A responsibility-aware map from GDPR obligations to ISO 27001 governance and Annex A controls without treating ISO certification as proof of GDPR compliance.
This table maps each covered A.5 organizational control to implementation output, audit evidence, and ISO/IEC 27005-style risk logic.
- A.6 controls are people-risk treatments. They reduce the chance that the wrong person is trusted or that the right person lacks clear obligations. - A.6 evidence often sits ou...
- Physical controls often fail through behavior, not technology. Observation and walkthrough evidence matter. - Physical controls should align to asset inventory, classification...
- A.8 controls require technical evidence. Policies are not enough. - Endpoint controls connect to remote working, off-premises assets, and incident reporting. - Privileged acce...
1. implementer view: what to build; 2. auditor view: what to verify; 3. ISO/IEC 27005 view: what risk logic supports the decision.
