ISO 27001 is an international standard created by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that outlines the process and policies needed to implement an Information Security Management System (ISMS) successfully.
This standard helps organizations establish and implement data security protocols to manage cyber security risks and comply with relevant laws.
An ISMS is a system that details the requirements for secure data and information management. It can help organizations secure confidential information such as intellectual property (IP) and third-party data, increasing brand confidence with stakeholders and clients and safely exchanging data with other organizations.
ISO 27001 provides organizations with the structure and protocols needed to reduce the risk of data breaches and cyber security attacks, such as malware and ransomware. Further details are provided below.
As all organizations that collect, process and store data, are all at risk of cyber attacks – ISO 27001 is suited for all organization types and sizes in any industry or sector.
Orion Registrar is accredited for ISO 27001 by the ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB).
To maintain continuous operation and successfully manage your IT security infrastructure, securely processing and storing data is key.
Organizations handle all types of data and information – from employee details to social security data – and being able to securely store, process and transfer it correctly can positively impact your business practices.
A robust Information Security Management System can help monitor and control data risks, building client trust and opening the door.
By law, organizations of all types and sizes must adequately secure and protect their data and comply with State and Federal laws and regulations.
Implementing an ISMS builds a culture of IT security and embeds security management across teams and teams, supporting efforts to comply with data protection laws.

Our team will get in touch to outline the process and explain the plan for your initial assessment. We can also signpost you to any resources that you might find useful on your journey to becoming certified.
Referred to as a “Stage one assessment”, our auditor will conduct an initial review of your management system to determine if the core requirements of the standard are being met. We will provide a detailed report outlining the areas you need to focus on in order to comply with the requirements.
When you are ready, an auditor will conduct a “Stage two assessment” to establish if your organisation meets the requirements of the standard. We review any actions taken to address findings raised at Stage one and our auditor will make a recommendation as to whether certification can be issued, based on the audit outcomes.
Please note: It is typical for gaps to be identified during the audit, which will need to be addressed through corrective actions before certification can be approved.
Following a review by our Compliance Team, a decision will be made as to whether your certification can be issued.

A data breach occurs when an outside party can access the data you’ve collected, processed, and stored. This can happen when data and information are stolen by hackers or by accidentally leaving a device that contains data in a public space.
Data breaches can have a number of consequences, both short and long-term. These can include financial penalties, litigation, reputational damage, loss of work and clients, and disruption of regular business.
Some of these consequences may even lead to your organization shutting down entirely.
