Your questions
A practical starting point.
How does the workspace reduce reliance on consultancy?
The prepared implementation plan, policy library, process tools and supporting guidance give your internal team a structured foundation. You can progress with your own resources and choose additional professional support for specialist needs.
Are the policies ready for our organisation to adopt?
They are pre-written drafts to tailor to your organisation's scope, activities and risks. Your organisation reviews, approves and operates its own controlled versions.
What support is included?
Technical support for the workspace is included. Additional ISO 27001 consultancy, implementation assistance, internal auditing and ongoing ISMS services can be agreed separately.
Can we use existing documents and risk records?
Yes. You can work with revised documents and import risks using the supported spreadsheet format. A demonstration can show the workflow and help you plan the migration.
Does the software guarantee ISO 27001 certification?
The workspace supports implementation and ongoing management. Your organisation must implement and operate its ISMS; an independent certification body assesses conformity.

What is the ISMS Workspace?
The ISMS Workspace is an online platform for implementing and managing your organisation's information security management system. It brings your ISO 27001 plan, policies, controls, risks and audit evidence together, so your team can see what needs doing, who owns it, and how work is progressing.
A practical head start
Instead of starting with a blank page, you begin with a detailed implementation plan, pre-written policies and practical guidance. That gives your team a head start, helping you implement faster and reducing reliance on extensive external consultancy.
A plan your team can follow
Turn the implementation plan into a working roadmap. Agree priorities, assign owners, and set timelines and dependencies. The visual timeline helps you coordinate the work, spot delays and keep implementation moving.
Policies ready to tailor
More than forty pre-written policies and procedures, including your ISMS Manual, provide the foundation. Tailor them to your organisation, then manage versions, reviews and approvals through the document index. Your team works from a controlled set of current documents.
Connect controls to evidence
The built-in Statement of Applicability supports assessment of the management-system clauses and all ninety-three Annex A controls. Decide what applies, record the evidence, and identify the gaps. Clear ownership and linked actions help turn that assessment into progress.
Run the processes together
The workspace brings the logs and registers that support your management system together. Coordinate risks, incidents, suppliers, changes and business continuity, with owners, actions and review dates recorded in the right place.
Stay in control as things change
Built-in configuration management helps you track documents, revisions and approvals. Maintain hardware, software and personal-device registers, and connect those operational records with your security processes. Software criticality also supports business continuity planning.
Make audit preparation easier
When an audit comes around, your records, decisions and supporting evidence are easier to find. Plan internal audits, provide controlled auditor access, and follow findings through to corrective action. The history shows how your management system operates in practice.
Guidance where you need it
Your team can access thirty-nine supporting video guides from the training library and from relevant workspace areas. The downloadable workbook includes the full transcripts, giving people a practical manual to use as they work.
Beyond implementation
After implementation, use the ongoing management plan to schedule reviews, track objectives and coordinate governance meetings. Keep actions and continual improvements moving, so the system stays useful as your organisation changes.
Competitive pricing. Support included.
The ISMS Workspace is competitively priced, with technical support included. Additional professional services and specialist ISO 27001 support are available when you need them. Your team stays in control of how much assistance it uses.
