Subject: ISO 27001 security ISO 27002 Password Forced Change 9.4.3 e) enforce regular password changes as needed. I'm trying to get to grips with ISO2 requirement for Password Management around Forced Change. Demystify and automate your ISO 27001 audit. Demystify and automate compliance with GDPR. Demystify and automate becoming PCI DSS compliant. Passwords for administrators: don’t share passwords – use a password manager like 1Password or Dashlane instead. Passwords for your customers: allow your customers to. If you don't have an Azure subscription, create a free account before you begin. Deploy the ISO 27001 Shared Services blueprint sample. Before this blueprint sample can be deployed, the ISO 27001 Shared Services blueprint sample must be deployed to the target subscription. Without a successful deployment of the ISO 27001 Shared Services blueprint sample, this blueprint sample will be missing.

Thanks for taking time from your busy schedule to reply to me.
Answer: ISO 27001 does not prescribe any solution to be applied for security controls in Annex A, only objectives to be achieved. This gives organizations freedom to implement the most adequate solutions according to their context. For guidelines and recommendations about what to consider in the implementation of security controls, you should consider the ISO 27002 standard.
That said, regarding security of system passwords, service passwords, and application passwords, including passwords at administrator level, you should consider ISO 27002 recommendations for the following controls:
- Control A.9.2.3 (Management of privileged access rights): for shared administration user IDs, you should consider practices like changing passwords frequently and as soon as possible when a privileged one user of these shared IDs leaves or changes job, and communicating these passwords to administrators through secure mechanisms. Besides that, all other recommendations from control A.9.3.1 (Use of secret authentication information), aimed for general users, should also be applicable to administrators.
- Control A.9.3.1 (Use of secret authentication information): when passwords need to be part of automated log on procedures they must be properly protected (e.g., do not store password on plain text)
- Control 9.4.3 (Password management system): when stored, password should be kept on files separated from application system data.

To deploy the Azure Blueprints ISO 27001 App Service Environment/SQL Database workload blueprintsample, the following steps must be taken:
- Deploy the ISO 27001 Shared Services blueprint sample
- Create a new blueprint from the sample
- Mark your copy of the sample as Published
- Assign your copy of the blueprint to an existing subscription
If you don't have an Azure subscription, create a free accountbefore you begin.
Deploy the ISO 27001 Shared Services blueprint sample
Before this blueprint sample can be deployed, the ISO 27001 SharedServices blueprint sample must be deployed to the targetsubscription. Without a successful deployment of the ISO 27001 Shared Services blueprint sample,this blueprint sample will be missing infrastructure dependencies and fail during deployment.
Important
This blueprint sample must be assigned in the same subscription as the ISO 27001 Shared Servicesblueprint sample.
Create blueprint from sample
First, implement the blueprint sample by creating a new blueprint in your environment using thesample as a starter.
Select All services in the left pane. Search for and select Blueprints.
From the Getting started page on the left, select the Create button under Create ablueprint.
Find the ISO 27001: ASE/SQL Workload blueprint sample under Other Samples and select Usethis sample.
Enter the Basics of the blueprint sample:
- Blueprint name: Provide a name for your copy of the ISO 27001 ASE/SQL workload blueprintsample.
- Definition location: Use the ellipsis and select the management group to save your copy ofthe sample to.
Select the Artifacts tab at the top of the page or Next: Artifacts at the bottom of thepage.
Review the list of artifacts that make up the blueprint sample. Many of the artifacts haveparameters that we'll define later. Select Save Draft when you've finished reviewing theblueprint sample.

Publish the sample copy
Your copy of the blueprint sample has now been created in your environment. It's created inDraft mode and must be Published before it can be assigned and deployed. The copy of theblueprint sample can be customized to your environment and needs, but that modification may move itaway from the ISO 27001 standard.
Select All services in the left pane. Search for and select Blueprints.
Select the Blueprint definitions page on the left. Use the filters to find your copy of theblueprint sample and then select it.
Select Publish blueprint at the top of the page. In the new page on the right, provide aVersion for your copy of the blueprint sample. This property is useful for if you make amodification later. Provide Change notes such as 'First version published from the ISO 27001blueprint sample.' Then select Publish at the bottom of the page.
Assign the sample copy
Once the copy of the blueprint sample has been successfully Published, it can be assigned to asubscription within the management group it was saved to. This step is where parameters areprovided to make each deployment of the copy of the blueprint sample unique.
Select All services in the left pane. Search for and select Blueprints.
Select the Blueprint definitions page on the left. Use the filters to find your copy of theblueprint sample and then select it.
Select Assign blueprint at the top of the blueprint definition page.
Provide the parameter values for the blueprint assignment:
Basics
- Subscriptions: Select one or more of the subscriptions that are in the management groupyou saved your copy of the blueprint sample to. If you select more than one subscription, anassignment will be created for each using the parameters entered.
- Assignment name: The name is pre-populated for you based on the name of the blueprint.Change as needed or leave as is.
- Location: Select a region for the managed identity to be created in. Azure Blueprint usesthis managed identity to deploy all artifacts in the assigned blueprint. To learn more, seemanaged identities for Azure resources.
- Blueprint definition version: Pick a Published version of your copy of the blueprintsample.
Lock Assignment
Select the blueprint lock setting for your environment. For more information, see blueprints resource locking.
Managed Identity
Leave the default system assigned managed identity option.
Blueprint parameters
The parameters defined in this section are used by many of the artifacts in the blueprintdefinition to provide consistency.
- Organization name: Enter a short-name for your organization. This property is primarilyused for naming resources.
- Shared Service Subscription ID: Subscription ID where the ISO 27001 Shared Servicesblueprint sample is assigned.
- Default subnet address prefix: The CIDR notation for the virtual network default subnet.Default value is 10.1.0.0/24.
- Workload location: Determines what location the artifacts are deployed to. Not allservices are available in all locations. Artifacts deploying such services provide aparameter option for the location to deploy that artifact to.
Artifact parameters
The parameters defined in this section apply to the artifact under which it's defined. Theseparameters are dynamic parameters sincethey're defined during the assignment of the blueprint. For a full list or artifact parametersand their descriptions, see Artifact parameters table.
Once all parameters have been entered, select Assign at the bottom of the page. The blueprintassignment is created and artifact deployment begins. Deployment takes roughly an hour. To checkon the status of deployment, open the blueprint assignment.
Warning
The Azure Blueprints service and the built-in blueprint samples are free of cost. Azureresources are priced by product. Use the pricing calculatorto estimate the cost of running resources deployed by this blueprint sample.
