In general

A risk-based approach to information security

At the heart of an ISO 27001 ISMS is a business-driven risk assessment, so you identify and treat threats according to your organization’s risk appetite. Certification shows you have assessed the implications and put systemized controls in place.

Beyond reliability and customer confidence, ISO 27001 provides a strong framework for data-protection laws such as GDPR, builds security awareness across your people and reduces the long-term cost of incidents and recovery.

The 2022 edition

93 Annex A controls across four themes

  • Organizational controls
  • People controls
  • Physical controls
  • Technological controls

We build a Statement of Applicability that justifies every included and excluded control.

FAQ

ISO 27001 frequently asked questions

01How long does ISO 27001 certification take?

Most organizations complete ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification in 30–90 days with Lisora's fast-track approach. The exact timeline depends on your size, number of sites, process complexity and how much of the system already exists.

02How long is an ISO 27001 certificate valid?

An accredited ISO 27001 certificate is valid for three years, with annual surveillance audits to confirm the management system is maintained and improving. A recertification audit is carried out before the third anniversary.

03Is ISO 27001 the same as SOC 2?

No. ISO 27001 is an internationally certifiable management-system standard; SOC 2 is a US attestation report. They overlap heavily, and an ISO 27001 ISMS makes SOC 2 considerably easier.
