Part-IS.I.OR — Regulation Overview

102 sections · 600 audit questions · Implementing Rule, AMC and GM · v2025-12-05

Part-IS.I.OR is the Implementing Rule version of the information-security regime — applicable to ATM/ANS providers and a handful of other organisation types that fall outside the DR’s scope. The substantive controls are nearly identical to Part-IS.D.OR, but the obligated-party language and the audit chain differ.

Authoring both IS Parts in parallel made the structural alignment obvious — and the small but important divergences explicit. The checklist for this Part mirrors the IS.D.OR audit grain, with the IR/DR-specific language and references adjusted throughout so the auditor working under the IR isn’t reading delegated-regulation phrasing.
