What is ISO/IEC 27001:2022?
ISO/IEC 27001 is the world's leading standard for information security management systems (ISMS). It provides a systematic approach to managing sensitive information, ensuring confidentiality, integrity, and availability through a risk management process.
Key Focus Areas
What our engagement includes
CyberWave GRC provides ISO 27001 consulting and implementation support for organizations in the United States and India. We help you build an information security management system (ISMS) aligned with ISO/IEC 27001:2022, from gap analysis and risk assessment to the Statement of Applicability, internal audit and management review, so you are ready for Stage 1 and Stage 2 certification audits with an accredited certification body.
How the engagement works
Gap analysis
Assess current practices against ISO 27001:2022 requirements and Annex A controls.
Scope and risk
Define the ISMS scope, then identify and evaluate information security risks.
Implementation
Write documentation, implement selected controls and assign owners.
Operate and measure
Run the ISMS, collect records and track security objectives.
Internal audit
Perform an independent internal audit and management review, then close findings.
Certification
Support you through the Stage 1 and Stage 2 audits and any corrective actions.
Timeline and cost factors
ISO 27001 implementation commonly takes about 3 to 9 months before the certification audit. Cost depends on ISMS scope, number of employees and locations, existing security maturity, documentation already available and the level of hands-on support required. Certification body fees are separate.
ISO 27001 Consulting Services for US and Indian Organizations
Our ISO 27001 consulting covers the whole path from gap analysis to your certification audit. As your ISO 27001 consultant, we scope the ISMS, run the risk assessment, build the Statement of Applicability and the mandatory records, train your staff and prepare you for Stage 1 and Stage 2. Think of our ISO 27001 consulting services as hands-on help that fits your size and maturity, not a template you have to work out alone. We also offer ISO 27001 certification services up to the audit itself, and as an ISO 27001 certification consultancy we stay with you through any nonconformity response. The certificate is issued by an accredited certification body, not by us.
ISO 27001 Internal Audit Services
An internal audit is mandatory before certification, and it's where many first-time teams find out what the auditor will find. Our ISO 27001 internal audit services check your ISMS against clauses 4 to 10 and the Annex A controls you've selected, review your records and evidence, and give you a findings report. We then support management review and the closing of corrective actions, so you go into Stage 1 and Stage 2 with open issues already resolved, not discovered by the certification body.
ISO 27001 Certification in India
If you run a software, IT services or SaaS business in India and your clients ask for ISO 27001, the path is the same as anywhere: gap analysis, ISMS, internal audit, then Stage 1 and Stage 2 with an accredited certification body. For ISO 27001 certification in India, we work with your team on scope, risk assessment, documentation and audit readiness, and we can align the program with SOC 2 if your US customers ask for both. Implementation commonly takes about 3 to 9 months before the certification audit, and certification body fees are separate. See our ISO 27001 cost in India guide for a fee breakdown.
