A.6.1.2 Segregation of duties
A.6.1.2 in ISO 27001:2013 (ISO/IEC 27001:2013). All ISO 27001:2013 controls held. Open ISO 27001:2013 on the standards site.
The control as we hold it
Segregation of duties. Duties and areas of responsibility that conflict are split between different people, to cut the chance of the organization's assets being changed or misused, whether deliberately or by mistake, without authority. As an Annex A reference control it is compared with the controls chosen in risk treatment (6.1.3 c) and recorded in the Statement of Applicability, included with a reason and an implementation status or excluded with a reason (6.1.3 d). Carried into ISO/IEC 27001:2022 as A.5.3.
