ISO 27001 Non-Conformance Help

An audit finding doesn’t have to derail you. We help you understand what went wrong, close the non-conformance properly, and make sure it doesn’t come back.

// what it is

Close the finding — and the gap behind it

When an audit exposes a non-conformance, the real challenge isn’t just ticking it closed — it’s understanding what went wrong, regaining control, and making sure the issue is genuinely addressed. We help you respond in a way that satisfies the auditor and actually strengthens your ISMS.

Frequently asked questions

What is a non-conformance?

An audit finding that your ISMS doesn’t meet an ISO 27001 requirement — major or minor — which you must address to gain or keep certification.

How quickly must we respond?

Certification bodies set timeframes (often weeks for the plan, longer to evidence) — we help you respond within them.

Can you handle major non-conformities?

Yes — we help with root cause, corrective action and the evidence to close both major and minor findings.

Will this prevent it happening again?

That’s the point — we fix the underlying cause and adjust your ISMS to stop recurrence.
