How much should you budget for ISO 27001 certification? 🤷♀️ When budgeting for an ISO 27001 project, it’s important to take certification costs into account as well as the actual cost of implementing the Standard. The cost of ISO 27001 certification can vary depending on a number of factors, such as the size and complexity of your organisation, the number of locations, and the number of employees. Having prepared hundreds of organisations for ISO 27001 certification over the past 15 years, IT Governance suggests budgeting the amounts on the below link to cover the cost of the initial certification audit. There will be further audit costs throughout the three-year certification period. The actual fee charged will depend on the certification body you appoint and the risk it associates with your ISMS (information security management system), but you can use our table as a guide here: https://ow.ly/bqnv50TmTik #ISO27001 #informationsecurity #cybersecurity #certificationcosts
