ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Update Certification:
A Comprehensive Guide

Certification Process

The certification process involves the following steps:

1. Develop an ISMS that includes policies, procedures, people and technology.
2. Perform an internal review to identify nonconformities and corrective actions.
3. Invite auditors to perform a basic review of the ISMS.
4. Correct the issues which the auditors find.
5. Have an accredited certification body perform an in-depth audit of the ISO/ IEC 27001:2022 components to check whether you followed the policies and procedures.

Certification can take three to six months. To improve the cost-effectiveness of the certification process, many organizations perform a preliminary gap analysis against the standard to get an idea of the effort required to implement any necessary changes.

Cost of Certification

The cost of certification depends on many variables, so every organization will have a different budget. The main costs relate to training and literature, external assistance, technologies to be updated or implemented, employee time and effort, and the certification audit itself.

Duration of Certification

Once you earn certification, you should perform regular internal audits. The certification body re-audits at least annually, and will check the following:

• Closure of all nonconformities from the last visit
• ISMS operation
• Documentation updates
• Risk management reviews
• Corrective actions
• Monitoring and measuring of ISMS performance
