Yes, your security controls must be active and an Internal Audit completed before the official certification stages. We manage this pre-certification review so you pass with zero surprises.
Implementers design and build your security framework, while Auditors formally test it. Because our team holds both certified credentials, we build your system exactly how external auditors expect to see it.
We do the heavy lifting like drafting policies, but your team will need to attend scoping workshops and complete basic awareness training. We keep our process lightweight to minimize disruption to your daily operations.
Certification against ISO/IEC 27001 is issued by an accredited certification body, not by a consultancy. In Australia and New Zealand those bodies are accredited by JAS-ANZ, the Joint Accreditation System of Australia and New Zealand. Security Solution Consultants is an independent advisory firm: we build your information security management system, run the gap analysis and internal audit, and support you through the certification audit — but the certificate itself is awarded by your chosen certification body.
That distinction matters. Any consultancy claiming it can grant you ISO 27001 certification is misdescribing its role, and the result will not withstand scrutiny from a customer or regulator.
Most Australian clients come to ISO 27001 for one of three reasons: a government or enterprise customer has made certification a contract condition; they are consolidating obligations that already overlap, such as the Essential Eight, CIRMP for critical infrastructure, or APRA CPS 234; or they are entering markets where certification is the expected baseline. ISO 27001 works well as the umbrella management system because most of those obligations map onto Annex A controls you would be implementing anyway.
In New Zealand, ISO 27001 commonly sits alongside the Protective Security Requirements and, for agencies and their suppliers, the New Zealand Information Security Manual. Organisations supplying government are frequently asked to demonstrate a documented, auditable ISMS rather than an ad hoc set of controls. Certification evidences that once, instead of repeatedly across every procurement process.
For an organisation starting without a formal ISMS, a realistic timeline from kick-off to certification audit is six to twelve months, depending on scope, headcount and existing documentation. Stage 1 and Stage 2 audits are typically separated by several weeks, and the certification body needs evidence that the management system has been operating — not merely designed — before issuing a certificate.
No. Certification can only be issued by an accredited certification body, which in Australia and New Zealand means one accredited by JAS-ANZ. We provide the implementation, gap assessment, internal audit and audit support that get you ready for that assessment, and we stay independent of the certifying body.
Cost has two parts: the certification body’s audit fees, which scale with the size and complexity of your scope, and the internal or consulting effort to build and operate the ISMS. Scope is the biggest lever — certifying the business unit or product your customers actually ask about is usually far more economical than certifying the whole organisation.
They answer different questions. The Essential Eight is a set of technical mitigation strategies with maturity levels; ISO 27001 is a management system covering governance, risk assessment, supplier security, people and continual improvement. Organisations commonly implement the Essential Eight as technical controls inside an ISO 27001 management system rather than choosing between the two.
Yes. Certification runs on a three-year cycle with surveillance audits in the intervening years, so the management system has to keep operating and improving rather than being assembled once for an audit.
