Frequently Asked Questions

How is a Gap Assessment different from a full audit?

A gap assessment is performed by your chosen consulting partner to give you an honest picture of where you stand before the external auditor arrives. It is your preparation tool. A formal audit is conducted by an accredited, independent certifying body and results in official certification. We perform gap assessments; we do not perform the certifying audit.

Which frameworks do you assess against?

We assess against NIS2, DORA, ISO 27001:2022, PCI DSS v4.0, TISAX (VDA ISA 6.0), SOC 2 Type II, CRA, and EU AI Act. We can also perform hybrid assessments if you need coverage across multiple frameworks simultaneously.

What evidence do you need from us?

We conduct a structured information-gathering process including: documentation review (existing policies, procedures, and previous audit reports), technical configuration review (network diagrams, system inventory), and stakeholder interviews (IT, HR, Legal, Operations). We provide a preparation checklist before we start.

What does the remediation roadmap look like?

It is a prioritized action plan organized by effort and impact. Each item includes: the specific gap identified, the control requirement it maps to, a suggested remediation approach, an estimated effort level, and a recommended owner. You receive it in a format ready for project management tools.
