What is ISO 27001 certification and what does it mean to be certified?

ISO 27001 certification shows that your organisation has invested resources into people, procedures and technology (for example, tools and systems) to safeguard its data and services. It provides an unbiased expert opinion on whether your data is adequtely safeguarded. 

Having an ISO 27001-Compliant ISMS in place allows you to efficiently and cost-effectively monitor the security, quality and availability of all organisational data - and also instill confidence in your customers, investors and other interested parties that you are following international best practices when it comes to information security. The certification must be obtained through a recognised certification organisation.

What are the benefits of ISO 27001 certification?

Three reasons why you need InfoSec-as-a-Service

1. Earn customer trust and confidence

Provide clients the reassurance that their personal data/information is safe and secure, and that their privacy is respected at all times.

 

2. Lower chance of a costly breach

Identify statutory and regulatory requirements that affect your organisation and its consumers – and you'll be less likely to be prosecuted and fined.

 

3. Belief in the organisation's long-term viability

Long-term sustainability is achieved by risk management, legal compliance, and awareness of possible security risks and concerns.

 

4. Gain more business from existing and new consumers

Certification is frequently required as a condition of supply in procurement specifications, therefore certification and verification open opportunities.

 

5. Protect intellectual property, brand, and reputation

The Certification is widely recognized and accepted across industrial supply chains, establishing industry criteria for sourcing providers.

Certification process

Path

Create and develop the ISO 27001 standard's main document.

Decide whether you will hire a consultant or have the necessary in-house skills. Define the ISMS scope, which could include the entire organisation or just a single department. Make a list of your objectives,compelling reasons to act, and any deadlines you want to meet, as well as the repercussions if you stray off track.

Assist in the creation, development, and implementation of an information security risk assessment.

Set your baseline security criteria before conducting a risk assessment. This refers to the organisation's information security in business, legal, and regulatory needs, as well as its contractual commitments.

Compile the necessary Annex A control documents.

Explain why you are implementing or not implementing each control, as well as if it is implemented. If you need to limit the risks, you can implement new controls that aren't listed in Annex A.

Arrange for a management review to be conducted.

Measure how well your ISMS is performing, given everything defined in the preceding parts. You must know what you should measure, who should measure it, how to measure it, and when to measure it.

Conduct an internal ISO 27001 audit

Conducting internal audits of the ISMS are required by ISO/IEC 27001:2013 at predetermined periods.The manager in charge of establishing and maintaining ISO 27001 compliance must have a practical understanding of the lead audit process.

What are the costs of ISO 27001 certification?

It depends. ISO 27001 certification can cost as little as £10,000 and as much as £48,000 in total. The total cost of becoming ISO 27001 certified is determined by a number of factors, including risk, the amount of risk an organisation is prepared to tolerate, the size of your organisation, and the certifying authority you choose.

How long is the ISO 27001 certification valid for?

When an organisation receives an ISO 27001 certificate, it is valid for three years, during which time the certifying body will undertake surveillance audits to ensure that the ISMS is being properly maintained and that needed improvements are being made on time.
