ISO 27001 Remediation Services: From Open Findings to Closed Gaps
You have findings. They came from a gap assessment, an internal audit, a Stage 1 visit, or a penetration test. The question isn’t whether to fix them, it’s who can get them closed before your audit window runs out.
Pentest Testing Corp’s ISO 27001 remediation service is built for exactly this moment. We take your open findings, prioritize them by risk and audit impact, implement fixes across technical controls, policies, and documentation, then deliver evidence your auditor can verify.
Starting from $1,500 fixed-scope or $3,500/month for ongoing sprint-based programs.
You Already Know What’s Broken. Let’s Close It.
Most teams stall between the gap list and the audit. Engineering is stretched. Policies are half-drafted. Nobody’s sure which finding needs to go first. The audit date doesn’t move.
This isn’t a risk assessment and it isn’t a pentest. The discovery phase is behind you. Remediation is execution, working through a prioritized backlog of identified gaps with technical expertise, policy experience, and evidence discipline behind every fix.
We’ve helped SaaS platforms, FinTechs, and healthcare vendors close dozens of nonconformities across every Annex A control domain. The path from finding to closed gap is predictable when you’ve walked it enough times. Here’s exactly how we walk it.
What ISO 27001 Remediation Actually Covers
People often assume remediation means patching servers. It’s considerably broader. A complete gap-closure program works across four areas:
Technical controls
MFA enforcement, least-privilege access reviews, log retention configuration, encryption at rest and in transit, patch management procedures, EDR deployment, and vulnerability management tooling. We work in your stack, not a theoretical one.
Policies and documentation
ISMS manual revisions, Statement of Applicability (SoA) updates, access control policies, cryptographic standards, supplier risk frameworks, BCP and DR plans, and secure development lifecycle documentation. These are updated to reflect your actual control implementations, not rebranded templates.
Evidence collection
Configuration exports, annotated screenshots, change management ticket records, training completion logs, vendor due diligence records, and signed policy acknowledgments. Your auditor needs to see that controls are operating, not just declared.
Corrective action management
For nonconformities from surveillance audits or Stage 1 visits, we write root cause analyses (RCA), implement the corrective action, and document closure in the format your certifying body expects.
Our Six-Stage Remediation Workflow
1. Finding Review
We ingest your gap list, audit report, internal nonconformity log, or risk register, whatever you have. Each finding is mapped to the relevant Annex A control or ISMS clause and assessed for scope and implementation complexity.
2. Risk Prioritization
Not all findings carry the same audit weight. We triage by risk severity, likely classification as major vs. minor nonconformity, and implementation effort. The output is a sequenced remediation backlog with owners, target dates, and clear acceptance criteria, so your internal team knows what’s expected and by when.
3. Fix Guidance + Implementation Support
For technical controls: hands-on implementation or guided oversight, depending on your team’s capacity and environment access. For policies and procedures: drafted or restructured to match your actual controls. We don’t deliver generic content and call it remediation.
4. Evidence Capture
As each fix is implemented, we collect and format the supporting artifacts. Screenshots are annotated. Configurations are exported with context. Change records are referenced. Nothing is assembled under pressure the week before your audit.
5. Validation and Retest
Fixes are validated against the original finding criteria before closure. For technical vulnerabilities that originated from one of our penetration tests, we can run a targeted retest confirming the specific issue is no longer exploitable. This is closure verification, not a second engagement.
6. Evidence Package
You receive a structured closure document: findings mapped to fixes, artifacts organized by Annex A control reference, SoA inputs updated, and an executive summary your auditor can review ahead of or during Stage 2. No gaps, no scrambling, no surprises.
What Your Auditor Receives
The evidence package is organized, not dumped. Every artifact is traceable from the original finding to the implemented control to the documented proof:
- Annotated configuration screenshots mapped to Annex A controls
- Change management records for all technical implementations
- Updated SoA with justifications for inclusions and exclusions
- Policy version history with approval and sign-off records
- Training completion logs with dates and participant scope
- CAPA forms with root cause analysis and closure verification for nonconformities
- Vendor due diligence records for supplier risk controls
- Retest letter or technical validation note for security findings
Organized by control reference. Formatted for ISO 19011-aligned audit review. If your certifying body has a preferred evidence structure, we adapt to it.
Who This Service Is Built For
This isn’t a readiness program for organizations starting from zero. It’s for teams who already have findings and need them closed:
- Organizations heading into Stage 2 with open nonconformities from Stage 1
- Certified companies addressing surveillance or recertification findings
- Teams that completed an ISO 27001 risk assessment and need the treatment plan executed
- SaaS or FinTech vendors under customer or partner pressure to demonstrate active certification progress
- Engineering-led companies with technical controls deployed but incomplete policy, SoA, and evidence layers
If your penetration test produced security findings that map to Annex A controls, particularly A.8 (technological controls), we can bridge those technical vulnerabilities directly into your compliance remediation program.
