ISO/IEC 27001:2022 (Annex A)

Attestkeep maps what your cluster's admission control and image scanning recorded in a period to 12 clauses of ISO/IEC 27001:2022. 10 are assessed from those records; 2 are marked outside scope, each with the reason.

What the framework asks

10 clauses a cluster can answer.

Citations and titles as the report prints them. Open a clause to read what it asks, restated close to the instrument's own words.

Availability
2 clauses marked outside scope, and why
CitationClause and reason
Clauses 4 to 10 The management system itself

certification is assessed against the organisation's management system; a control instrument produces evidence for it and cannot stand in for it

Annex A 6 and 7 People and physical controls

nothing in these control sets is observable from a cluster; they are listed so their absence from this document is deliberate

What Attestkeep produces

Evidence from records the cluster already keeps.

Nothing is filled in by hand. Each clause's answer carries a status (met, partial, gap or outside scope), a note with the period's own numbers, and the report sections those numbers come from.

Statements the mapping draws on

Each assessed clause is answered by one or more of these statements about the period's records. The same statement answers the same question under every framework, so two reports for one period cannot disagree.

  • Every decision and administrative action is recorded4 clauses
  • Only images of established provenance may run2 clauses
  • Images may enter only from named registries2 clauses
  • Every image in the inventory carries a scan record2 clauses
  • Administrative access is federated to a directory1 clause
  • Admission refuses non-compliant workloads1 clause
  • Vulnerability thresholds are stricter where the workload is exposed or privileged1 clause
  • The control itself was operating throughout the period1 clause
  • Workloads name images by digest, not by a movable tag1 clause
  • Accepted risks are named, justified and expire1 clause
  • A refusal or a critical finding reaches a person1 clause
  • Remediation windows are declared for each severity1 clause
  • A bill of materials is held for the images in service1 clause
  • Images carrying severe findings are refused1 clause
  • Workload privilege is constrained at admission1 clause
The package

What the report contains.

Every package carries the same sections, whatever the framework. The ones marked are those ISO/IEC 27001 answers cite, with the number of clauses citing each.

Scope

The scope paragraph, as the report states it.

This document reports what one Kubernetes cluster's admission control and image scanning recorded during the period, mapped onto ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A. Certification is granted to an information security management system, not to a control instrument: this document is evidence an assessor can place against a small number of Annex A controls, chiefly A.8.8 technical vulnerability management, A.8.19 software on operational systems and A.8.28 secure coding's deployment half. The management system clauses and the controls that govern people, physical security and suppliers as organisations are outside the scope of this document and are marked as such.

Questions

About ISO/IEC 27001 and Attestkeep

Is this a ISO/IEC 27001 certification?

No. The package is evidence produced from your cluster's own records. It is not a certification, and no auditor is obliged to accept it. The scope paragraph on this page is the one the report itself carries.

Why are 2 of the clauses outside scope?

They ask about things one cluster's admission and scanning records cannot show. They are listed with the reason rather than left out, so whoever reads the report can see the gap is deliberate.

Which plan includes ISO/IEC 27001?

Every plan can report against it. Community and Team include one framework of your choice, Business three, Enterprise every one. Prices are on the pricing page.

How does an auditor check the package?

In a browser at attestkeep.com/verify.html, where nothing is uploaded, or with the short script on the documentation site. Neither needs us. For auditors has the details.
