IASME Governance Certification
​
The IASME Governance certification indicates to clients that you are taking appropriate steps to properly protect their information and is a cyber security standard which is an affordable and achievable alternative to the international standard, ISO 27001.
Fortis’ fixed-price solutions will help you to achieve the IASME Governance certification. The simple process is managed through Fortis’ online IASME Governance portal.

IASME GOVERNANCE CERTIFICATION
IASME Governance (can be completed concurrently alongside CE or CE+ or up to 6 months after CE).
The Fortis certified assessor will audit your company and this usually involves interviews with members of staff and a review of supporting documentation and system configuration.

AUDITED IASME GOVERNANCE CERTIFICATION
The Information Assurance for Small to Medium-sized Enterprises (IASME) Governance standard was developed over several years during a government funded project to create a cyber security standard which would be an affordable and achievable alternative to the international standard, ISO 27001.
The IASME Governance standard allows small companies to demonstrate their level of cyber security for a realistic cost and indicates that they are taking positive steps to properly protect their customers’ information.
​
The IASME Governance assessment includes a Cyber Essentials assessment and GDPR requirements and is available either as a self-assessment or on-site audit.
By gaining the Audited IASME Governance certificate your organisation is achieving IASME’s highest level of certification and providing assurance to customers and suppliers that your organisation’s security has been audited by a skilled, independent third-party.
