Supporting documentation
ISO27001 requires organisations to draw up a high-level policy setting out their commitment to information security objectives and principles. This policy should be available as documented information, be communicated within the organisation and be available to interested parties as appropriate.
Annex A of ISO27001 contains a comprehensive set of information security controls and control objectives. Organisations can design their own controls, or identify controls from any source, but should compare them with the Annex A controls, to ensure that no necessary controls have been omitted. They also need to set out the rationale for the security controls they are employing and the justification for any that they are not in an ISO27001 Statement of Applicability (SoA).
