Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical
Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are
members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical
committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical
activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the
work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee,
ISO/IEC JTC 1.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for
the different types of document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject
of patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent
rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the
Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the WTO principles in the Technical
Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following URL: Foreword - Supplementary information

Introduction
ISO/IEC 17021-1 sets out criteria for bodies operating audit and certification of management systems. If
such bodies are to be accredited as complying with ISO/IEC 17021-1 with the objective of auditing and
certifying information security management systems (ISMS) in accordance with ISO/IEC 27001:2013
and possibly sector-specific standard extensions of ISO/IEC 27001, some additional requirements and
guidance to ISO/IEC 17021-1 are necessary. These are provided by this Document.
The text in this Document follows the structure of ISO/IEC 17021-1 and the additional ISMS-specific
requirements and guidance on the application of ISO/IEC 17021-1 for ISMS certification are identified
by the letters “IS”.
The term “shall” is used throughout this Document to indicate those provisions which, reflecting the
requirements of ISO/IEC 17021-1 and ISO/IEC 27001, are mandatory. The term “should” is used to
indicate recommendation.
The primary purpose of this Document is to enable accreditation bodies to more effectively harmonize
their application of the standards against which they are bound to assess certification bodies.
Throughout this Document, the terms “management system” and “system” are used interchangeably.
The definition of a management system can be found in ISO 9000:2005. The management system as
used in this Document is not to be confused with other types of systems, such as IT systems.
The certification body may offer audit and certification services to sector-specific standard extensions
of ISO/IEC 27001 in addition to audit and certification to ISO/IEC 27001.
NOTE The extension of ISO/IEC 7001 through the application of a sector-specific standard does not result in
a management system independent of the ISMS.
