ISO 27701:2025 PIMS
Privacy controls layered onto an existing ISMS without duplicating owners or evidence.
What This Involves
Scope & boundary definition
Establishing exactly what's in and out of scope before any control work starts — the single most common source of audit surprises.
Gap and risk assessment
Mapping current state against the framework's requirements, prioritised by actual business risk, not a generic checklist.
Control design and documentation
Policies and procedures written to match how the organisation actually operates.
Evidence and internal audit
Building the evidence trail an external auditor or customer security team will actually test.
Who This Matters For
Organisations under real pressure to demonstrate this framework — a customer contract requiring it, a certification deadline, or a board that wants independent assurance rather than internal sign-off.
How I Think About It
I apply the same four-step discipline to every framework: Assess Reality, Design What Fits, Validate Early, and Strengthen What Matters.
