ISO Gap Analysis FAQ
What is the difference between an ISO Gap Analysis and a Certification Audit?
A Gap Analysis is an advisory review conducted before your official audit to identify missing controls and fix non-conformities. A Certification Audit is conducted by an accredited external body (like BSI or NQA) to issue the formal certificate.
How long does an ISO 27001 Gap Analysis take?
Most gap analyses take between 1 to 3 weeks depending on company size, scope complexity, and existing documentation maturity.
Will World Computing help write our ISO policies and risk registers?
Yes. In addition to pinpointing gaps, we provide tailored policy templates, risk register frameworks, and hands-on remediation support.
