Security Advisory
Give security decisions a stronger foundation.
From security strategy and AI security to governance and fractional CISO support, we help you build an effective ISMS, prepare for audits, and navigate the requirements of ISO 27001, the Swiss FADP, GDPR, NIS2, and DORA.
your challenges
Putting security requirements into practice
- A customer requires ISO 27001 certification, but the path to achieving it is still unclear.
- Your ISMS is documented, but there is insufficient evidence that it works effectively in day-to-day operations.
- NIS2 or DORA applies to your organization, yet responsibilities and required measures remain undefined.
- Your leadership needs reliable cyber risk assessments and regular reporting to make informed decisions.
- Without a dedicated CISO, security responsibilities are spread across IT, legal, and compliance.
- Outstanding audit findings need to be assessed, prioritized, and effectively resolved.
the problem
Without evidence, security remains an assumption
Policies and frameworks define how security is supposed to work. But for audits, tenders, and customer inquiries, documentation alone is not enough. You need reliable evidence that your security controls are effective in everyday operations.
Without that evidence, effectiveness becomes difficult to assess. Leadership also needs a solid foundation to fulfill its responsibilities, evaluate cyber risks, and make informed decisions.

OUR SERVICES
A clear path to audit readiness
-
We identify the requirements that apply to your organization, from ISO 27001 and DORA to FINMA regulations. By comparing these with your current practices, we reveal where controls are missing and where existing measures need stronger evidence.
-
Together, we establish the scope of your ISMS and any planned certification, taking into account your obligations, relevant business areas, and what can realistically be achieved.
-
We develop risk assessments, security controls, and the Statement of Applicability, alongside policies, responsibilities, and training. Internal audits and management reviews complete an ISMS your team can confidently manage in everyday operations.
-
Access reviews, logs, and reports provide a continuous record of how your controls perform. We guide you through certification audits and support the ongoing development of your ISMS, keeping your organization prepared for future assessments.

The bigger picture
From policy to proven practice
Policies define what security requires, but documented access rights and system logs reveal whether those requirements are being met in everyday operations. Security Advisory connects this operational evidence with your security obligations, providing a reliable foundation for assessing how effectively your controls perform.
- Identity: How do we secure access to what matters?
- Observability: How do we detect & respond to security threats?
- Advisory: How do we manage security risks & verify compliance?
Entitlement reports, documented approvals, and completed access reviews come directly from your IGA platform, not your quality management system. When the two operate separately, gathering the necessary evidence becomes a recurring challenge before every audit.
System logs show whether technical security controls are working as intended. The same data that helps uncover an attack can also provide evidence that security policies are being enforced in practice.
At SECURIX, our three disciplines work together to connect operational insights with the broader security context, creating a stronger foundation for informed decisions.
TECHNIcal EXPERTISE
What makes controls auditable
A reliable audit trail shows not only which security controls are in place, but how they are applied in practice. This requires clear documentation of access rights, approvals, and completed reviews.
Entitlement reports show which access rights have been assigned, while approval records document how they were authorized. Access reviews capture the assessments carried out by designated reviewers, and timestamped revocation records complete the audit trail when access is removed.

Frequently asked questions
Before we get started
The timeline depends on your scope, the maturity of your existing ISMS, and any outstanding measures. Once we’ve assessed your current position, we can estimate the effort involved and coordinate the next steps with your certification body.
Not necessarily on a full-time basis. As your fractional CISO, we take on the role with agreed availability and regular reporting to your executive team.
The cost depends on your current situation, the agreed scope, and the level of support you need. During our initial conversation, we’ll explore your requirements and outline the factors that determine the overall investment.
Your next step
What's next for your security?
You don't need to know whether to build an ISMS, address regulatory requirements, or strengthen your security strategy. We'll start by looking at your current situation and work with you to identify the most effective next steps.
