ISO 27001:2022 compliance


ISO 27001 is an internationally recognized standard for information security management systems (ISMS).
It states that any information stored on, processed by, or accessible through user endpoints must be protected.

The 2022 version includes 10 clauses and an annex essential to mobile security. Annex A defines security controls grouped into 14 sections, each targeting a specific domain.
Using ISO 27001:2022 as a framework helps organizations establish and maintain robust security practices.
