Internal Controls
ISO 27001 Control Tailoring for Product Squads
Break annex controls into squad-level tasks that product teams can ship without waiting for a central gate.
Overview
Participants learn how to translate ISO 27001 annex statements into backlog-ready work items, acceptance criteria, and lightweight risk notes. The course emphasizes cross-functional facilitation between engineering, support, and internal quality partners. You will practice facilitation scripts, define minimum viable evidence per increment, and align sprint reviews with control monitoring. Case studies come from SaaS and healthcare technology firms with multi-tenant architectures.
