ISO 27001 Competency Matrix

The ISO 27001 Competency Matrix is a formal document that is used to record, assess and manage the required skills, experience and knowledge of those involved in the information security management system (ISMS). It is a table that lists people and the level of competence that they have in key information security skills and business technologies.

The competence matrix is a record and visual representation of wether you have the skills required to pass the ISO 27001 certification and it is used to manage training and gaps in knowledge.

It would be usual to have documentary evidence to backup and support the ISO 27001 competence matrix and this can be requested at the ISO 27001 certification audit.

An ISO 27001 competency matrix is importance because it is a requirement of the ISO 27001:2022 Information Security standard and the requirement is explicitly covered in ISO 27001 Clause 7.2 Competence.

Ownership of the competency matrix usually sits with either the HR department, the information security manager or a combination of the two.

The competence matrix is vital for you in implementing and maintaining an effective information security management system (ISMS) by ensuring you have skills and knowledge and experience to manage risk, implement controls, respond to incidents and comply with regulation and law.
