ISO/IEC 27002 Lead Manager Training — Lesson 3: Governing Physical and Technological Controls, Identity, Data, Network, and Development

Learning Objectives

• Interpret the purpose, responsibilities, inputs, and decision points shaping governing physical and technological controls, identity, data, network, and development.
• Apply the workflow and produce physical and technology control evidence pack that another practitioner can review.
• Analyze “a logging control collects events but does not support investigation” and recommend a proportionate, evidence-based response.

Detailed Topics

• physical controls
• technological controls
• identity management
• access control
• data protection
• network security
• secure development
• logging and monitoring
• Governance, competence, communication, documentation, validation, risk, and follow-up considerations

Instructor Demonstration

The instructor demonstrates the governing physical and technological controls, identity, data, network, and development workflow, identifies applicable responsibilities, records checkpoints in physical and technology control evidence pack, and contrasts the accepted state with a condition where a logging control collects events but does not support investigation.

Hands-On Exercise

Complete a controlled implementation, management, audit, assessment, foundation, introduction, or transition exercise for Governing Physical and Technological Controls, Identity, Data, Network, and Development. Establish scope and criteria, collect or create evidence, examine “a logging control collects events but does not support investigation,” reach a supported conclusion, and preserve the result in physical and technology control evidence pack.

1. Confirm objectives, scope, roles, criteria, stakeholders, and expected outputs.
2. Perform the planned activities while recording assumptions, evidence, and decisions.
3. Test a normal case, an exception, and a follow-up or improvement condition.
4. Document conclusions, owners, due dates, escalation, and verification requirements.

Scenario Analysis

• Identify the requirement or principle with the strongest influence on governing physical and technological controls, identity, data, network, and development.
• Compare two defensible responses and explain their governance, risk, and evidence trade-offs.
• Determine how the physical and technology control evidence pack should be approved, retained, reviewed, and updated.

Troubleshooting Guidance

Separate missing evidence from ineffective practice, and distinguish a documentation issue from a control, process, governance, or competence failure. Use physical and technology control evidence pack to trace the earliest divergence. Treat “a logging control collects events but does not support investigation” as a hypothesis until the response is validated against the applicable requirement and intended outcome.

Validation Checklist

• The scope, criteria, stakeholders, and intended outcome for governing physical and technological controls, identity, data, network, and development are explicit.
• The physical and technology control evidence pack links statements and decisions to objective, reviewable support.
• Responsibilities, competence, communication, risk, legal duties, and change impact were considered where relevant.
• Findings, corrective actions, monitoring, review triggers, and improvement ownership are clear.

Lesson Outcome

Learners can apply Governing Physical and Technological Controls, Identity, Data, Network, and Development, explain the reasoning used, and defend the result through physical and technology control evidence pack.
