Build and run an audit-ready ISMS
We help organizations establish and operate an Information Security Management System (ISMS) aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 or BSI IT-Grundschutz. Pragmatic, certification-oriented, and tailored to your size and maturity.
Industry / Area
Information Security / ISMS
Scope
Design, implementation and operation of an ISMS aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 or BSI IT-Grundschutz
ibc role
Consulting + ISMS build-up + optional provision of an Information Security Officer (CISO/ISB)
Typical Duration
Implementation typically 3–9 months, ongoing operation thereafter
Team setup
Typically 1–3 information security experts
Context
Information security requirements are rising across industries and organization sizes
Regulations, audits, and customer requirements increasingly demand a structured security management system.
Organizations face growing regulatory and operational pressure to implement information security in a systematic way. Requirements driven by ISO/IEC 27001, BSI IT-Grundschutz, NIS2, and customer/vendor expectations increasingly require an integrated management system—not just isolated controls. Many organizations already have technical measures in place (e.g., firewalling, backups, access controls).
What’s often missing is a coherent ISMS with clear responsibilities, documented processes, consistent risk management, and continuous improvement. ibc supports you in building an ISMS that is practical in day-to-day operations and audit-ready—and can be sustained long-term.
Challenge
Security measures exist but without an operating system
Without governance, risk logic and documentation, security becomes hard to steer and even harder to audit.
Especially in SMEs and public-sector organizations, internal resources and ISMS experience are often limited. As a result, information security remains fragmented: controls exist, but there is no overarching management system to assess risks, define responsibilities, and steer measures consistently.
Typical issues include:
- no centralized information security strategy
- unclear roles and responsibilities
- missing or inconsistent documentation of measures
- unstructured risk analysis and treatment
- and challenges in audits, tenders, or certifications
The consequence is higher security risk, lower audit readiness, and potential compliance gaps.
What we do
Set up a structured, audit-ready ISMS without unnecessary bureaucracy
A standards-based approach, adapted to your organization’s size, structure and regulatory needs: ibc supports you throughout the ISMS lifecycle. From assessment to implementation and sustained operation. Aligned with international standards and proven practices.
Typical activities include:
- assessing the current security organization and processes
- defining roles, responsibilities and governance (including an ISB/CISO model if required)
- running an information security risk assessment and risk treatment planning
- building required policies, processes and documentation
- supporting implementation of technical and organizational measures
- and preparing and supporting audits/certifications and continuous improvement.
Typical deliverables include:
- an information security policy
- a risk management process
- an asset inventory and classification approach
- a security concept and measures catalogue
- an ISMS handbook/documentation set
- and audit, review and improvement routines
