Back in December last year UKAS published the details of the transition arrangements for the
ISO/IES 27001:2022, an update to the previous information security management system which now has the full title of Information Security, Cybersecurity and Privacy Protection. The full article can be read here Latest Technical Bulletins – UKAS but to summarise, any certification bodies as well as organisations that are using the ISO 27001 need to be aware of the overall timelines for assessment against the requirements of the revised certification standard.

A few key dates are coming up this year:
Date | Milestone |
30 April 2023 | UKAS ready to assess to ISO/IEC 27001:2022 |
31 October 2023 | All UKAS transitions of CB’s completed |
31 October 2023 | All initial certifications by CB to be completed against ISO/IEC 27001:2022 from this date |
31 October 2025 | All CB transitions of clients completed |
