Information Security & Governance
Senior information security consultants for ISO 27001 management systems, NIS2, risk management and compliance – from current state to implementation.
We are information security consultants for organisations that need governance to work in practice: an ISO 27001 management system that lives on after the project, risk management the board can decide on, and compliance with NIS2, DORA and other requirements without duplicate work. Engagements can be advisory, hands-on delivery or an ongoing role as interim CISO.
A common first step is a gap analysis against ISO 27001, NIS2 or DORA that gives a documented current state and a prioritised plan. We then help you close the gaps, as with a software company building its ISMS and a chemical company meeting NIS2. Read more about how we work.
We work from our office in Bjärred with organisations in Malmö, Lund, Helsingborg and across Sweden.

Common situations
This is how it usually starts. If you recognise yourselves in one of them, we know roughly where to begin.
A customer or owner requires ISO 27001, or a management system you can show
We build or lift your information security management system and make you ready for certification.

What is the difference between information security and IT security?
Information security protects all information that matters to the business, whether it sits in systems, on paper or with suppliers, and covers governance, procedures and people. IT security, or cybersecurity, is the technical protection of the IT environment. An information security management system holds both together.
Do we have to certify against ISO 27001?
No, certification is voluntary. Many organisations still work according to the standard because it gives a proven structure for risk work, policies and controls, and because customers and procurements increasingly ask for it. We help you judge whether certification is worth the effort for you.
How long does it take to implement an information security management system?
It depends on the size of the organisation, what already exists and how much time the organisation can invest. A realistic range is from a few months for a smaller organisation in good order to a year or more for a larger organisation starting from scratch. A gap analysis gives a clear answer for your situation.
Can you coordinate ISO 27001, NIS2, DORA and GDPR?
Yes. The requirements overlap to a large extent: risk analysis, policies, incident management, continuity and supplier governance. We build one management system where common requirements are handled once and what is specific to each regulation is added, instead of parallel tracks.
Do you only work with large organisations?
No. We work with companies and organisations of all sizes, from smaller companies to municipalities and regulated businesses. The set-up is adapted to your size and maturity so that the security work stays proportionate.

Governance & Security Frameworks
We help you establish and maintain robust security governance frameworks tailored to your organisation. This includes developing an Information Security Management System (ISMS) aligned with ISO 27001 and other best practices to systematically manage security. We integrate relevant regulatory requirements and industry standards into your business processes, ensuring security is embedded in day-to-day operations. Our experts assist in creating clear security policies, procedures, and controls that reflect your company’s unique risk profile and strategic goals. We also conduct security maturity assessments to evaluate your current security posture and guide improvements, ensuring your governance keeps pace with evolving threats and business needs.
In brief
- Information security management system (ISMS) aligned with ISO 27001
- Regulatory requirements and industry standards built into business processes
- Policies, procedures and controls based on your risk profile
- Maturity assessments that show the current state and guide improvements
Security Strategy & Roadmap
We help you define a clear security direction that supports your business priorities and risk appetite. This includes establishing a security strategy, target state, and a practical roadmap with prioritised initiatives, budgets, and responsibilities. We translate requirements from standards and regulations into actionable plans and measurable outcomes, ensuring alignment with leadership and key stakeholders. Our approach creates transparency, supports decision-making, and helps you build security maturity step-by-step, without losing momentum in day-to-day operations.
In brief
- Security strategy, target state and a practical roadmap with priorities, budget and ownership
- Requirements from standards and regulations translated into concrete plans and measurable results
- Buy-in from management and key stakeholders
Risk Management
Proactively identifying and managing threats is central to our approach. We work with you to develop risk maps and risk registers that make threats to your information assets visible, to decide risk criteria that management stands behind, and through risk analyses and tailored risk treatment plans to prioritise and implement preventive measures before the vulnerabilities materialise. The risk analysis answers what can happen. What you do when it happens – impact analysis (BIA), continuity plans, recovery and exercises – is described in the service area Preparedness, continuity and resilience. Here we make sure the two hang together: the same picture of what is critical, and the continuity requirements written into the management system.
In brief
- Risk maps and risk registers that make threats to information assets visible
- Decided risk criteria and treatment plans with preventive measures
- Continuity, recovery and exercises: see the service area Preparedness, continuity and resilience
Compliance & Regulatory Adherence
Navigating complex laws and standards is made easier with our compliance support. We help your organisation achieve and maintain compliance with relevant laws, regulations, and industry standards (such as GDPR, NIS2, or other sector-specific rules). Our consultants establish structured compliance programs that include policy development, internal controls, and ongoing monitoring to ensure no requirement is overlooked. We perform audits and gap assessments to identify compliance risks and highlight any vulnerabilities in your controls. When gaps are found, we guide you through the necessary improvements and remediation steps. Our goal is to foster a strong security culture and demonstrate accountability, so you can confidently meet regulatory obligations and avoid costly penalties. (For dedicated data privacy services, see our Data Protection & Privacy offerings.)
In brief
- Compliance with laws, regulations and standards such as GDPR and NIS2
- Structured compliance programmes with policy work, internal controls and follow-up
- Audits and gap analyses that identify compliance risks
- Support through improvements and remediation steps
Cybersecurity & Incident Management
Governance should hold technical protection and preparedness together, not replace them. The technical security measures – network and cloud security, vulnerability management, secure configuration – belong to the service area Cybersecurity & Technical Security. Incident preparedness, recovery and exercises belong to Preparedness, continuity and resilience. What we do here is make sure incident management follows from the risk work, that roles and reporting duties under the Cybersecurity Act and DORA are decided by management, and that lessons from incidents and exercises flow back into the risk register and the management system.
In brief
- Technical security measures: see the service area Cybersecurity & Technical Security
- Incident preparedness, recovery and exercises: see Preparedness, continuity and resilience
- Here: roles, reporting duties and feedback from incidents into the risk register and the management system
Security Awareness & Training
Even the best policies and technologies require knowledgeable people to be truly effective. We deliver customised security awareness training programs to cultivate a security-conscious culture within your organisation. Through engaging workshops, e-learning modules, and even simulated exercises, we equip your employees with the tools and knowledge to recognise threats (like phishing or social engineering) and to follow security best practices in their daily work. Our training is tailored to your industry and internal policies, ensuring it’s relevant and practical. By increasing employee awareness and competence, we reduce human risk factors and empower your staff to act as an additional line of defence against security breaches.
In brief
- Training programmes that build a security-aware culture
- Workshops, e-learning and simulated exercises, for example against phishing
- Adapted to your industry and internal policies
Third-Party Risk Management
Your security is only as strong as the weakest link, which is why we extend your governance to your vendors and partners. Our third-party due diligence services evaluate the security practices of your suppliers, service providers, and other external partners. We perform comprehensive assessments and audits of third parties to ensure they meet your organisation’s security and compliance standards. This includes reviewing their policies, controls, and past track record, as well as identifying any risks they might pose to your data or operations. We also help you institute ongoing monitoring of third-party security measures, with periodic reviews and updates. By actively managing third-party risk, we help mitigate supply chain and partner-related threats, giving you confidence that your extended enterprise is secure.
In brief
- Due diligence of suppliers, service providers and partners
- Assessments and audits against your security and compliance requirements
- Ongoing follow-up with recurring reviews
