ISO/IEC 27001 · 2022

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 is the international standard for an Information Security Management System (ISMS). It covers both the management system (clauses 4–10) and the Annex A control set, the framework of choice when you sell globally.

Scope

How much of the standard Keel models

Models its declared scope in full

Keel authors every leaf requirement in the scope declared below, all 116 of them, with nothing inside that scope left out. A test fails the build if the authored count and the declared count ever diverge, so this framework cannot quietly lose requirements after the fact.

Authored in Keel: 116 requirements
In Keel’s scored scope: 116 leaf requirements

Checked against

ISO/IEC 27001:2022, management clauses 4-10 plus Annex A. 116 leaves: 23 management-clause leaves (cl.4 = 4, cl.5 = 3, cl.6 = 3, cl.7 = 5, cl.8 = 3, cl.9 = 3, cl.10 = 2) plus the 93 Annex A controls (A.5 Organizational 37, A.6 People 8, A.7 Physical 14, A.8 Technological 34). Clauses 1-3 are scope, normative references and terms, and define no auditable requirement. Keel scores ISO/IEC 27001 clauses 4-10 at the standard’s second-level clause (4.1, 6.1, 7.5 and so on) rather than at every sub-clause beneath them, while Annex A’s 93 controls are scored at the standard’s own leaf level. A readiness percentage here is therefore a percentage of 116 rows at that depth, not of every sub-clause the standard states. Clauses 1 to 3 are excluded, three sub-clauses Keel cites elsewhere sit inside a parent row rather than in their own, and what has and has not been verified about the counts behind the 116 is set out at /frameworks/iso-27001/scope/.

What Keel scores here, and what it does not

Keel publishes this for every framework it ships, complete or not, so a readiness percentage can be read against a denominator you can see. Compare every framework

Who it is for

Who needs ISO/IEC 27001?

Companies selling into Europe and beyond, where ISO 27001 is the common language
Teams that want a certifiable, audited standard rather than an attestation
Organizations building a durable security program, not a one-off checklist

ISO/IEC 27001 shares canonical controls with FedRAMP Rev5 Class D, FedRAMP Rev5 Class C and NIST SP 800-53 and others in the catalog. Implement one of those controls and it counts toward every framework it satisfies, so adding ISO/IEC 27001 rarely means starting from scratch.

A framework is lit when at least one canonical control satisfies both ISO/IEC 27001 and that framework. Unlit means none of them do, which is an absence rather than a judgment about that standard. 22 of 26 are lit here.
