The cost of waiting
What happens without ISO 27001 & ISO 42001?
For Irish software companies, missing certification is no longer just a gap — it's a growth blocker.
Lost enterprise deals
Irish banks, insurers, HSE suppliers and US multinationals increasingly require ISO 27001 before signing. No certificate, no shortlist.
NIS2 exposure
Ireland's NIS2 transposition puts digital providers in scope, with fines up to €10M or 2% of global turnover.
EU AI Act penalties
Without an AI management system, proving responsible AI is hard — and fines reach €35M or 7% of turnover.
Endless security questionnaires
Sales cycles stall for weeks while engineers answer 300‑question vendor assessments by hand.
Breach & reputational damage
Ad‑hoc controls leave gaps. One incident can erase years of customer trust and trigger DPC investigations.
Higher insurance costs
Cyber insurers price uncertainty. No ISMS often means higher premiums or refused cover.
The certified advantage
What you gain with certification
Faster enterprise sales
Replace questionnaires with one trusted certificate.
Regulatory readiness

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between ISO 27001 and ISO 42001?+
ISO 27001 is the international standard for information security management (ISMS). ISO 42001 is the newer standard for AI management systems (AIMS), covering governance, risk and transparency of AI. Software companies building or using AI benefit from both — and they share the same management system structure, so they can be implemented together.
How long does certification take?+
With ISOINIT's AI‑supported documentation and fully online audits, most small and mid‑sized Irish software companies are certified in 8–16 weeks, depending on readiness.
How much does it cost?+
Costs depend on company size and scope. ISOINIT, powered by DICIS AG, is built for SMEs with transparent, fixed pricing and no expensive consultants. Request the guide and we'll send a tailored quote.
Is ISOINIT certification recognised in Ireland and the EU?+
Yes. Certificates are issued by DICIS AG, our certification body, under accredited schemes and recognised by customers, partners and regulators across Ireland, the EU, UK and US.
Do we need ISO 42001 if we only use third‑party AI tools?+
If AI influences your product, customer data or decisions, ISO 42001 helps you demonstrate responsible use and prepare for EU AI Act obligations — even when the models come from third parties.
Are audits really fully remote?+
Yes. Audits are conducted online, so your team in Dublin, Cork, Galway or anywhere else doesn't need to stop work for on‑site visits.
Does ISO 27001 help with NIS2 compliance?+
Strongly. ISO 27001 controls map closely to NIS2 requirements for risk management, incident handling and supply‑chain security, giving you a recognised way to evidence compliance.
