Site equipment securely and protect it.

ISO 27002 7.8 guidance: Requires equipment to be sited securely and protected. Older source material in the folder expands this as siting equipment to reduce unnecessary access into work areas, positioning and restricting the viewing angle of facilities handling sensitive data, isolating items needing special protection, and guarding against physical hazards such as theft, fire, water, dust, vibration, electrical interference and vandalism.

Protect assets used or held off-site.

ISO 27002 7.9 guidance: Requires assets located away from the organisation's premises to be protected.

Manage storage media across acquisition, use, transport and disposal per classification and handling rules.

ISO 27002 7.10 guidance: Requires storage media to be managed across their whole life cycle, covering acquisition, use, transportation and disposal, in accordance with the organisation's classification scheme and handling requirements. Older source material adds that disposal should follow formal procedures scaled to the sensitivity of the information held, and that media in transit needs protection against unauthorised access, misuse and corruption.

ISO 27002 8.9 guidance: Requires configurations of hardware, software, services and networks, including their security configurations, to be established, documented, implemented, monitored and reviewed. Supporting material frames this as a standing process that keeps systems configured securely and consistently.

Maintain and regularly test backups of information, software and systems per the backup policy.

ISO 27002 8.13 guidance: Requires backup copies of information, software and systems to be maintained and regularly tested, in line with the agreed topic specific policy on backup. Supporting SME guidance treats regular creation of backups together with tested recovery as the substance of the control, not the copy on its own.

Build enough redundancy into processing facilities to meet availability requirements.

ISO 27002 8.14 guidance: Requires information processing facilities to be implemented with redundancy sufficient to meet the availability requirements placed on them.

Secure, manage and control networks and network devices.

ISO 27002 8.20 guidance: Requires networks and network devices to be secured, managed and controlled in order to protect the information carried in systems and applications.

Segregate groups of services, users and systems in the network.

ISO 27002 8.22 guidance: Requires segregation within the organisation's networks, keeping groups of information services, of users and of systems apart from one another.

Define and implement rules for effective use of cryptography and key management.

ISO 27002 8.24 guidance: Requires defined and implemented rules on using cryptography effectively, including how cryptographic keys are managed.
