What is ISO 27001 Certification?
ISO 27001 Certification is
an international standard that determines the necessities for an ISMS
(information security management system) in the context of an organizations
risks. It indicates requirements for actualizing information security controls
and against which organizations can become certified. It can apply to any type
of business.
What are the benefits of complying/ certifying with ISO 27001?
Avoid hefty fines: ISO 27001 is the accepted global benchmark for
the effective management of information assets. It enables organizations to
avoid the costly penalties associated with non-compliance with data protection
requirements and the financial losses resulting from data breaches.
Protect your reputation: Cyber attacks are on the increase in
Ireland, and can have a massive impact on your organization and its reputation.
An ISO 27001-certified ISMS (information security management system) helps
protect your organization and keeps you out of the headlines!
Comply with business, legal,
contractual and regulatory requirements: ISO 27001 certification is also in line with
rigid regulatory requirements such as the GDPR (General Data Protection
Regulation), the NIS Directive (Directive on security of network and
information systems) and other cyber security laws.
Improve structure and focus: When an organization grows rapidly, it does not
take long before there is confusion around responsibility for information
assets. ISO 27001 helps organizations set up clear information risk
responsibilities.
Reduce the need for frequent
audits: ISO 27001 certification
is globally accepted and demonstrates effective security, reducing the need for
repeat customer audits.
Why You Need ISO
27001 Certification
ISO 27001 certification applies to any organization
that wishes or is required to, formalize and improve business processes around
the securing of its information assets.
This
is not dictated by the size or turnover of an organization as even the smallest
of organizations may have powerful customers or other stakeholders, such as
investors, who look for the assurances from having UQAS ISO 27001 certification offer.
It
really is about trust and demonstrating your organization
has put in place the people, processes, tools, and systems to a recognized
standard. Imagine a world of financial reporting or health and safety without
standards. Information security is a bit behind those areas from a
certification and independent audit perspective but with the pace of change
accelerating for almost everything, smarter organizations are getting ahead,
internally and in particular with their supply chain too. So you can look
at certification through two lenses;
1 – as a customer you’d want
to take confidence that your relevant suppliers are certified, not least to
help mitigate your business risks let alone exploit some of the opportunities
e.g. from more consistent, higher standards along with lower total cost and
risk of work you encounter from them.
2 – your customers are
getting smarter; they like you need to know that the supply chain is protected
adequately. Powerful customers are simply mandating ISO 27001
certification now and transferring all the risk they can down the supply chain.
There are other spinoff benefits too let alone all the extra business you’ll
win from being certified versus laggards who are not. For example, well-informed
staff will want to work for trusted brands, and as insurers catch up with
better ways of working it should also mean lower premiums for organizations
with independently certified ISO 27001.
How ISO 27001 differ from ISO 27002
There are three main differences between ISO 27001 and ISO 27002:
Detail
If
ISO 27001 went into as much detail as ISO 27002, it would be unnecessarily long
and complicated.
Instead,
it provides an outline of each aspect of an ISMS, with specific advice being
found in additional standards. ISO 27002 is only one of these. For example, ISO
27003 covers ISMS implementation guidance and ISO 27004 covers the monitoring,
measurement, analysis and evaluation of the ISMS.
Certification
You
can certify to ISO 27001 but not to ISO 27002. That’s because ISO 27001 is a
management standard that provides a full list of compliance requirements,
whereas supplementary standards such as ISO 27002 address one specific aspect
of an ISMS.
Applicability
A
key thing to consider when implementing an ISMS is that not all information
security controls will apply to your organisation.
ISO
27001 makes that clear, specifying that organisations conduct a risk assessment
to identify and prioritise information security threats. ISO 27002 doesn’t
mention this, so if you were to pick up the Standard by itself, it would be
practically impossible to figure out which controls you should adopt.

How can we achieve certification?
The initial step is typically for a Gap Analysis to be
conducted. QCL or one of its partners can do that for you - or you can choose
to do it yourself. Your ISMS should be established, documented, implemented and
maintained to address the gaps identified and meet the relevant requirements of
ISO 27001’s 7 clauses and 114 controls as applicable. To achieve certification,
the ISMS must be effectively audited by an auditor or auditor team belonging to
a certification body. There must be no major non conformities
What is the cost of certification?
The cost will depend on the size of your organization, risk and other factors. We will gladly provide you with a competitive, no-obligation proposal.
How long would it take to get
a proposal for certification?
With the required information, we can
provide an estimate in 2-3 business days. Please allow 5 business days for a
formal proposal to allow for our internal quality assurance checks.
