Case study 1 – audit planning
Audit planning is crucial in the ISO 27001 implementation process, as it ensures that the audit objectives are clearly defined, resources are allocated effectively, and potential risks and areas of focus are identified in advance, leading to a more efficient and comprehensive audit. It provides a structured approach to assessing the effectiveness of information security controls, identifying vulnerabilities, and determining the compliance level with the ISO 27001 standard, ultimately contributing to the continuous improvement of an organization’s information security management system.
