How to use the file
Decide what applies
Go through the list with your risk register: which control do you need because of a risk, a law or a contract?
Justify
Record why a control is included and why you exclude another. Clause 6.1.3 d of the standard asks for both.
Enter status and evidence
For each row the implementation status and where the evidence is. Then approve the statement and keep it with version and date.
The portal takes it from there
In Complass the Statement of Applicability is a catalog in the ISO 27001 project: applicability with justification, status, evidence and owner for each control. Risks point to the controls that treat them. You bring your spreadsheet in by import, and Excel stays available as an export.
Perguntas frequentes
Are Statement of Applicability and SoA the same thing?
Yes. Both name the same document under ISO/IEC 27001:2022, clause 6.1.3 d. SoA is short for Statement of Applicability.
Do we have to implement all 93 controls?
No. You assess all 93 controls and implement the necessary ones. A control that your scope does not need is excluded with a justification.
Why does the template not contain the text of the standard?
Standards are protected by copyright. The template gives the number of each control, our own short title and our own explanation. The wording of your licensed copy is authoritative.
Our statement is still based on the 2013 edition. Does the template help?
Yes. The template follows the 2022 edition with 93 controls in four themes. Map your existing entries and check the newly added controls separately.
