Achieve & Maintain ISO 27001
with Unmatched Ease
Your dedicated team takes care of your entire ISO 27001 process from start to finish with uncompromising quality and speed.
Certification Process Details
Planning
ISO 27001 certification focuses on your Information Security Management System (ISMS). Start by defining the scope—determine which parts of your organization, systems, and processes will be covered by the ISMS and included in the certification. Agency works with hundreds of clients to define audit scopes tailored to the needs of their specific clients.
Audit Preparation
Based on your risk assessment, implement the necessary security controls outlined in the ISO 27001 standard. These controls address areas such as access management, physical security, incident response, and data protection. Agency handles all of the implementation for you, from configuring logging to managing employee compliance and creating documentation.
Internal Audit
Before the formal certification audit, Agency will conduct the mandatory internal audit to ensure your Information Security Management System meets ISO 27001 requirements. Your external auditor will require this to be complete, and any gaps remediated, before beginning a formal certification audit.
The Audit
Engage an accredited certification body to perform the external audit. The audit occurs in two stages: Stage 1 reviews your ISMS documentation and policies, while Stage 2 evaluates the implementation and effectiveness of your controls in practice.
Achieve Certification and Maintain Compliance
After a successful audit, you’ll receive your ISO 27001 certification. In your initial assessment, you define what your organization will do, and then you need to do those things with no exceptions. Maintaining certification requires regular surveillance audits, continuous improvement of your ISMS, and ongoing alignment with ISO 27001 standards. Agency manages this process for you, ensuring that future audits are as smooth as your first.

Case Studies and Success Stories
Discover how we helped companies across different industries achieve ISO 27001 compliance:

Gorgias
We partnered with Gorgias, a leading multi-national SaaS company, to optimize and streamline its compliance program. By deploying dedicated engineering and compliance resources, we facilitated direct collaboration with Gorgias’ engineering and sales teams, ensuring more effective communication and faster execution.

Pylon
Pylon partnered with Agency to grow its compliance posture from two frameworks to four and delegate security tasks to experts in order to save critical team member time. When Pylon engaged Agency, cybersecurity and compliance were directly managed by one of the founders, who was looking to better focus his time and bandwidth on growth. Agency took responsibility for project management, implementation, and audit readiness, freeing up Pylon’s founding team to focus on growth while improving compliance quality.

Coalesce
Coalesce is a B2B software platform that enhances enterprise data on Snowflake accounts. While already SOC2 compliant, the company aimed to strengthen its security posture by achieving ISO 27001, HIPAA, and GDPR certifications. However, limited cyber-specific resources meant that valuable engineering time was being diverted to compliance tasks. Coalesce deployed a dedicated Agency team to take responsibility for compliance, allowing Coalesce's engineering team to focus on product development. This resulted in over $100,000 in annual savings, an expansion from one to four compliance frameworks, and HIPAA compliance in under 30 days.

Cloudcover
CloudCover was looking to improve its security posture by meeting the ISO27001:2022 standard. However, limited cyber-specific resources meant that valuable engineering time was being diverted to compliance tasks. CloudCover deployed a dedicated Agency team to take responsibility for compliance, beginning with ISO27001 and later expanding to include SOC2 Type II and GDPR compliance.
