ISO/IEC 27001 — Information Security Management
Is your organisation looking to start the path to ISO/IEC 27001 information security management compliance? Developing the required ISMS processes and procedures internally can be challenging. Global Management Consulting provides the consulting expertise to build, implement and train your organisation for ISO 27001 certification — and to align it with GDPR and NIS2 obligations so a single effort serves several goals.
An Information Security Management System (ISMS) is the framework of policies and procedures — including all technical controls — involved in a company’s information risk management. Securing information has become vital to ensuring the trust and protection of confidential stakeholder and customer data. GMC has the expertise to evaluate and guide your organisation to compliance: identifying risks and putting controls in place to manage or eliminate them.
ISO 27001 is built around a risk-based approach and a catalogue of controls. We help you scope the ISMS sensibly, run a proper risk assessment, select and implement the right controls, and produce the evidence a certification auditor will expect — without drowning your team in unnecessary paperwork.

Questions, answered
How long does ISO 27001 certification take?+
Typically three to nine months depending on the size and complexity of your organisation and the maturity of your existing controls. We provide a firm timeline after an initial gap analysis.
Does ISO 27001 help with GDPR and NIS2?+
Significantly. A well-built ISMS covers much of what GDPR and NIS2 require for security of processing and risk management, so certification gives you a strong, auditable foundation for both.
What is the difference between the 2013 and 2022 versions?+
ISO/IEC 27001:2022 reorganises and updates the Annex A controls. We advise on the current requirements and, for organisations already certified, manage the transition so your ISMS stays current.
