Case Study: ISO 27001 for Leading Financial Services
Executive Summary

- Day 51-70 (Internal Audit & Mock Assessment): Rigorous pre-assessment conducted by certified Lead Auditors to remediate edge-case discrepancies.
- Day 71-90 (Stage 1 & Stage 2 Audit Support): Direct facilitation with accredited registrar.
