Your guide to getting ISO 27001:2022 ready

Overview

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 is the international standard for Information Security Management Systems (ISMS). Certification demonstrates a systematic approach to managing sensitive information through risk assessment and a set of Annex A security controls.

Who needs it?

Organizations seeking globally recognized certification — especially those operating across regions, bidding on regulated contracts, or maturing beyond ad-hoc security practices into a formal ISMS.

Key topics

  • ISMS scope and context (Clause 4)
  • Leadership and policy (Clause 5)
  • Risk assessment and treatment (Clause 6)
  • Annex A control set (2022 edition — 93 controls in 4 themes)
  • Internal audit and management review
  • Certification audit (Stage 1 and Stage 2)

Typical timeline

Most organizations require 6–12 months to implement an ISMS and pass certification, depending on starting maturity and scope.
