ISO 27001 certification for businesses in Uganda & East Africa

ISO/IEC 27001 is the international standard for an Information Security Management System (ISMS). We take your organisation from first risk assessment to a certified ISMS — policies, controls, internal audits and certification-audit preparation, handled end to end so you can win security-conscious clients and tenders with confidence.

Who ISO 27001 is for

Software companies, fintechs, BPOs, telecoms, banks and any organisation that stores or processes sensitive customer data — especially those bidding for international or enterprise contracts that require an ISMS.

Why get certified

  • Win tenders and enterprise clients that mandate ISO 27001
  • Reduce the risk and cost of data breaches
  • Demonstrate due diligence to regulators and partners
  • Build a repeatable, auditable security programme

ISO 27001 — frequently asked questions

How long does ISO 27001 certification take?

For most small to mid-sized organisations, ISO 27001 takes roughly 4 to 8 months from gap analysis to the certification audit, depending on the size of your operation and how mature your existing controls are.

Is ISO 27001 the same as being 'compliant'?

ISO 27001 certification is issued by an accredited certification body after a formal audit. Our job is to build your ISMS and prepare you thoroughly so you meet every requirement before that audit.

Can ISO 27001 be combined with ISO 27701 or ISO 9001?

Yes. ISO 27701 extends ISO 27001 for privacy, and we frequently run an integrated management system that also covers ISO 9001. Doing them together reduces duplicated effort and cost.
