What is ISO 27001?

ISO 27001 is the international standard for information security management systems (ISMS). It shows buyers you manage risks to the data you hold in a structured, audited way.

DTAC does not mandate ISO 27001, but it asks for strong technical security evidence. We align your ISMS with DTAC, the Data Security and Protection Toolkit and Cyber Essentials so the evidence works everywhere.

What we deliver

  • Gap analysis against ISO 27001 with a clear plan
  • Scope, information security policy and ISMS build
  • Information security risk assessment and treatment
  • Statement of Applicability and supporting controls
  • Alignment with DTAC, DSPT and Cyber Essentials
  • Internal audit and certification readiness

Frequently asked questions

Not always, but many NHS buyers request it or equivalent evidence. It strongly supports your DTAC and DSPT answers.

How does ISO 27001 relate to DTAC?

DTAC asks for technical security evidence. An ISO 27001 ISMS gives you a structured way to provide it.

Can you work with our existing security team?
