Where are you in the ISO 27001 Certification Process?

Decision Made, Process Not Yet Started

You have decided to implement the ISMS. Now you want to understand the steps you need to take.

At This Stage

You have identified the key players you want on your ISMS team. You have established certain key elements, but not your scope. You have not yet decided on your implementation schedule or selected your registrar.

Get Your Team Ready

To take advantage of everything our comprehensive approach offers, we recommend your team complete all four Tracks of our curriculum. This is the best way to ensure they learn every step required to implement all the core aspects of the ISMS and to achieve ISO 27001 certification.

Just Starting Out

You have begun the process, but you want to make sure you are on the right path.

At This Stage

  1. Your team has a good understanding of ISO 27001:2013 requirements;
  2. You have defined and approved your ISMS scope;
  3. Your business process owners have a good understanding of the ISMS requirements.

Get Your Team Ready

We recommend that your team complete Tracks 2, 3 and 4 of our curriculum. Our process approach driven methodology will give team members the necessary coverage of all requirements. They will be trained to work with a comprehensive risk assessment and treatment methodology that is fully aligned with the standard requirements (Track 3). Our hands-on review of the Certification process is covered in Track 4, during which your team works in collaboration with our experts to ensure that all the requirements of the standard are attended to in preparation for the certification audit.

Well On The Way

You have already implemented the core ISMS functions and put the majority of Annex controls in place. You want to complete the final steps before going into certification mode.

At This Stage

You have built a functional security management system that covers ISO 27001:2013 clauses and takes your SoA controls into account. You have aligned the scope of your ISMS with your business objectives. Your key stakeholders are on-board with the implementation. You have not adopted a risk management methodology for the ISMS.

Get Your Team Ready

We recommend that your team complete Tracks 3 and 4 of our curriculum to ensure your ISMS meets risk assessment requirements. By completing Track 4, your team will ensure full alignment with the requirements of the standard. Team members will also collaborate with our experts while preparing the certification audit. Track 4 is a mentored, hands-on course.

Ready For Certification

You have completed the ISMS implementation. Now you just need to make sure you get through the certification assessment.

At This Stage

You already have a functional ISMS. You have scheduled the Stage 1 audits with the registrar, and:

  1. You have completed the risk assessment according to the established methodology.
  2. You have identified risks and created treatment plans according to the established risk acceptance criteria.

Get Your Team Ready

We recommend that your team complete Track 4 of our curriculum to ensure full alignment with the requirements of the standard and go through the practical steps of preparing the certification audit under the mentorship of our experts.

Why Work With The Seratos Team of Experts

Our clients across the United States and Canada have successfully implemented and maintained our ISMS model. Over the past five years, our experts have completed more than a hundred implementations and certifications. We have poured every bit of their accumulated knowledge and experience into preparing our curriculum.We approach information security through systems management, a practice that has been established for over a decade.

Our workshops are comprehensive, fast-track, and hands-on. They provide you with a reliable framework that can measure your management systems against predetermined standards and controls. They are the best way to establish solid security controls and policies that consistently meet conformance requirements.

We help you build

Effective Information Security Teams

Contrary to other organizations providing similar services, we designed our workshops to train your implementation team as a whole rather than individual staff members. Although we encourage participants to take other courses on some topics covered in our customized training, experience has shown us that it is critical that the implementation team works toward certification together. Consequently, we recommend that you assign at least three employees to your implementation team and that they take the workshop as a group.

Our Virtual Classrooms Are Convenient, Effective And Private

We train your staff using our secure state-of-the-art online learning platform.
Conducting live sessions online means we can help you whether you are located in the Americas or in Europe. Teaching via the Internet also allows our instructors to interact in real-time with the team.
Because we do not use pre-recorded material, our instructors can quickly and easily share their expertise. They make sure implementation team members immediately come away with information they can act upon. Moreover, these interactive sessions present real-life scenarios tailored to your specific industry, audience and internal processes.
Finally, your workshop is not attended by students outside your organization. Only your staff takes part. Accordingly, this allows us to focus on your specific challenges and provide solutions applicable to your particular environment.

Our Seasoned Pros Are At the Helm

A team of knowledgeable consultants and certification auditors run our training sessions. They all have extensive hands-on experience in implementation activities and in certification. You can count on them to walk your team smoothly through the process.

How Does It Work?

Client Focus.

Our Workshops Are Completely Customized

First, we schedule a preparatory meeting to familiarize ourselves with your business objectives and environment.Second, we design the workshop around your reality.Third, we teach your people the best practices that are specifically relevant to your organization.In other words, we take into account the impact implementing the ISO 27001:2013 standard can have on your operations. For instance, we identify your internal stakeholders and tailor the delivery of the workshop to your industry, scope and available resources. Content, methods and timelines are aligned with core delivery objectives.

Everything we do and teach is consistent with ISO 27001:2013 requirements. This means we place a greater emphasis on security objectives, performance monitoring and the use of metrics rooted in a well-defined business context.
At the end of the course, your staff understands our systematic and iterative methodology. As a result, they can apply it to set up information security systems. Since they learn how to leverage effective, reality-based key performance indicators and security controls, they are able to design completely customized systems that conform to ISO standards.

Comprehensive, Customized Workshops

Our implementation workshops are structured around numbered learning tracks (Track 1, Track 2, Track 3 and Track 4). Each one corresponds to a degree of preparedness with regard to your ability to meet ISO27001 standards. The levels, or stages, are determined according to how far you have come in the process of implementing the main roles and responsibilities defined in the ISMS.
Each Track is comprised of a certain number of sessions that cover specific topics. We include preparatory, training, and follow-up sessions to make sure our experts transfer the necessary knowledge to your team.

Delivery and Content of Sessions

All sessions last three hours and are given live, online by our instructors. We schedule them together according to your time zone and the availability of your implementation team members.
The implementation and certification of ISO 27001 is an interactive process. We adapt the level of our services and the content of the sessions to your team’s current knowledge and to the stage you have reached in the process. We guide you to the learning track that is right for you and that will guarantee the successful implementation and certification of your ISMS.
