What are the Requirements of ISO/IEC 27099:2022?
Understanding the Core Requirements of ISO/IEC 27099:2022
The ISO/IEC 27099:2022 standard delineates several key requirements to ensure the implementation of a secure and efficient public key infrastructure:
Policy Framework
A structured policy framework is essential for managing PKI operations. Organizations must establish, document, and maintain policies that govern the issuance, renewal, and revocation of digital certificates. It also includes specifying roles and responsibilities, security controls, and procedural requirements.
Cryptographic Key Management
Effective key management practices are crucial. Organizations must implement procedures for the secure generation, distribution, storage, and destruction of cryptographic keys.
Certificate Authority (CA) Operations
The CA is a critical component of PKI. ISO/IEC 27099 mandates that CAs operate with stringent security measures, also includes physical and logical security controls, regular audits, and adherence to documented policies and procedures.
Subscriber and Relying Party Obligations
Subscribers, entities that are issued digital certificates, and relying parties, those who trust the certificates, must adhere to defined obligations. This includes verifying the identity of subscribers, maintaining the confidentiality of private keys, and ensuring the validity of certificates.
Compliance and Audit Requirements
Regular audits and assessments are necessary to ensure ongoing compliance with the standard. Organizations must conduct internal audits and may also be subject to external audits by certification bodies.
