Before choosing a consultant or budgeting: decision guides
Use these guides as a checklist when comparing consultants and estimating budget and timeline.
- Budgeting for ISO 27701 next year: how to estimate itISO 27701:2025 can be certified on its own, but it is not GDPR compliance. Estimate roles, scope, regulatory mapping, consulting and certification costs along one of two routes: stand-alone implementation or integration with ISO 27001.
