Our Advisory Process

The ISO 27017 Process

Receiving the ISO 27017 statement of compliance is one of the most difficult processes to obtain due to its strict and detailed requirements. It requires an extensive audit, testing and assessment of existing information systems as well as new implementations to ensure that they are able to withstand multiple attack scenarios. No matter where you are in your ISO 27017 process, 38North can make certification easier. ‌Talk with one of our ISO 27017 experts.

Self-Evaluation & Application

Organizations seeking International ISO 27017 certification need to develop a Statement of Applicability which details the controls mitigated after conducting a risk assessment and controls that were excluded. The application should include the organization’s current information security management system, with details of all associated processes and procedures. Furthermore, organizations must provide evidence of their compliance with applicable laws and regulations related to cloud services and data privacy. Additionally, the International ISO 27017 certification application must include a risk assessment of all cloud services and relevant data processing operations.

Audit

The applicants will conduct an internal audit against ISO requirements. This is followed by an independent evaluation conducted by an accredited ISO auditor, evaluating the organization’s documents, business processes, and security controls, and assessing their compliance with International Standards Organization requirements.

Auditor Review

The ISO auditor reviews their findings to determine whether or not ISO 27017 certification can be awarded.

Certification

ISO 27017 certification is granted upon successful completion of all the previous steps.

ISO 27017 Certification Cybersecurity Challenges

Companies must also implement comprehensive policies and procedures to ensure their systems remain secure over time. To pass ISO 27017 certification, companies must demonstrate an exceptionally high level of security protocols that are enforced by regularly conducting ongoing monitoring activities.

Scoping

Contractors must have a detailed understanding of their business and risk posture to properly scope their cybersecurity practices to meet the requirements of the ISO 27017 certification process. An incomplete Scope Statement can result in a failure to be certified.

Expertise

Many in-house teams are challenged to understand the complex security standards and frameworks. Along with extensive knowledge needed of how ISO’s requirements are applied. 38North can help advise with a long history of expert security services, including ISO 27017.

Continuous Maturity

In order to maintain certification, applicants must ensure all their practices are consistently compliant to current and updated standards. ISO 27017 certifications must be renewed every three years in order to remain valid.
