ISO 27001 Intune evidence
ISO 27001 Intune evidence can show mapped device settings and how configuration changed between backups. Use TenuVault's ISO/IEC 27001:2022 comparison and change reports as inputs to your information security management system review.
What does the ISMS owner need from Intune?
An audit request for endpoint evidence needs context: which systems are in the information security management system, which risks the controls address and who owns the decisions. ISO/IEC 27001 specifies requirements for an information security management system and a risk management process. A configuration report supports that work without replacing the management system.
TenuVault lists ISO/IEC 27001:2022 as a native comparison. Start from your approved control selection and record how the mapped findings support it. Do not treat the product's technical mapping as the organization's statement of applicability, or infer that an unmapped organizational requirement has been assessed.
How do I collect configuration for selected ISO controls?
Ask the ISMS owner for one selected technical control and the systems it covers. If the request concerns encryption on managed laptops, inspect Intune disk encryption policies and their assigned groups. Microsoft provides separate BitLocker and FileVault policy support for Windows and macOS. Match the platform to the request instead of collecting unrelated policies from the entire tenant.
For a device hardening request, review the relevant configuration profiles and their deployment status. Note conflicting settings and devices that have not reported the intended configuration. Keep the device population with the collection date so the ISMS owner can see which part of the selected control your material describes.
This is a collection plan for the organization's chosen controls, not a new interpretation of ISO requirements. Intune manages technical settings; those settings do not establish risk ownership, the rationale for control selection or whether an exception is acceptable. Obtain that context before sending a large export that the reviewer cannot connect to a decision.
How do I map ISO 27001 Intune evidence?
1. Select ISO/IEC 27001:2022 in the tenant's Frameworks catalog. Use Publisher reference to confirm the standard and About this comparison to understand the technical scope.
2. Choose the platforms relevant to the selected ISO control and start Compare settings. The operation reads configuration without applying a control or changing a policy.
3. Find the capability related to the reviewer's request, then read its source policies and assignment evidence. Consult Framework references to retain the mapped identifier with your explanation.
4. Export a PDF for the review or CSV/JSON for further analysis. Include unresolved collection gaps alongside the result rather than turning an unavailable value into a successful check.
The ISO native mapping and PDF, CSV and JSON output are included in Community, while generating the change reports described below requires Pro or MSP.
How do I explain an exception to the ISMS owner?
For each selected technical control, retain the reference identifier, expected capability and observed settings. Add the policy owner, affected population and exception decision in your evidence register. When a reviewer asks why a setting changed, use a report between two relevant backups and attach the approval separately. A difference explains the stored configuration; it does not by itself prove that change management was followed.
Use a concrete exception, such as a laptop group excluded from encryption, to explain the difference between intended policy and accepted risk. The administrator can show the assignment; the ISMS owner must explain the decision. Record a review date so a temporary exclusion does not disappear into the next reporting cycle.
For recurring reviews, retain the mapping version and platform selection with each comparison. If you change either, explain why the new result has a different basis. That is more useful than presenting a rising match count without saying what was added to the scope.
How do I show the history behind a configuration decision?
When the ISMS review asks why configuration changed, use Reports on Pro or MSP. Choose two complete backups spanning the approved modification and select Generate report. The resulting PDF, Markdown or JSON identifies stored changes and available audit actors; attach the approval and exception decision yourself.
Read the Not compared section and any attribution limitations before sharing the document. Older audit records may no longer be available, so an unnamed actor is a gap to explain rather than a reason to guess. The report describes change between backups and does not establish that the organization followed its change procedure.
What is a useful first ISO evidence request?
Download TenuVault and map ISO 27001 Intune evidence for one control selected by your ISMS owner. Agree whether that small packet answers the request before collecting the remaining controls.

Frequently asked questions
Can this report certify ISO/IEC 27001 compliance?+
No. The comparison supplies technical evidence. Certification concerns the organization's management system and the applicable audit process.
Do I need a change report for every comparison?+
Use one when the review needs an explanation of changes between backups. A framework comparison describes the selected configuration scope at collection time.
What if the change actor is missing?+
Record that limitation and seek the approval or operational record separately. Audit retention and available permissions can limit actor attribution.
