Implement ISO 27001 in 6 Months
Our ISMS implementation workshop programme is designed to take your organisation from initial assessment to full readiness for ISO 27001 certification within an accelerated timeframe of 6 months.
The programme combines in-person and virtual workshops with the use of the ResGuard Compliance Manager (RCM) platform to automate documentation, policy management and evidence collection.
Why ISO 27001 in Switzerland?
ISO 27001 adoption in Switzerland is driven by strong regulatory requirements and market expectations:
- nDSG technical and organisational measures — Switzerland's revised Federal Act on Data Protection requires organisations to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures; ISO 27001 is the recognised standard for demonstrating this
- FINMA requirements — The Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority's Circular 2023/1 on operational risks and resilience expects financial institutions to demonstrate robust information security governance
- GDPR alignment — Swiss companies with EU customers or EU operations benefit from ISO 27001 as evidence of compliance with GDPR Art. 32 security requirements
- Supply chain demands — Swiss multinationals and their suppliers increasingly require ISO 27001 certification as a prerequisite in procurement and vendor assessments
- DORA for financial services — Swiss financial firms operating in EU markets must meet DORA ICT risk management requirements, for which ISO 27001 provides the foundational framework
The 6-Month Workshop Programme
The programme is structured across six expert-led workshops, each covering a defined phase of the ISMS implementation:
- Workshop 1 — Gap analysis and scope definition against ISO 27001 and nDSG requirements
- Workshop 2 — Organisational context, leadership commitment and policy framework
- Workshop 3 — Risk assessment, asset inventory and Statement of Applicability
- Workshop 4 — Control implementation, procedures and evidence templates
- Workshop 5 — Internal audit preparation and management review
- Workshop 6 — Certification readiness review and mock audit
ResGuard Compliance Manager (RCM)
Throughout the programme, your team works directly with the RCM platform to build a sustainable, operational ISMS:
- Policy Approval Workflow — Structured review and sign-off of all ISMS policies
- Risk Management — Digital risk register with guided assessment and treatment tracking
- Policy Acknowledgement Monitoring — Track employee awareness and policy acceptance
- Compliance Dashboard — Real-time visibility of your ISO 27001 implementation progress
- Evidence Repository — Centralised audit-ready documentation and artefact management
How Does It Work?
Gap Analysis
We assess your current information security posture against ISO 27001 requirements and nDSG obligations to define scope and priorities.
Workshops & Implementation
Six structured workshops guide your team through every phase — building documentation, processes and controls directly in the RCM platform.
Certification Ready
At the end of the programme, your ISMS is fully documented and operational — ready for ISO 27001 Stage 1 and Stage 2 external audits.
