ISO 27001

Support the access-control areas of ISO 27001 with AWS IAM evidence.

Securitain assesses the AWS identity and access controls that underpin the Annex A access-control areas and produces evidence to support your ISMS — read-only and explainable.

Technical evidence support, not certification. Securitain does not make any organization “ISO 27001 certified.” It assesses AWS access controls and maps findings to relevant Annex A control areas as supporting technical evidence; certification is granted by an accredited body.

Why it matters

The problem teams bring to ISO 27001

ISO/IEC 27001 asks organizations to manage access to information based on business need, control privileged access, and govern authentication. In AWS, that maps directly onto IAM: least privilege, privileged-access management, secure authentication, and control of external access. Securitain assesses these control areas and supplies the technical evidence your information security management system can reference.

What Securitain evaluates today

AWS access controls, assessed read-only

Access control based on least privilege
Privileged-access management across IAM
Authentication and MFA configuration
User and identity lifecycle signals (stale keys, inactivity)
External-party access via cross-account trust
Resource-policy exposure on supported services
Finding evidence and remediation guidance
Example findings

From observation to evidence

Excessive privileged accessIdentity ARN, effective permissions, privileged actions, scan timestamp
User without MFAUser ARN, MFA status, login profile presence
Stale identity with unused keyKey ID, last-used date, attached privileges
External access via cross-account roleTrust statement, external account, ExternalId condition

How ISO 27001 results appear

Each finding maps to the relevant ISO 27001 control areas, with a justification drawer showing the check used, expected vs observed configuration, the affected account and ARN, an evidence timestamp, and remediation guidance. Securitain describes control areas rather than asserting authoritative control IDs.

ISO 27001 FAQ

Common questions

Does Securitain make us ISO 27001 certified?

No. ISO 27001 certification is granted by an accredited certification body after auditing your ISMS. Securitain provides technical evidence for AWS access controls that supports that effort.

Which Annex A areas does it help with?

Primarily the access-control and identity areas. ISMS governance, risk treatment, and the broader control set remain your responsibility.

Are control IDs published as authoritative?

No. Securitain describes control areas rather than asserting authoritative Annex A control IDs.
