Standards Compliance

Audit, implementation and continuous monitoring services that take you from readiness to certification, and keep you compliant, across the world’s major security and privacy frameworks.

Overview

Standards Compliance: from readiness to certification, and staying there

Standards Compliance takes you the whole way: audit, implementation and continuous monitoring across the major security and privacy frameworks, then the ongoing work to keep you compliant once you are. Rather than treating each framework as a separate scramble, we run it as one accountable service, so the controls, policies and evidence that satisfy one standard are reused wherever they overlap with another. That is one partner across your compliance obligations, not a different supplier for every certificate.

It is built for regulated and high-growth organisations that need a framework to win business, satisfy a regulator, or reassure a demanding customer. Baknet is certified to ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO 9001 at firm level, and the work is delivered by certified, senior practitioners, so you are guided by people who have been through certification themselves. Our method is evidence-led from the first day: findings that reproduce, fixes verified as closed, one included retest and daily progress reporting, which means compliance rests on documented proof rather than assertion.

What it includes

Four capabilities, one accountable service

ISO/IEC 27001:2022

We deliver readiness assessment, ISMS implementation and advisory through to certification. We baseline where you stand, build the management system and its control set, prepare the evidence, and support you through the certification audit itself. If you need the underlying architecture and policy work built out first, our Cyber Advisory service handles that groundwork.

PCI DSS

We provide compliance audit and continuous compliance monitoring for payment card environments. We assess your cardholder data environment against the standard, help close the gaps, and keep controls effective between assessments so the requirement does not lapse the moment the audit ends.

HIPAA

We deliver compliance audit and continuous compliance monitoring for healthcare data environments. We look at how protected health information is stored, accessed and transmitted, then help you evidence the safeguards that keep it compliant over time rather than only on audit day.

GDPR, CCPA and PIPEDA Data Privacy

We review, update or develop your information security and data privacy policies and procedures to meet these regulatory regimes. Because these obligations turn on how personal data is actually handled, this capability works closely with our Data Confidence practice, which builds the data-protection controls underneath the policies.

How we deliver

Delivering Standards Compliance

Every engagement includes daily progress updates, detailed reporting, the results of the checks we execute and one included retest to confirm remediation holds.

01

Gap and Readiness Assessment

We baseline your current posture against the target framework and quantify the distance to compliance, so there are no surprises about scope.

02

Remediation Roadmap

A prioritised, practical plan covering controls, policies, evidence and clear ownership, sequenced as the shortest credible path to audit.

03

Implement and Audit

We support your teams through control implementation, then execute the compliance audit with full evidence trails behind every finding.

04

Continuous Compliance

Monitoring keeps controls effective between audit cycles, watching for drift so there is no annual fire drill.

It is the same disciplined path we use across the practice. See how we work on How We Engage.

Why it pays off

Why Standards Compliance pays off

Win Regulated Business

Certifications and attestations open the door to enterprise, healthcare, payment and public-sector buyers. Many of these customers simply cannot contract with a supplier that lacks the relevant framework, so compliance becomes the gateway to their business rather than a cost centre.

Avoid Fines and Sanctions

Demonstrable GDPR, CCPA, PIPEDA, HIPAA and PCI compliance materially reduces your regulatory penalty exposure. Documented controls and evidence also put you in a far stronger position should a regulator ever come asking.

Always Audit-Ready

Continuous monitoring replaces the pre-audit scramble with steady, evidenced compliance. Controls stay effective year-round, so each audit becomes a confirmation of business as usual rather than a project that consumes a quarter.

Customer Trust, Proven

Independent compliance signals give customers and partners confidence in how you protect their data. That assurance shortens their security reviews and removes a common source of friction from your sales cycle.

Compliance as a competitive asset, not an annual emergency.

Questions, answered

Frequently asked

Which frameworks do you cover?

We cover ISO/IEC 27001:2022, PCI DSS, HIPAA, and the GDPR, CCPA and PIPEDA privacy regimes, plus alignment work against CIS and other control baselines. Where controls overlap, we build them once and map them across every framework they satisfy.

How long does it take to get certification-ready?

It depends on your starting posture. The gap assessment quantifies exactly that distance in the first weeks, and the roadmap then sequences the shortest credible path to audit, so you get a realistic timeline early rather than an open-ended commitment.

What does continuous compliance monitoring involve?

We track control effectiveness and evidence between audit cycles, flag drift as it happens, and keep your evidence trails current, so audits become routine rather than emergencies. It pairs well with Managed SOC where you also want live monitoring and response behind the controls.

What do you need from us to get started?

We begin with a short scoping conversation to confirm the target framework, the systems and data in scope, and who owns each area. From there the gap assessment does the heavy lifting, so you do not need everything mapped out before we start.

Is Baknet itself certified to these standards?

Baknet is certified to ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO 9001 at firm level, and the work is delivered by certified, senior practitioners. That means you are guided by people who have been through certification and audit themselves, not only advised on the theory.

How do you handle confidentiality and our data?

We work under a signed non-disclosure agreement and handle your information under our own ISO/IEC 27001 controls. Evidence and findings are shared only with the people you nominate, and we agree data handling and retention with you before any assessment begins.

Can you map controls across more than one framework at once?

Yes. Most frameworks share a large common core of controls, so we implement each control once and map it to every standard it satisfies. That avoids duplicated effort and keeps a single, consistent evidence base across your obligations.

How does this work alongside our in-house team?

We work with your existing owners rather than around them, supporting control implementation and transferring knowledge as we go. The aim is a management system your team can run confidently between audits, not a dependency on us.

How is an engagement priced?

Pricing follows the scope confirmed at the gap assessment stage, so it reflects your frameworks, environment and starting posture rather than a fixed package. You receive a clear, evidence-led proposal with no obligation before any work is committed.

Ready to turn compliance into an asset?

Share your context and constraints, and we will scope a Standards Compliance engagement to match. You will receive a clear, evidence-led proposal with no obligation.
