ISO 27001 Certification
Information Security Management
ISO 27001 is the internationally recognised Standard for Information Security which is published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). The Standard provides the framework for an effective Information Security Management System (ISMS). It sets out the policies and procedures needed to protect organisations and includes all the risk controls necessary for robust IT security management.
ISO 27001 certification is designed to cover much more than just IT. An important part of the ISO 27001 Standard concerns data security across all areas of a business – whether it’s online or offline. ISO 27001 certification is suitable for businesses of all sizes, from startups to larger organisations. With new changes to ISO 27001 being recently implemented, it’s important to make sure your business stays compliant with the latest changes and gets ahead of any cyber threats your organisation may face.

Getting certified for ISO 27001 requires the development of an information security management system that meets all the requirements of the ISO 27001 Standard. With Citation ISO Certification by your side, we can help you meet all the requirements of the Standard in three simple steps.
Getting to grips with the gaps
We’ll spend some time with you carrying out a gap analysis to see how your current processes and procedures match up to the requirements of the ISO 27001 Standard.

Getting ISO certification
An ISO auditor will check you’ve addressed any gaps correctly and that you’re following the documented processes. Once everything is in place, you’ll be recommended for certification. Your new certificate and certification marks will be ready to download from Atlas.

The benefits of ISO 27001
Here are the top benefits of using the ISO 27001 framework:
Compliance: An Information Security Management system demonstrates your compliance with internationally recognised standards of information security, helping you to fulfil your legal obligations and comply with regulations (e.g. SOX).
Confidentiality: It keeps confidential information secure by putting in place robust security policies and access management, allowing for the secure exchange of information
Risk management: The Standard manages and minimises risk exposure, providing customers and stakeholders with confidence in how you manage data security risk.
Customer satisfaction: Through improved information security measures you can enhance customer confidence and satisfaction which leads to improved client retention.
Culture of security: Businesses get buy-in from your employees and stakeholders, building a culture of security
All-round-protection: With greater awareness of security obligations and improved security practices it helps protect the company, assets, shareholders and directors.
