Information Security Management System Manual
Section 6.1 — Actions to address risks and opportunities
6.1.2 Information security risk assessment
The organization runs a defined and repeatable process for assessing information security risk. The criteria for performing assessments and for accepting risk are set out in advance, so that repeated assessments give consistent and comparable results.
Risks to the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information within scope are identified. Each risk is given an owner, analysed for likelihood and consequence, and weighed against the acceptance criteria to set its priority for treatment.
6.1.3 Information security risk treatment
For each risk that needs treatment, a treatment option is selected — modify, retain, avoid or share — and the controls required to deliver it are determined. The chosen controls are checked against the reference set in Annex A to confirm nothing has been missed, and the outcome is captured in the Statement of Applicability.

Why Use an ISO 27001 Checklist?
ISO 27001 is the international standard for information security management systems. Achieving certification requires demonstrating compliance across multiple clauses and a large set of Annex A controls. A structured checklist ensures your internal audits are thorough, repeatable, and produce the documented evidence that certification bodies expect.
Our checklist walks you through each clause from 4 to 10 and every Annex A control, giving auditors a clear path through the standard so nothing is overlooked.
What's Included
- Clause-by-clause audit questions covering Clauses 4 through 10
- Annex A controls checklist spanning all 93 controls across 4 themes
- Risk assessment verification questions to confirm your risk treatment plan
- Statement of Applicability review section for justifying included and excluded controls
- Compliance, non-compliance, and observation columns for each item
