ISO 27001 EXCEL DESCRIPTION

ISO 27001:2022 Self‑Assessment Tool for Audits is an Excel template (XLSX) available for immediate download upon purchase.

Stop guessing your ISO 27001:2022 audit readiness. This Self‑Assessment Tool gives you an auditor‑grade gap analysis across all 93 Annex A controls and clauses 4‑10.

Created by an ISO 27001 Certified Lead Auditor with 15+ years of experience protecting critical infrastructures, this Excel‑based tool goes far beyond a simple checklist. It tells you exactly where you stand, what evidence you are missing, and how to close each gap – step by step.

What you get (macro‑free, stable Excel file, tested on Office 2010+):

Complete control coverage – Every ISO 27001:2022 control is listed, from A.5.1 (Policies) to A.8.34 (Technical compliance). Each control includes a Compliance Status field (Compliant / Partially Compliant / Non‑Compliant).

Evidence validation checklist – For every control, you will find a pre‑defined list of the exact evidence items an auditor will request (e.g., signed policies, access logs, training records). No more guessing what "proof" looks like.

Purpose and format examples – Each evidence item is accompanied by its intended purpose and concrete format examples (e.g., "Standalone policy document signed by CEO"). This helps your team produce audit‑ready artifacts the first time.

Remediation plan column – When a control is marked Non‑Compliant or Partially Compliant, the tool provides pre‑filled guidance on how to close the gap. You can assign an owner, set a due date, and track progress.

Gap type classification – Identify whether the shortfall is due to missing documentation, lack of awareness, incomplete implementation, absent monitoring, or insufficient improvement processes.

Dynamic results dashboard – The tool automatically calculates overall compliance percentages for ISO 27001 requirements (clauses 4‑10) and Annex A controls. Visual summaries are ready for management reviews and board presentations.

Glossary and instructions – A built‑in Read Me sheet explains the logic, and a Glossary defines statuses (C, PC, NC) and gap types (Doc., Aware., Impl., Mon., Impr.). No training required.

Why this tool is different?
Most ISO 27001 checklists are written by generalists. This one is built by a Certified Lead Auditor who has sat on both sides of the certification audit.
The tool is macro‑free – no scripts, no security risks, no "crashes." It runs on Excel 2010 and later. You own the file forever; no subscription fees.

Who is this for?
•  Small and medium enterprises preparing for their first ISO 27001 certification
•  Consultants who need a repeatable, credible gap analysis for clients
•  Security practitioners who want to identify weaknesses before the official audit

What this tool does not include – This listing is for the Self‑Assessment Tool only. It does not include ISMS Manual, or full policy/procedure suite.

Immediate download – After purchase, you receive the editable Excel file. No waiting, no complex setup.

Take the guesswork out of your ISO 27001 journey. Buy with confidence – backed by 15+ years of real‑world security leadership.
