ISO 27001 Scope Template

The ISO 27001 Scope Document is a fundamental document for ISO 27001:2022 certification and vital for building an effective information security management system (ISMS). Getting the scope wrong is the number one mistake we see people make. Getting the scope wrong can cost you months of work and thousands of pounds.

The ISO 27001 Scope Document sets our clearly what your ISO 27001 Scope Statement is. This is the wording that will appear on your ISO 27001 certificate and will be read by all your customers and people that request a copy of your certificate. It is vital to ensure that this covers the products, services or things that they are interested in.

The ISO 27001 Scope Document sets out and defines clearly and cleanly the boundaries of the organisations information security management system. It sets our what is in scope and out of scope for your products, services, locations, people, teams, departments, technology and networks.

By defining the scope you can define the extent of the management system and prioritise your valuable resources to protect the things that are most important to you. It allows you to out scope, in particular with reference to the rigour of ISO 27001 certification and audit, the areas of your business that whilst important, do not require the overhead that comes with ISO 27001.
