The CertifyNow Approach
This results in a system that:
meets regulatory requirements
works in day-to-day practice
enables clear management
remains stable in the long term
Organisations are increasingly faced with the challenge of implementing several regulatory requirements simultaneously.
Alongside established management standards, new regulatory requirements are emerging, such as:
NIS2 Directive
Digital Operational Resilience Act
The good news is that these requirements can be integrated into a single system architecture
NIS2 and DORA set out legal requirements.
They require:
Risk management
Security measures
Clear responsibilities
Reporting obligations
Regular reviews
However, they do not describe a comprehensive management system.

ISO 9001 – Quality management
ISO/IEC 27001 – Information security
ISO/IEC 20000-1 – IT service management
They establish a manageable organisational structure.
