ISO 27001 Advisory and Certification
ISO 27001 is an internationally recognised information security standard, developed to help organisations protect their information in a systematic and cost-effective way, through the adoption of an Information Security Management System (ISMS). It helps organisations identify, assess, manage, and mitigate the risks of handling corporate information.
Achieving ISO 27001 certification demonstrates to your customers and commercial partners that you’re committed to the highest standards of information security, which can considerably enhance your credibility and competitive edge.
Main Advantages of ISO 27001
Protect Your Data Anywhere
An ISO 27001 compliant ISMS helps protect all forms of information, whether digital, paper-based, or in the cloud.
Respond to Evolving Security Threats
ISO 27001 compliant organisations are more capable of responding to evolving information security risks due to the risk management requirements of the Standard.
Defend Against Cyber Attacks
Implementing and maintaining an ISMS will significantly reduce your organisation’s cyber security and data breach risks.
Establish an Information Security Culture
With ISO 27001 embedded in an organisation’s culture, employees are more aware of information security risks, and security measures are wide-reaching across all areas of the organisation.
Meet Contractual Obligations
Certification demonstrates your organisation’s commitment to information security and provides evidence that you have formally committed to complying with information security measures.
How does ISO 27001 benefit your organisation?
ISO 27001 assures your organisation, board members, staff, and customers that reliable systems and accountabilities are in place.

Our Approach
Scope definition
Designed for organisations beginning their compliance journey, scope definition helps stakeholders and project managers understand what systems and processes they should include within the scope of the ISO 27001 Information Security Management System (ISMS).
Internal audit
An internal audit is an ISO 27001 requirement and helps organisations planning to certify and also those who have previous certification. An audit may cover some or all of the clauses and controls in scope.
Gap analysis
A gap analysis helps organisations understand where they currently are with their Information Security Management System (ISMS) and provides them with a roadmap to certification. ​ ​
Compliance preparation services
Compliance preparation services are custom engagements designed specifically to help organisations fill the gaps highlighted in an ISO 27001 gap analysis.
