Internal Audit Support

Turning Audits into True Security Improvement

Achieving and maintaining recognized security certifications like ISO 27001 or demonstrating compliance with standards such as TISAX requires a robust internal audit process. However, as information security standards become increasingly complex, internal audit functions often lack the specialized experience and deep technical knowledge required for a proper assessment. Without this expertise, the internal audit of security standards risks becoming a superficial "checkbox exercise," failing to identify true weaknesses or provide meaningful insights for actual security improvement.

Our Internal Audit Support service at CShift is specifically designed to prevent your security audits from becoming mere compliance formalities. We provide access to cybersecurity professionals with extensive experience in auditing information security management systems and controls against various standards, including ISO 27001 and TISAX. Our focus is on delivering real value by conducting in-depth, insightful internal audits that go beyond basic compliance checks, providing you with the actionable intelligence needed to genuinely improve your security posture.
