“Monmouth provided very helpful advice on how we needed to get ready for our ISO 27001 audit. Alan did a good job of de-mystifying what was required. We found Monmouth’s support to be invaluable in updating our management system to ensure it was compliant with the regulations.”
“Operating in the healthcare sector there’s a clear need to be able to demonstrate a robust and effectively operating information security framework - being a small firm (<10 employees) we wanted to implement a financially viable framework that aligned with our business model. We were super happy to select Monmouth partners who clearly understood the sector, our business model and who designed and implemented a mature and flexible framework which allowed us to attain certification within our timeframes. The framework has proved intuitive and proportional and we look forward to continuing our partnership.”
