There is no single published price for ISO/IEC 27001 certification in Australia. What it costs depends on the size of the business, the scope being certified, and which accredited certification body carries out the audit. We don't yet have enough verified pricing data from Australian providers to publish a reliable range, so rather than guess, this page explains what actually drives the cost.

What drives the cost

The certification body's audit fee scales with the size of the organisation being certified and the number of sites or services in scope, since a larger scope means more auditor time on-site. On top of the audit itself, most businesses also spend on preparation: gap analysis against the standard, writing the required policies and risk documentation, and staff training, either done internally or through a consultant. The audit fee then repeats every year as a smaller surveillance audit, with a larger recertification audit every three years.

These figures are general information only, not a quote. Actual pricing varies with scope, location, provider and timing. Nothing here is an offer, and no figure binds any provider. See our terms of use.
