Certification in one or more standards
With our guidance, you gain and maintain control over your business processes. Certification is then carried out by an accredited certification body (CB) and/or an assurance audit by an IT/RE auditor. Together, we ensure the certificate is achieved and/or the assurance report is issued. Protify supports certification for various standards with a tailored approach that fits your compliance needs – whether it’s for advice, guidance or implementation.

Compliance means adhering to laws and regulations, internal policies and industry or sector standards. This may involve privacy (e.g. GDPR), information security, environment, health and safety, and more.
Compliance is about adhering to rules and standards. Certification is formal proof (usually from an independent body) that your organisation meets a specific standard, such as ISO 27001 or NEN 7510.
Compliance helps avoid legal issues, reputational damage and fines. It also builds trust with customers, partners and regulators.
That depends on your sector. The most common certifications are:
– ISO 27001: Information Security
– NEN 7510: Healthcare-specific information security
– ISAE 3402 / SOC 2: For IT service providers
– GDPR: No certification, but mandatory compliance
Depending on the standard and your starting point, certification typically takes 3 to 12 months – including preparation, implementation and the external audit.
