The Problem
Enterprise buyers and regulators now demand proof your data is secure. Without ISO 27001, deals stall in security review and you lose contracts to certified competitors.

Why weeks, not months
AI-assisted evidence review, one client portal
Every ISO 27001 EU engagement runs on the Praxis-Q compliance platform. You upload evidence per control, AI scores it against the requirement, and your auditor reviews in the same workflow — from scoping through to the issued, publicly verifiable certificate.
AI evidence scoring
Every upload is scored against the control before an auditor sees it — gaps surface in minutes, not at the review meeting.
One client portal
Scoping, evidence, auditor queries and status live in one place. No email chains, no spreadsheet trackers.
Auditor sign-off
Praxis-Q auditors review inside the same workflow, so review rounds shrink and the certificate issues sooner.
ISO 27001:2022 as the Common Backbone Across EU Regimes
GDPR's Article 32, NIS2's risk-management measures, and DORA's ICT risk-management framework each independently require broadly the same underlying capability - a documented risk assessment methodology, technical and organisational security controls, incident detection and response, and ongoing governance oversight - expressed in each regulation's own specific language and reporting requirements. ISO 27001:2022's Annex A controls, restructured into four themes (organisational, people, technical, physical) with 93 total controls, map onto most of what each regime independently asks for. Praxis-Q builds one ISMS that produces evidence usable across all three, rather than three disconnected programmes each demanding substantially the same underlying proof.
Certification Bodies and Accreditation Across the EU
Unlike SOC 2's single-country AICPA model, ISO 27001 certification bodies are accredited by national accreditation bodies across the EU (and beyond) that are all mutually recognised under the IAF's Multilateral Recognition Arrangement - a certificate issued by any IAF MLA-accredited body carries equivalent international standing, whether the accrediting body sits in Germany, France, Ireland or elsewhere. Praxis-Q selects an appropriately accredited certification body for the client's specific jurisdiction and hands off the formal Stage 1 and Stage 2 assessment to them after completing the implementation and audit-readiness work.
Where ISO 27001 Falls Short of NIS2 and DORA on Its Own
Despite the substantial overlap, ISO 27001 certification alone doesn't fully satisfy either NIS2 or DORA - NIS2 requires specific incident-reporting timelines and member-state-specific procedural obligations that ISO 27001 doesn't dictate, and DORA requires specific ICT third-party contract provisions and, for the largest entities, threat-led penetration testing that sit outside Annex A's scope entirely. Praxis-Q treats ISO 27001 as the foundational layer and builds the regime-specific additions - incident-reporting playbooks for NIS2, vendor contract clauses for DORA - on top of it, rather than presenting certification alone as sufficient compliance for either directive.
Statement of Applicability Across Multiple Regimes
Building a Statement of Applicability that's genuinely useful across GDPR, NIS2 and DORA simultaneously requires documenting not just which of the 93 Annex A controls apply and why, but explicitly cross-referencing which controls satisfy which external requirement - a control implementing encryption might simultaneously evidence GDPR Article 32, a NIS2 risk-management measure, and a DORA ICT security requirement. Praxis-Q builds this cross-referencing directly into the SoA and supporting documentation, so an auditor, a GDPR regulator or a DORA supervisor reviewing the same evidence sees exactly how it satisfies their specific requirement.
Engagement Timeline
Gap assessment against ISO 27001:2022, scoped to also identify NIS2/DORA/GDPR-specific gaps where relevant, typically runs one to two weeks. Full ISMS build-out and Annex A implementation follows, with Stage 1 and Stage 2 assessment scheduled with the chosen accredited certification body. Praxis-Q supports the ongoing annual surveillance cycle across the certificate's three-year validity, layering regime-specific reviews (NIS2 transposition changes, DORA vendor contract renewals) onto the same cadence.
