The Context

Datapao supports organizations in sectors such as energy and manufacturing with cloud migrations, data platforms, and analytics/AI initiatives. With growth in customers and delivery complexity, Datapao required a structured and internationally recognized approach to information security governance, risk management, and continual improvement.

What Datapao Set Out to Achieve

  • Third-party assurance: Provide customers with recognized, independent assurance of its ISMS
  • Security consistency: Improve consistency of controls and responsibilities across teams and environments
  • Audit readiness: Maintain an evidence-backed posture to support ongoing customer security reviews

Managing Audit Readiness (Client Activities)

Datapao used Sprinto as a centralized system to organize ISMS documentation, track control activities, and manage evidence collection across its technology environment. This supported internal coordination of risks, controls, and records required for an ISO/IEC 27001 certification audit.

Key Preparation Activities

  • Centralized ISMS documentation and record management
  • Tracking of control operation and evidence
  • Coordination of risk assessment, treatment, and control ownership
  • Internal review activities supporting audit readiness

Independent Certification Audit by Glocert International

Glocert International conducted the certification assessment using a two-stage audit approach in line with ISO/IEC 27001 requirements.

Stage 1 - Readiness Review

  • ISMS scope and boundaries
  • Information security policy and objectives
  • Risk assessment methodology and risk treatment approach
  • Statement of Applicability (SoA) review
  • Internal audit and management review status/records

Stage 2 - Certification Audit

  • Sampling of objective evidence across in-scope processes and systems
  • Interviews with process owners and key personnel
  • Verification of control implementation and operation
  • Assessment of ISMS performance, effectiveness, and continual improvement mechanisms

Following closure of any nonconformities raised during the audit, Glocert's certification decision function completed an independent certification decision in accordance with its certification process.
