Скачать или смотреть ISO 27001:2022 - A5.31- Identification of legal, statutory, regulatory and contractual requirements

Implementing ISO27001 isn’t a fun hobby—it’s a serious commitment to protecting your business.
And Annex A.5.31 is one of the most important controls in helping you stay on the right side of the law.

In this episode, we break down what ISO27001:2022 expects when it comes to identifying and documenting your legal, statutory, regulatory, and contractual requirements—without drowning in red tape.

📚 In this video, we’ll cover:

✅ What ISO27001 Control A.5.31 really means
✅ How to identify laws, contracts and regulations relevant to YOUR business
✅ What auditors expect to see (and what they don’t)
✅ Tips on creating a Legal Register that actually works
✅ Real-world examples from GDPR, Cyber Insurance, and client contracts
✅ Why this control can win senior leadership support for ISO27001

💡 Why does this matter?
Because not knowing your legal obligations isn't an excuse—and won’t keep you out of court.

From GDPR Articles 32–34 to specific contract clauses, failing to understand and document your requirements could leave your business vulnerable to breaches, lawsuits, or compliance failure.

🔍 What the auditor is looking for:

A clear, current Legal Register
Evidence of how legal/contractual needs were identified
Explanation of how the list is reviewed and maintained
Examples of how legal requirements are actually being met (contracts, audits, minutes)

🧭 What do you need to do?

✅ Build a Legal Register of relevant requirements
✅ Speak to business leaders, clients, and insurers
✅ Review your contracts—think about encryption and breach notification
✅ Keep the list practical and focused on info sec requirements
✅ Add legal reviews to your audit schedule

Pro tip: Don’t list every law under the sun—only those relevant to information security. If you add it, you’ll have to audit against it.
