Is this for you?

Know before you book.

We help you build the information-security management system an ISO 27001 auditor certifies, so it works in practice and passes.

You likely need this if
  • A customer or tender requires ISO/IEC 27001 certification
  • You want one framework that answers most security questionnaires
  • You're selling into regulated or enterprise markets
  • You have security practices but nothing documented or audited
Something else may fit better
What to have ready
  • Leadership sponsor and an internal owner
  • Scope: which teams, sites and products
  • Existing policies, asset lists and risk records

Still not sure? Take the 2-minute check

What you walk away with.

  • A complete Statement of Applicability, justified per Annex A control
  • A Risk Treatment Plan aligned to ISO 27005 methodology
  • Internal Audit + Management Review — Clause 9 evidence
  • A certification-body-ready evidence package
Scope

What we cover

Agreed in writing before testing starts.

In scope
  • Full 2022 Annex A control set (93 controls, 4 themes)
  • Clauses 4–10: Context, Leadership, Planning, Support, Operation, Performance, Improvement
  • Statement of Applicability + Risk Treatment Plan
  • Internal Audit Programme (Clause 9.2) execution
  • Management Review evidence pack (Clause 9.3)
  • Documentation set — every policy, procedure, standard, record
Not in this engagement
  • Third-party certification-body engagement (they audit independently)
Approach

How we run it.

  1. 01

    Gap analysis

    Where you are vs where ISO 27001:2022 expects you. Every clause, every Annex A control.

  2. 02

    ISMS scoping

    Physical, logical, and organizational scope of the ISMS. Wrong scope kills more ISO 27001 projects than any control gap.

  3. 03

    Risk treatment

    ISO 27005-methodology risk assessment, treatment plan, and SoA. Evidenced to a defensible standard.

  4. 04

    Control implementation

    Design + implement missing controls with your teams. We build with you, not for you.

  5. 05

    Internal audit + review

    Clause 9.2 internal audit executed, non-conformities logged, Management Review packet delivered.

Questions

Asked before every engagement.

How long until we can be certified?

Typically 6–9 months from kickoff to Stage 1 audit-ready. Faster paths exist for smaller orgs; slower ones for complex, distributed estates.

Do you help us pick a certification body?

Yes — we advise on accredited CBs (UKAS, ANAB, etc.) and manage introductions. We take no referral commissions.

How is this different from a Security Risk Assessment?

An SRA is one-shot risk quantification. ISO 27001 is a management system with continuous governance. If certification is your goal, this is the engagement.
