ISO 27001 Consultancy for a Secure, Certified ISMS
ISO 27001 is the international standard for an information security management system. It takes a risk-based approach to protecting the confidentiality, integrity and availability of your information, and is the one information security standard an organisation can certify to. The current edition is ISO 27001:2022.
As independent ISO 27001 consultants, we help you get certification-ready faster, from the first gap assessment and risk treatment through the Statement of Applicability, Annex A controls, documentation, internal audit and certification. We do not issue the certificate ourselves, so our advice stays genuinely in your interest. We work remote, on-site or blended.
Technical
Built on the ISO High Level Structure
Like every modern ISO management system standard, ISO 27001 is built on a common framework, once called the High Level Structure (HLS) and now the Harmonized Structure, defined in ISO's Annex SL. Clauses 4 to 10 carry the requirements, and Annex A adds the information security controls on top.
Because ISO 27001 shares this structure with ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001, it integrates cleanly into an integrated management system (IMS).
The Current Edition
ISO 27001:2022 and Its Controls
ISO 27001:2022 is the current edition. The transition from ISO 27001:2013 closed on 31 October 2025, so every valid certificate is now to the 2022 edition. We implement, audit and maintain to 2022, including the 2024 climate change amendment to the context clauses.
Annex A was restructured. The 2022 edition groups its 93 controls into four clear themes, down from 114 controls in 2013, and adds 11 new controls covering areas such as threat intelligence, cloud security, data leakage prevention and secure coding. Still on 2013? We upgrade you to 2022 as part of our managed maintenance service.

FAQ
ISO 27001 Consultancy, Your Questions Answered
What is ISO 27001?
ISO 27001 is the international standard for an information security management system. It sets a risk-based framework to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information, and is the one information security standard an organisation can be certified to. The current edition is ISO 27001:2022.
Is ISO 27001 certification mandatory?
No. Certification is not a legal requirement, though it is increasingly asked for by clients and in tenders. You can also benefit from implementing the standard without certifying. Consultivo facilitates certification but does not issue the certificate.
What changed in ISO 27001:2022?
Annex A was restructured into four themes with 93 controls, down from 114, with 11 new controls covering areas like threat intelligence, cloud security and data leakage prevention. A 2024 amendment added climate change to the context clauses. The transition from 2013 closed on 31 October 2025.
Can you integrate ISO 27001 with our other standards?

FAQ
ISO Consultancy, Your Questions Answered
Is ISO certification mandatory?
No. Certification to ISO management system standards is not a legal requirement, and you can benefit from implementing a standard without certifying to it. Certification does, however, build trust and confidence with your customers and other stakeholders.
Does Consultivo issue ISO certificates?
No. Consultivo is an independent ISO consultancy and does not issue certificates. We facilitate the certification process on your behalf while staying independent of the certification body's decision, so our advice stays genuinely in your interest.
Which ISO standards do you cover?
Most commonly ISO 9001 (quality), ISO 14001 (environment) and ISO 45001 (occupational health and safety), along with ISO 27001 (information security), ISO 50001 (energy), ISO 31000 (risk), SA8000 (social accountability) and a full integrated management system combining any of them.
Can you support us remotely?
Yes. We deliver fully remote support through digital tools, fully on-site support in person, and blended support combining both. The mode is chosen to suit your sites, timeline and team.
What does ISO certification consulting include?
Understanding your context, gap and risk assessment, policies and documentation, awareness training, internal audit support, corrective action, management review and facilitation through your external certification audit.
How long does implementation take?
Typically a few months, depending on the scope, the number of sites and your readiness. We agree a clear timeline with you before we begin, and can run parallel workstreams where speed matters.
What happens after certification?
Certification is the beginning, not the end. Our managed maintenance service keeps your system live across the full three year cycle, through surveillance and recertification audits.
Can you integrate several standards into one system?
Yes. Where you run two or more standards, an integrated management system (IMS) brings them into one lean, certifiable whole and typically saves 20 to 40 percent of resources.
