Building a single management system that governs information security and artificial intelligence together.

This engagement model supports organisations seeking to achieve ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 42001 through a single, coherent programme.

For organisations without an existing ISMS, we develop a management system that integrates information security and AI governance from the outset. This approach prevents parallel frameworks, redundant controls, and conflicting ownership.

For organisations with ISO/IEC 27001, this model expands the existing ISMS to cover AI governance while maintaining current structures.

In both cases, the outcome is the same: one management system, one risk model, one governance structure, and a clear, defensible path to dual certification.

This model is suited to organisations that:

» Use or plan to implement AI in products, services, or operations.

» Aim to meet emerging regulatory and customer expectations.

» Prefer a unified, integrated governance approach.

» Require a clear, auditable path to certification.

The focus is on designing a unified operating model, rather than building two separate programs. This model governs:

» Information security

» Data and model risk

» AI use, development, and oversight

» Incident handling and escalation

» Accountability and review

Whether starting from the ground up or enhancing an existing ISMS, this engagement provides:

» A comprehensive management system aligned with both standards.

» An integrated risk assessment that addresses both security and AI.

» Policies and controls designed for single implementation, avoiding duplication.

» Clear ownership defined across leadership, product, and operations.

» An audit-ready structure that supports both certifications.

This isn’t a technology project. It’s an organisational operating model designed for companies that depend on data and AI and must demonstrate responsible, secure, and internationally compliant governance.
