This Statement of Applicability (SoA) template supports organisations implementing ISO/IEC 27001:2022 by documenting the selection and justification of information security controls. It includes all 93 controls from Annex A, grouped by control category (Organisational, People, Physical, and Technological). For each control, organisations should indicate whether it is applicable, justify inclusions or exclusions, and provide a status update on implementation. The SoA is a mandatory document for ISO 27001 certification and should reflect the current state of the Information Security Management System (ISMS).
