ISO 27001, the global standard for ISMS.
Information security management system certified by an accredited body. The expected baseline for European and global enterprise buyers.
The plain-English version.
ISO 27001:2022 is an international standard for ISMS, Information Security Management Systems. Achieving certification requires a risk-based framework, documented controls (Annex A), internal audit, and a stage-1/stage-2 external audit by an accredited certification body.
- Stage-1 readiness in 60 days
- Annex A control library
- Brazilian and international CBs
Three lanes, readiness, implementation, audit support.
Readiness
Gap assessment against ISO 27001. Concrete plan with owners, dates, and effort.
Implementation
Policies, controls, evidence pipelines built into Vanta. AI drafts, experts review.
Audit support
We sit beside you in audit interviews and respond to evidence requests.
From kickoff to certification.
Kickoff
Slack channel live. Scope, stakeholders, baseline.
Readiness
Gaps closed, policies signed, evidence flowing.
Audit prep
Mock audit, control narratives, auditor selection.
Audit
External audit closed. Letter or report in hand.
“The Trust Architects ran our ISO 27001 program end to end. We touched it for sign-off and stakeholder review. Everything else was on rails.”
ISO 27001 questions we hear weekly.
How long does ISO 27001 take?
Most customers complete a first audit in 60-90 days from kickoff. Larger programs run 4-6 months.
What does it cost?
Our retainer plus the external auditor's fee. We size it to your stage on the first call.
Do we need new tooling?
Vanta is our default. We can also work on Drata or Secureframe. No tooling change required if you're already on a platform.
Who runs the audit?
An independent ISO/IEC-qualified auditor. We have preferred firms in Brazil, the US, and Europe.
Will this stand up to enterprise scrutiny?
Yes. We design programs that pass not only the audit but also the buyer's security team review afterward.
From kickoff to audit, in four moves.
Stage 1 readiness
Kickoff, scope, baseline read.
Risk treatment plan
First artifacts shipped, evidence pipeline running.
Stage 1 audit

Stage 2 audit & certification
