What ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Means for SmartDev?
ISO/IEC 27001:2022 is the latest and most advanced version of the ISO 27001 standard, that has a stronger emphasis on information security in cloud environments, modern risk management practices, and tighter alignment with real-world digital operations. For SmartDev, achieving ISO/IEC 27001:2022 confirms that information security is embedded not only in technical systems, but also in governance, people, and processes across the organization.
Key implications include:
-
A formally established and continuously improved Information Security Management System (ISMS)
-
Systematic identification, assessment, and mitigation of information security risks
-
Clear accountability and cross-functional alignment on data protection responsibilities
-
Stronger assurance for clients operating in regulated and high-risk environments
What Has Changed Between ISO/IEC 27001:2022 And ISO/IEC 27001:2013?
While ISO/IEC 27001:2022 reduces the total number of controls, the new standard requires deeper, more rigorous implementation. Controls are broader in scope, more integrated, and designed to reflect modern digital and cloud-based operating models.
Spitze Schlüssel differences:
SmartDev previously complied with ISO/IEC 27001:2013, which created a strong foundation. However, transitioning to the 2022 version required a deeper reassessment of real operational practices rather than a simple documentation update.
The Journey to Achieve ISO/IEC 27001:2022
The ISO/IEC 27001:2022 journey delivered tangible operational benefits beyond certification itself.
Stronger Starting Point from ISO/IEC 27001:2013
Having undergone the 2013 assessment meant that many baseline controls were already in place. This allowedSmartDev to focus on refining effectiveness, closing gaps, and aligning controls with actual workflows.
Clearer and More Structured Implementation Planning
Derupdated standard enables clearer prioritization of risks and controls, making it easier to design realistic implementation plans that align with business operations.
Executive and BOM Support
Strong backing from Board of Management stakeholders enabled formal declarations of information security commitment and the development of a robust ISMS handbook, ensuring top-down alignment.
