ISO 27001 Clause 9.3

ISO 27001 Management Review is part of ISO 27001 Clause 9 Performance Evaluation where we ensure the information security management system (ISMS) is operating effectively and as intended.

The ISO 27001 standard was updated in 2022 with changes to ISO 27001 Management Reviews and this the ISO 27001:2022 updated changes to Clause 9.3 and exactly what do you need to do.

How to implement ISO 27001 Clause 9.3

Whilst ISO 27001 Clause 9 Performance Evaluation looks at overall evaluation, via 3 sub clause, this particular control focusses purely on management review. It is about management reviewing the performance of the ISMS.

In 2022 the standard made amendments to the control to specifically call out

Management Review Inputs : basically what needs to be reviewed provided in a structured approach to elements of the ISMS

Management Review Results : basically documentation of the review and actions

The standard also now explicitly calls out the need to retained documented evidence of the reviews. This easiest way to do this is in a Management Review Meeting with a structured agenda that is minuted.

Management Review Team Agenda

The following is an example ISO 27001 Management Review Team Agenda:

Agenda Item
Actions from previous meeting
Changes in external and internal issues that are relevant to the information security management system
Nonconformities and corrective actions
Monitoring and measurement results
Audit Results
