ISO 27001 roadmap

ISO 27001 is more than a certification milestone; it is a structured, risk-based operating model for information security. CyberOps Pty Ltd helps organisations translate the standard into an actionable roadmap that improves real security posture, builds assurance for regulators and customers, and prepares teams for an efficient audit.

ISO 27001 Roadmap, Delivered by CyberOps

We begin with a focused gap analysis against ISO/IEC 27001:2022 to identify legal and regulatory obligations, clarify scope, and highlight control maturity gaps. From there, we uplift governance and documentation by developing the Information Security Management System (ISMS) policies, the Statement of Applicability, and clear roles, responsibilities, and supporting procedures (such as access control and incident management). We then implement and test selected Annex A controls across technical and operational domains, including backup, monitoring, logging, secure configuration, and asset management. The roadmap culminates in a management review, internal audit, and certification readiness phase where nonconformities are resolved, evidence is consolidated, and we support the Stage 1 and Stage 2 external audits to achieve certification.

CyberOps can Automate Your Compliance

To accelerate compliance while maintaining control integrity, we can integrate both Vanta and/or Drata where they best fit your operating model. These platforms automate evidence collection, continuous monitoring, control testing, and audit-ready reporting across cloud services, identity providers, and endpoint tooling. CyberOps configures the tooling, maps controls to your environment, validates the findings, and ensures the automation supports, not replaces, your ISMS governance.
