Many companies and organisations now find themselves under greater pressure than ever before to achieve certification for industry standards, whether applied by regulatory or legislative bodies, or business partners. Either way, achieving compliance is often seen as yet another unwelcome burden on operational resources.

But at Context we understand that achieving compliance with security standards should never be seen either as a meaningless exercise in box ticking, or as an end in itself. Instead, the process of achieving certification can be seen as a valuable opportunity to carry out a comprehensive overhaul of all relevant procedures and resources, with certification a happy by-product of that process.

We offer a range of services designed to help clients achieve certification for the two most important current security standards: ISO/IEC 27001 and the Payment Credit Industry (PCI) Data Security Standards (DSS). We work closely with our clients to establish exactly how each standard applies to their organisation, and can then offer assistance at various points of the compliance/certification process. In each case, our aim is always to work with individual clients to provide a service that meets their needs precisely, and that will help the organisation continue to protect itself effectively into the future.
