Implementing ISO 27001

Can you provide some guidance?

XXXX is a tiny company - just me and my co-founder. However, I am finding that some of my larger prospects require ISO 27001 certification. So I want to move through this process ASAP. Unfortunately, due to budget constraints, I'm on my own.

How can I minimize the time required and get certified quickly, but also with quality?

Answer: The documents in your toolkit are placed in folders in the precise order and structure for your ISMS to be implemented, so to begin your implementation and avoid confusion you should follow this structure (e.g., first the procedure for document and record control, after that the procedure for identification of requirements, then the ISMS scope document, and so on...).

Regarding the number of documents, the "List of documents" file highlights the mandatory documents, so you should focus on them and keep the implementation of other templates at the minimum.

Included in your toolkit you have access to video tutorials that will show you how to fill out the documents.

Also included in your toolkit, you can schedule a meeting with one of our experts so he can help you orienting the best way to implement ISO 27001. To schedule a meeting, please access this link: https://advisera.com/27001academy/consultation/
