Control- ISO 27001 Annex : A.17.1.3 Verify, Review and Evaluate Information Security Continuity In order to ensure accurate and productive to adverse circumstances, the company must review on-going controls on safety information defined and enforced at regular intervals.

In such cases, the continuity of information security processes, procedures and controls against these changed requirements should be reviewed.

“It is far better to foresee without certainty than not to foresee at all”
– Henri Poincare

Organizations will track the consistency of their management of information security by:

Exercise and test the reliability of systems, procedures, and controls for the protection of information in compliance with objectives of information continuity;
Exercise and test expertise and routine in the systems, procedures and controls of information security continuity to ensure that its output is in line with the objectives for information security continuity;
Continuity of information infrastructure, information security mechanisms, policies and controls, and business continuity management/disaster recovery methods and strategies tests the quality and efficacy of information security initiatives.

Verifying continuity controls in information security varies from testing and monitoring in general information security which should be carried outside of changes testing. Where appropriate, testing of Information Security Continuity controls with client business continuity or disaster recovery checks are preferred.

ISO 27001 Annex : A.9.3 User Responsibilities

July 9, 2020 info savvy

ISO 27001 Annex : A.9.3 User Responsibilities Its objective is the Responsibility of users for safeguarding their authentication information.

A.9.3.1 Use of Secret Authentication Information

Control- Use of secret authentication information should be allowed for users to follow the organization’s practices.

Implementation Guidance- It is recommended that all users:

maintain confidential information on secure authentication to ensure that it is not leaked to the other parties, including people of authority;
Avoid maintaining a record of confidential authentication details (e.g. on a document, software file or mobile device) unless it can be stored safely and the storage system (e.g. password vault) has been approved;
Change details regarding secret authentication where potential vulnerability signs exist;
When passwords are used as secret authentication information, select quality passwords with a minimum length of:
– It’s easy to remember;
– Will not endorse something that anyone else might easily guess or access using personal details, e.g. names, phone numbers, dates of birth, etc.;
– Not susceptible to dictionary attacks (i.e. don’t contain words included in dictionaries);
– Free of identical, all-numeric or all-alphabetical characters consecutively;
– If temporary, change the first time you log on;
Do not disclose information about secret authentication of individual users;
Ensure proper password security when passwords are used in automated log-on procedures and stored as hidden authentication information;
Do not use the same information regarding secret authentication for business or non-business purposes.

Other Information- Providing Single Sign On (SSO) or other secret information management tools for authentication reduces the amount of secret authentication information that users need to protect, and can thus increase the effectiveness of this control. But these tools can also increase the impact of disclosure of information about secret authentication.

At the end of the day, the goals are simple: safety and security.
