PECB ISO 28000 Transition · Work through your exam, one topic at a time.
The PECB Certified ISO 28000:2022 Transition credential is a short, focused qualification for people who already work with ISO 28000 and need to move from the 2007 edition to the 2022 edition. The standard was published in March 2022 and now follows the harmonized structure of ISO, with security management system (SeMS) requirements set out in clauses 4 to 10, which makes integration with other ISO-based management systems easier. Its title also changed from Specification for security management systems for the supply chain to Security and resilience – Security management systems – Requirements, signalling that the requirements apply to all organizations, not only those in the supply chain. The course suits individuals keeping up to date with ISO 28000, those responsible for transitioning an SeMS, and managers, trainers, and consultants who maintain one. Topics on this exam: Differences between main clauses of ISO 28000:2022 and ISO 28000:2007 and Understand, interpret, and plan the implementation of ISO 28000:2022 changes. The PECB ISO 28000 Transition study guide has 2 sections and about 813 words.
01Differences Between the Main Clauses of ISO 28000:2022 and ISO 28000:2007
This domain tests whether you can identify structural and substantive changes between the 2007 specification and the 2022 requirements standard. Exam questions commonly ask where a concept now sits, which requirement disappeared, or how terminology changed. ISO 28000:2007 used clauses 4.1 to 4.8: general requirements, security management policy, risk assessment, objectives and targets, implementation and operation, checking and corrective action, management review, and continual improvement. ISO 28000:2022 adopts the Annex SL high-level structure with clauses 4 to 10: context of the organization, leadership, planning, support, operation, performance evaluation, and improvement.

This domain tests transition planning: how to interpret the 2022 requirements, convert them into a credible implementation plan, and produce evidence that satisfies a certification body. Compare the 2022 clauses against your existing 2007 system and classify each gap as new, moved, removed, or renamed. Do not assume one-to-one mapping. Establish what clause 4 requires for your organization: external and internal issues, interested parties and their requirements, and the boundary of the security management system.
