APMG-International ISO-IEC-27001-Foundation Exam - Topic 2 Question 7 Discussion

Actual exam question for APMG-International's ISO-IEC-27001-Foundation exam
Question #: 7
Topic #: 2
[All ISO-IEC-27001-Foundation Questions]

Which item is required to be included in an information security policy?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Clause 5.2 (Information security policy) requires that the policy:

''includes information security objectives (or provides a framework for setting them)''

''includes a commitment to satisfy applicable requirements related to information security''

''includes a commitment to continual improvement of the ISMS.''

Among the listed options, the exact mandatory requirement is ''a commitment to satisfy applicable requirements related to information security''. Option B partially reflects Clause 5.2 (commitment to continual improvement), but the wording given in the standard prioritizes the satisfaction of applicable requirements (e.g., legal, regulatory, contractual). Option C is not a policy requirement. Option D (Statement of Applicability) is a separate mandatory document (Clause 6.1.3) and not part of the policy itself.

Thus, the correct answer is A.
