The ISO 27001 module in Venvera provides comprehensive management of your ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Information Security Management System (ISMS). Whether you are preparing for initial certification, maintaining an existing certificate, or using ISO 27001 as a framework for information security governance, this module covers every aspect of the standard's requirements.

Dashboard

The ISO 27001 dashboard presents a consolidated view of your ISMS health and certification readiness:

Compliance Score

A prominent ring chart displays your overall ISO 27001 compliance score, calculated from your gap assessment results, SoA implementation progress, and nonconformity closure rates. The score provides a quick indicator of certification readiness.

SoA Progress

A progress bar and statistics panel shows your Statement of Applicability completion status:

  • Total Annex A controls: 93
  • Controls assessed as Applicable vs Not Applicable
  • Implementation status breakdown: Not Started / Partial / Full
  • Percentage of applicable controls fully implemented

Audit Schedule

An upcoming audits panel shows scheduled internal and external audits with dates, types, and status. Overdue audits are highlighted in red.

Nonconformity Tracker

A summary panel displays:

  • Total open nonconformities (Major and Minor)
  • Nonconformities by status (Open, Under Investigation, CA Planned, CA Implemented, Verified, Closed)
  • Aging analysis — nonconformities approaching or exceeding their target closure dates
  • Trend chart showing NC open/close rates over time

Module Sections

The ISO 27001 module is organised into the following sections, each accessible from the module navigation:

Getting Started

Step 1: Complete the Statement of Applicability

Work through all 93 Annex A controls, marking each as Applicable or Not Applicable with justification. For applicable controls, set the implementation status. This is a foundational document for ISO 27001 certification.

Step 2: Run the Gap Assessment

Assess your ISMS against the requirements in Clauses 4 through 10 and your applicable Annex A controls. This identifies areas needing improvement before certification.

Step 3: Address Gaps and Nonconformities

Use the gap assessment results to create remediation actions. Log any identified nonconformities in the NC register and plan corrective actions.

Step 4: Conduct Internal Audits

Plan and execute internal audits covering all ISMS processes and applicable Annex A controls. Record findings and track corrective actions.

Step 5: Hold Management Reviews

Schedule and conduct management review meetings with all required inputs per Clause 9.3. Document decisions and action items.

Step 6: Manage Training

Ensure all personnel with ISMS responsibilities have appropriate competence. Record training activities and awareness campaigns.

Step 7: Maintain Document Register

Ensure all mandatory documented information is current, approved, and accessible. Use the document register to track versions and review dates.

Step 8: Track Certification

If pursuing formal certification, use the Certification Tracker to manage Stage 1 and Stage 2 audits, surveillance audits, and recertification.

ℹ️
ISO/IEC 27001:2022 restructured the Annex A controls from 114 controls in 14 categories (2013 version) to 93 controls in 4 categories: Organisational (A.5), People (A.6), Physical (A.7), and Technological (A.8). Venvera uses the 2022 structure throughout.
