ISO 27001 advisory & independent audit

ISO 27001 consultancy and independent internal audit.

Build a working information security management system, understand your readiness for certification, or get an independent assessment of how your controls operate.

An introductory conversation to clarify your objectives and next step.

Consultation reviewing a demonstration GRC evidence workspace beside an Information Security Policy and ISMS Risk Register

A policy in a folder is not a working control.

To be audit-ready, your team needs clear ownership, controls that operate in practice and records that show what happened. We help build that system—or independently test the evidence when it is time for an internal audit.

Common questions

Before we begin.

Short answers to the questions that matter when you are choosing support.

Do we need implementation, a readiness assessment or an internal audit?

Implementation helps establish an ISMS. A gap and readiness assessment clarifies what is missing or unproven. An internal audit independently tests an operating system against agreed criteria. We can help you choose the right starting point on a brief scope call.

Can Mang Morgan implement our ISMS and then audit it?

Not where we would be auditing our own work. Before acceptance, we check previous involvement and conflicts, record safeguards and assign an independent auditor or another provider where needed. If objectivity cannot be protected, we decline the independent audit. See our conflict checks and safeguards.

What will our team need to provide?

Start with your intended scope, target date and what is already in place. During delivery, you will need a sponsor and ISMS owner, access to process owners and a restricted way to share relevant evidence. We agree the commitment by phase.

How long will the work take and how is the fee set?

Both depend on scope, evidence readiness, interviews, testing depth and team availability. We estimate the work by phase and role, then show assumptions and payment terms in the proposal. See the pricing approach.

Can you work in Vanta, Drata or our GRC platform?

Yes, where your team authorises appropriate access. A platform can organise evidence, but its status indicators are not audit conclusions and do not automatically reduce the fee.

Will the work get us ISO 27001 certified?

No provider can guarantee certification. We support implementation and readiness or deliver an appropriately independent internal audit. Your chosen certification body makes the certification decision.
