How to Assess AWS Services for ISO27001 Compliance?

Hey everyone! I'm looking to conduct an ISO27001 assessment (specifically Annex A) on the AWS services in my account to ensure they're compliant with this standard. I was thinking of enabling AWS Config and AWS Security Hub, but I discovered that Security Hub doesn't support the ISO27001 framework. I'm unsure of the best approach here. Would it make sense to pick a CIS framework and do some mapping instead? Any insights would be appreciated!

Hey! I'd suggest looking into AWS Audit Manager. It offers prebuilt frameworks which might be perfect for what you need. There's also a thorough resource on CIS Benchmarks that could be useful. Check out those links if you have time!

ISO_Nerd: Thanks for the tips! The Audit Manager sounds promising, and I like that it provides mappings for AWS config rules related to ISO27001.
