Accelerate ISO 27001 Compliance with Databunker Pro

ISO 27001 is a globally recognized standard for Information Security Management Systems (ISMS). Unlike self-assessed frameworks, ISO 27001 requires certification by an accredited body — an external auditor evaluates your controls against Annex A requirements. Certification demonstrates a commitment to information security, fostering trust with customers, partners, and regulators.

This document maps ISO 27001’s Annex A controls to the Databunker platform and shows how each one is addressed.

🛡️

Databunker DPO

Data subject requests, privacy operations & personal data reports


🔒 Access Control — A.9
A.9.1 IT Security

Access Control Policy

Restrict access to information and information processing facilities based on business and security requirements.

Databunker Pro enforces role-based access control (RBAC) with granular permissions. API-only access eliminates SQL/GraphQL injection risks. Multi-tenancy with row-level isolation ensures data separation between organizations.
A.9.2 IT Compliance

User Access Management

Ensure authorized user access and prevent unauthorized access to systems and services.

Databunker Pro user privacy portal provides passwordless access (email/SMS one-time codes) for data subjects. Token-based authentication and RBAC ensure only authorized users interact with data. Databunker DPO automates data subject requests, reducing administrative burden.
🔐 Cryptography — A.10
A.10.1 Security IT

Cryptographic Controls

Ensure proper and effective use of cryptography to protect the confidentiality, authenticity, and integrity of information.

Databunker Pro uses AES-256 encryption (FIPS 140-2 compliant) for all records at rest, SSL encryption in transit, secure hash-based search indexes, and encryption key rotation via API. Shamir's Secret Sharing protects the master key for recovery.
🗄️ Asset Management — A.8
A.8.2 Security Compliance

Information Classification

Classify information in terms of legal requirements, value, criticality, and sensitivity.

Databunker Pro tokenization replaces sensitive data (credit cards, PII, PHI) with tokens — classifying and protecting confidential assets throughout their lifecycle. Databunker Radar detects PII, PHI, and PCI data across S3 buckets, DynamoDB, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQL Server to identify where sensitive data lives.
📊 Operations Security — A.12
A.12.4 IT Security Compliance

Logging and Monitoring

Record events, generate evidence, and ensure the integrity of logging information.

Databunker Pro generates detailed, encrypted audit trails for all operations — tracking who accessed what data and when. PII within audit events is encrypted. Databunker Radar runs continuous or scheduled scans with PDF/CSV compliance reports ready for auditors.
A.12.3 IT Security

Backup

Maintain backup copies of information, software, and system images.

Databunker Pro supports encrypted automatic backups. Shamir's Secret Sharing ensures master key recovery even if key custodians are unavailable.
🚨 Incident Management — A.16
A.16.1 Security IT Compliance

Management of Information Security Incidents

Ensure consistent and effective approach to the management of information security incidents.

Databunker Pro audit trails provide forensic data for incident investigation — who accessed what, when, and what changed. Databunker Radar integrates with Slack, Jira, Linear, and email for real-time alerting on security issues and misconfigurations.
📋 Compliance — A.18
A.18.1 Compliance Legal

Compliance with Legal and Contractual Requirements

Ensure compliance with legislative, regulatory, and contractual requirements related to information security.

Databunker Pro built-in consent management, data minimization APIs, and "forget-me" operations enforce security policies automatically. Databunker DPO handles data subject requests with full audit trails, maintaining compliance records for GDPR, DPDP Act, HIPAA, and other regulations.
A.18.2 Compliance Security

Information Security Reviews

Conduct independent reviews of the organization's approach to managing information security.

Databunker Radar provides continuous compliance posture monitoring — scanning cloud infrastructure against 1000+ checks mapped to ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS. PDF/CSV reports are ready for auditors and independent reviewers.
🔒 Data Protection — A.5
A.5.1 Compliance Developers

Policies for Information Security

Provide management direction and support for information security in accordance with business requirements.

Databunker Pro enforces security policies automatically — consent management, data minimization, retention/disposal policies with sliding and absolute TTLs. Comprehensive documentation of security controls supports ISMS audits.
👤 Privacy & Data Subject Rights
A.9.2 Compliance IT

Data Subject Access and Correction

Manage user access and data subject requests securely.

Databunker Pro user privacy portal enables data subjects to view, correct, update, or delete their data. Databunker DPO lets a DPO look up any data subject across all connected sources — databases, SaaS tools, and Databunker Pro — and generate a complete personal data report.
Compliance IT

Data Disposal and Minimization

Securely dispose of data that is no longer needed and minimize data collection.

Databunker Pro automated "forget-me" operations, credit card deduplication, and TTL-based expiration ensure timely disposal of unnecessary data. Databunker Radar scans databases and cloud storage to discover PII you didn't know you were keeping.
🔍 Cloud Security & Data Discovery
Security IT

Cloud Security Posture

Monitor cloud infrastructure for misconfigurations, open ports, and policy violations.

Databunker Radar scans your AWS, Azure, and GCP accounts against 1000+ security checks — mapped to ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS frameworks. Get a compliance score and actionable fixes.
Security IT

PII Discovery

Identify where sensitive data lives across your infrastructure.

Databunker Radar detects PII, PHI, and PCI data across S3 buckets, DynamoDB tables, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQL Server databases. Databunker DPO connects to SaaS vendors (HubSpot, Salesforce, Mailchimp) to map personal data across your entire stack.
⚠️ Requirements Outside Databunker's Scope

The following ISO 27001 requirements are organizational responsibilities:

A.7 HR Compliance

Human Resource Security

Background checks, terms of employment, security awareness training, and disciplinary processes. These are HR and management responsibilities that require organizational policies and programs.

A.11 IT Security

Physical and Environmental Security

Physical access controls for secure areas, equipment protection, cabling security, and secure disposal of equipment. Databunker secures the data layer — physical premises security requires separate controls.

A.6 Compliance HR

Organization of Information Security

Internal organization of security roles, segregation of duties, contact with authorities, and project management security. These require management structure and governance policies.

A.15 Compliance Legal

Supplier Relationships

Information security in supplier agreements, supply chain management, and monitoring of supplier services. These require contractual and procurement processes.

Conclusion

By adopting the Databunker platform — Databunker Pro for encrypted data storage and access controls, Databunker Radar for cloud security scanning and compliance monitoring, and Databunker DPO for privacy operations and data subject requests — organizations can address the majority of ISO 27001’s Annex A technical controls. The remaining requirements (HR security, physical security, organizational governance, and supplier management) require organizational policies alongside the technical controls Databunker provides.
