ISO 27001: From ambition to certification

Whether you’re just starting your ISO 27001 journey or working towards certification, this interactive workshop will provide the clarity, confidence, and practical guidance needed to succeed.

Many organisations struggle to navigate the complexity of ISO 27001, often becoming overwhelmed by the volume of requirements, unsure where to begin, or investing effort in the wrong areas. In this 120 -minute session, information security expert Andy Compton, CEO of Cortida Limited, will share practical insights, proven approaches, and real-world experience to help organisations successfully implement and maintain an ISO 27001:2022-aligned Information Security Management System (ISMS).

Attendees will gain a clear understanding of the standard, learn how to avoid common pitfalls that derail projects, and discover what successful implementation programmes have in common. The workshop will also explore when certification makes sense, how to prepare for external audits, and what it takes to maintain compliance and continual improvement over time.

Whether your goal is certification, alignment with best practice, or strengthening your organisation’s security posture, this session will equip you with actionable guidance and a practical roadmap for success.
