Practical ISO 27001 consulting from A1 Digital

Today, an ISO/IEC 27001 certificate is a decisive factor in establishing business relationships across many industries. At the same time, complex requirements and limited resources make the certification path challenging. Our ISO 27001 consultants support you at critical junctures and guide you from the initial assessment through to successful certification and beyond. We identify risks, develop a clear roadmap, and translate the standard’s requirements into concrete measures for your organization. This results in an audit-ready ISMS tailored to your company.

Growing cyber threats

Cyberattacks are becoming more frequent, more targeted, and more sophisticated. However, many companies lack a structured foundation for systematically identifying and managing risks. With ISO 27001, you can establish a framework for strong information security.

Increasing compliance requirements

EU regulations such as NIS2 and DORA require verifiable information security measures. ISO 27001 is the internationally recognized framework for meeting the requirements of such regulations in a structured and efficient manner.

Growing market pressure

More and more customers and clients are increasingly demanding proof of secure handling of sensitive information. An ISO 27001 certificate demonstrates that your company takes the security of data, IT systems, and supply chains seriously.

The ISO 27001 consulting process at A1 Digital: Your path to certification

Step 1: Gap analysis & scoping

We assess the current state of your information security and define the scope of your ISMS. The result is a documented assessment of the current state and a prioritized action plan.

Step 2: ISMS implementation & action planning

We define security objectives, establish a risk management framework, and develop the necessary policies based on Annex A of ISO 27001. In doing so, we seamlessly integrate existing requirements from NIS2, DORA, and the GDPR.

Step 3: Technical implementation

We implement security measures both conceptually and, upon request, technically. Vulnerability assessments, penetration tests, and our Security Operations Center are directly integrated into the ISMS framework.

Step 4: Employee awareness

An ISMS only works if it is integrated into the company's daily operations. That is why we provide training tailored to the specific needs of management, information security officers, and employees.

Step 5: Internal audit & management review

We assess the effectiveness of all implemented measures and provide you with targeted preparation for Stage 1 and Stage 2 of the certification audit.

Step 6: Mock audit & certification support

In a mock audit, we simulate the certification process under real-world conditions. We then guide you through the external audit and prepare you for the 3-year cycle with annual surveillance audits.

Frequently asked questions about ISO 27001 consulting

What is ISO 27001, and who does the standard apply to?

ISO/IEC 27001 is the internationally recognized standard for information security management. It defines the requirements for an information security management system (ISMS). This structured framework of guidelines, processes, and measures helps organizations systematically protect information. The standard applies across all industries to organizations of all sizes. Certification to ISO 27001 is voluntary; however, in many industries it is increasingly required or expected by customers and partners.

How long does ISO 27001 certification take?

Depending on the size of the company and its current situation, an ISO 27001 certification consultancy can take between 6 and 18 months. The key factor is the extent to which the company’s existing security structures already meet the standard’s requirements. The defined scope also influences the duration. The more locations, systems, and processes the ISMS is intended to cover, the more extensive the project becomes. With professional ISO 27001 consulting, companies can avoid detours on the certification path.

How much does ISO 27001 consulting and certification cost?

Costs cannot be calculated on a flat-rate basis; rather, they depend on various factors such as company size, the scope of the ISMS, the initial situation, and the chosen consulting model. In the long term, investing in ISO 27001 consultancy services is an investment that pays off. For example, the certification strengthens partners’ trust and can lower insurance premiums for cyber risks.

How are ISO 27001, NIS2, and DORA related?

ISO 27001 is not a legal requirement. However, organizations that implement an ISMS in accordance with ISO 27001 create a strong foundation for meeting legal requirements such as NIS2 or DORA and save time and resources. This is because many of the measures apply to all three sets of regulations at the same time.
