing how to select, implement, and run controls. Think of it as the “how-to” for your ISO 27001 certification.

The ISO 27002 standard was updated in 2022. The latest ISO 27002 guidelines organize 93 controls into four themes: Organizational, People, Physical, and Technological. The ISO 27002 framework gives your teams clear direction on what “good” looks like—helping you link each control to risk, a policy, an owner, and supporting evidence. That shared control language speeds up collaboration between teams, auditors, and vendors, making certification smoother and ongoing audits easier to pass.

You certify to ISO 27001; ISO 27002 provides the practical guidance for your controls.

Why ISO 27002 Compliance Matters for Your Organization

ISO 27002 helps you make better security decisions—keeping your security program focused on actual risks, not guesswork. That means fewer gaps, smoother audits, and more trust with customers and partners.

For teams working toward ISO 27001 certification, ISO 27002 is your control playbook: it speeds design, clarifies roles, and helps you prove that controls are operating as intended. Over time, ISO 27002 compliance reduces both cost and effort, because your evidence, tasks, and reviews follow a repeatable, trusted pattern.

When buyers ask about your security posture, aligning with ISO 27002 controls shows you have real governance, process, and proof behind your promises.

Key reasons to prioritize ISO 27002 compliance

Reduce cyber risk with globally recognized controls
Meet customer and regulatory expectations
Build operational resilience and trust
Simplify audits and certifications

The average cost of a data breach hit $4.88 million in 2024 (IBM Cost of a Data Breach Report). Companies with an ISO 27001-aligned management system are less likely to face a breach because they identify and fix risks before they become problems.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is ISO 27002?

ISO 27002 provides guidance for information security controls. It helps you choose and implement the right measures to manage risk. You don’t certify to ISO 27002 itself—you certify to ISO 27001 and use ISO 27002 as the control guideline.

How does ISO 27002 support ISO 27001 certification?

ISO 27001 sets the requirements for an information security management system (ISMS). ISO 27002 explains how to implement controls that address the risks in your scope. Together, they make your program actionable and auditable.

What are the 14 domains of ISO 27002?

ISO/IEC 27002:2013 structured controls into 14 domains, including Access Control, Cryptography, and Supplier Relationships. In 2022, the standard was updated to organize controls into four themes: Organizational, People, Physical, and Technological. Many resources still reference the “14 domains” for legacy searches.

Who needs to comply with ISO 27002?

Any organization seeking ISO 27001 certification or looking to strengthen its information security controls can benefit from ISO 27002. It is especially important for mid-sized and large businesses managing sensitive or regulated data.

Is there such a thing as “ISO 27002 certification”?

No. Certification is to ISO 27001. ISO 27002 guides control selection and operation that supports your ISO 27001 certification.

How long does it take to align with ISO 27002?

It depends on scope and maturity. With SureCloud, teams speed up control selection, ownership, evidence, and reviews because workflows and dashboards remove manual tracking.

How does SureCloud automate ISO 27002 compliance?

We map controls, assign owners, schedule reviews, collect evidence, route approvals, track exceptions, and generate audit-ready reports—all from one platform.

Can SureCloud help with third-party and supplier controls?

Yes. Evaluate vendors against ISO 27002-aligned requirements, track remediation, and keep related evidence in the same record.

What evidence do auditors expect to see?

Policies and standards, control procedures, implementation evidence (config, tooling output, tickets), review logs, test results, and proof of ongoing monitoring. SureCloud keeps these items linked to each control with timestamps and ownership.
