ISO 27001 Readiness
ISO 27001 Scoping & Readiness is the critical first step in preparing your organization for ISO 27001 certification
What is it?
ISO 27001 Scoping & Readiness is the critical first step in preparing your organization for ISO 27001 certification.
This phase involves defining the scope of your Information Security Management System (ISMS) and evaluating your organization's current readiness to meet the stringent requirements set forth by the ISO 27001 standard.
Proper scoping and readiness assessment are essential for establishing a robust ISMS that effectively manages information security risks.
Our Process
1
Scope Definition
Collaborative Boundary Setting: We work closely with your team to define the boundaries of the ISMS. This includes identifying which processes, departments, and information assets will be included in the scope.
Identification of Assets: We help catalog information assets, including hardware, software, data, and personnel, ensuring all relevant elements are considered.
Determining Exclusions: We also identify any assets or processes that will be excluded from the ISMS, providing a clear rationale for these decisions.
2
Readiness Assessment
Comprehensive Evaluation: Our team conducts a thorough assessment of your organization’s current security controls and practices. This involves reviewing existing policies, procedures, and technological measures against ISO 27001 requirements.
Gap Analysis: We identify gaps in your current information security posture, highlighting areas that need improvement to achieve compliance with the ISO 27001 standard.
Risk Assessment: An initial risk assessment may be performed to understand potential threats and vulnerabilities related to the identified assets.
3
Stakeholder Engagement
Involvement of Key Personnel: We engage key stakeholders from various departments to ensure they understand and support the scoping process.
This collaboration fosters a culture of security awareness and ownership throughout the organization.
Alignment of Goals: By involving stakeholders early in the process, we ensure alignment between business objectives and information security requirements, paving the way for a successful ISMS implementation.
