ISO 27701: Compliance Practices and Controls

The ISO/IEC 27701:2025 PIMS, standalone or integrated with the ISMS.

Prepares students to implement a Privacy Information Management System (PIMS) according to ISO/IEC 27701:2025, meeting the privacy requirements for controllers and processors.

The 2025 edition turned 27701 into a management system standard in its own right: the PIMS can be implemented and certified without ISO/IEC 27001, or integrated with an existing ISMS. The course covers both paths.

Cyber Cultura badge: ISO 27701

Who it’s for

  • DPOs and privacy professionals who will implement or maintain a PIMS.
  • ISMS owners who want to integrate privacy into the management system.
  • Companies that process personal data as processors and need to demonstrate compliance to their customers.

What you’ll develop

  • Map processing activities (ROPA) and legal bases, and carry out the DPIA.
  • Govern data subject rights and privacy notices.
  • Implement the Annex A controls for controllers and processors, and third-party contracts.
  • Integrate privacy into the development lifecycle, logging, masking, retention and disposal.
  • Measure compliance: the PIMS Statement of Applicability, LGPD and 27701 metrics, and audits.

Syllabus

5 hours

01Fundamentals of ISO/IEC 27701:2025 and the PIMS
  • The PIMS as a management system in its own right, certifiable without ISO/IEC 27001, and integration with an existing ISMS
  • What changed from the 2019 edition and how to transition
  • Roles and responsibilities: controller and processor, DPO or Encarregado, process and data owners
  • Privacy principles and how to evidence them (LGPD)
02Structure of ISO/IEC 27701:2025
  • Clauses 4 to 10: PIMS requirements (context, leadership, planning, support, operation, performance evaluation and improvement)
  • Annex A: PIMS reference controls for controllers, for processors, and information security controls common to both
  • Annex B: implementation guidance for the controls
  • Correspondence with ISO/IEC 27001 and 27002 and with privacy regulations
03Privacy governance and PIMS documents
  • Corporate privacy policy, standards and procedures (document architecture)
  • Privacy Committee, cadence, decision log and integration with the security committee
  • Privacy risks (integration with ISO/IEC 27005 and ISO 31000) and high-risk criteria
04Record of processing activities (ROPA) and legal bases
  • Minimum fields: purposes, legal bases, categories, systems, third parties, retention and measures
  • LGPD legal bases and selection with evidence
  • LIA (legitimate interest assessment): purpose, necessity and balancing
  • Continuous updates: changes, new third parties and new purposes
05DPIA: Data Protection Impact Assessment
  • Triggers: high risk, sensitive and children’s data, automated decisions, monitoring and new technologies
  • Structure: necessity and proportionality, risks to data subjects, mitigations and decision
  • Approval by the DPO or Committee and revalidation upon material change
06Data subject rights
  • Portal and channels, identity verification, deadlines and exceptions
  • Workflows by right: access, correction, deletion, portability, withdrawal of consent and review of automated decisions
  • Audit trails and effectiveness metrics
07Controller: Annex A controls
  • Transparency and notices, purpose and minimization, privacy by default
  • Consent and preferences; cookie and SDK management
  • Retention and disposal; classification and lifecycle
  • International transfers: legal grounds and safeguards
  • Contracts with processors: instructions, subprocessors, security, audit, deletion and return
08Processor: Annex A controls
  • Processing under the controller’s instructions and record of activities
  • Security and confidentiality; segregation; incident notification
  • Subprocessors: approval and control; return and deletion of data at termination
  • Periodic evidence to the controller: reports, tests and certifications
09Privacy in engineering and the development lifecycle
  • Privacy requirements in user stories; threat modeling, including LINDDUN
  • SAST, DAST, SCA and secret scanning with privacy checks
  • Logs with minimization and masking; environment segregation; policy-as-code in CI/CD
  • De-identification: pseudonymization, anonymization, tokenization, encryption and key management
10Third parties and the supply chain
  • Due diligence by criticality: evidence, certifications, SOC 2, pentest and cloud posture
  • Data processing agreement (DPA) and LGPD clauses: notification, support for rights, deletion and transfer
  • Continuous monitoring, SLAs and secure offboarding, with a certificate of destruction or return
11Personal data incidents
  • Classification of severity and of risk to data subjects; coordination with SecOps
  • Criteria and content for notifying data subjects and the ANPD (Brazil’s data protection authority), where applicable
  • Chain of custody, communication and corrective actions; updating the DPIA and the controls
12Continuity and ICT readiness for privacy
  • RTO and RPO for services with personal data; failover and restore with integrity and security validation
  • Immutable backups and disposal consistent with the retention policy
  • Integrated tests (tabletops) with personal data scenarios
13Metrics, audits and Statement of Applicability
  • KPIs and KRIs: data subject requests, evidenced legal bases, current DPIAs, processors with a DPA, and incidents
  • PIMS Statement of Applicability (Annex A) and compliance matrix between the LGPD and 27701
  • Internal and external audits, nonconformities and corrective actions; exceptions and privacy risk acceptance
14Simulated example and practical artifacts
