Compliance Readiness and Technical Evidence

We assess your current state against applicable requirements. We provide technical evidence that controls are not only defined but operational.

What it is

Compliance readiness begins with a gap analysis against a set of requirements. Each requirement is mapped to the control that meets it and its evidence. Evidence may include a configuration export, log record or test result. This demonstrates in the audit that a stated control is actually functioning.

Scope

  • Identifying applicable legal, regulatory and contractual requirements
  • Current state and gap analysis
  • Requirement, control and evidence mapping table
  • Configuration reviews and tests demonstrating controls are effective
  • Pre-audit review and tracking of finding closure

The need

When organizations need it

  • When a regulatory audit of your security controls is approaching.
  • When an ISO/IEC 27001 certification or surveillance audit is approaching.
  • When a major customer or partner requests evidence of your controls before contract signing.

Method

How we work

  1. Scope

    We identify applicable requirements and the audit timeline.

  2. Gap analysis

    We compare each requirement with existing controls and prioritize the gaps.

  3. Evidence

    We document that controls are effective through configuration reviews and tests.

  4. Pre-audit review

    Before the audit, we review the evidence file from an auditor's perspective.

Outcome

What you have at the end

You receive a file showing which control meets each requirement, with its evidence. Where one control fulfills multiple obligations, this is also visible.

Frequently asked questions

Do you issue the certification?

No. Certification decisions are made by an independent certification body. We provide the preparation and technical evidence.

Do you determine which obligations apply to us?

We identify the technical requirements. For scope issues requiring legal interpretation, we work with your legal counsel.

Can the same evidence be used for more than one audit?

The mapping table shows which requirements each control meets. This allows the same evidence to support preparation for both ISO/IEC 27001 and regulatory audits.
