You can define the scope in terms of only part of the organization (i.e., IT department), but in general, for small and mid-sized businesses, the best approach is to include the entire organization in the ISMS scope, because the effort to separate the scope for such organizations may not be worthy.

Regarding implementation time, it may take a couple of months for smaller companies and up to more than a year for larger organizations. You can use these values as an initial reference:

  • Companies of up to 20 employees – up to 3 months
  • 20 to 50 employees – 3 to 5 months
  • 50 to 200 employees – 5 to 8 months
  • More than 200 employees – 8 to 20 months
