Implementation of the controls before audit

If you go for the certification audit, you should have most of your controls implemented, and make sure that controls that mitigate the biggest risks are fully implemented.

In other words, you can leave only a smaller number of less significant controls to be implemented after the certification. In such a case, you have to ask risk owners to accept the residual risks.
