In short

ISO 27001 certification in Hanoi at a glance

Hoa Lac sells ideas, and ideas travel as files. Software teams, chip designers and research groups in Hanoi's hi-tech parks hold source code, circuit layouts and experimental data that partners overseas will only share with a supplier who can show control. The city's 2026 investment plan, reported on the Board's site, even lists data and cybersecurity training among its priorities. ISO 27001 is the common answer: define a scope, assess information risk, choose controls through a Statement of Applicability against Annex A, then audit and review the system. Sterling serves Hanoi from its Ho Chi Minh City office, keeps the risk register in Effivity and prepares your people for an accredited certification body.

Requirements

What ISO 27001 requires

Strip away the vocabulary and ISO/IEC 27001 requires a company to prove six things about how it protects the information it holds.

You know what you are protectingThe scope is defined: the information, systems, locations and people that matter, and who inside and outside relies on them.
Management owns itTop management sets the information security policy and objectives, assigns roles and gives the effort the resources it needs.
You decided what could go wrong, and what to do about itSecurity risks are assessed against agreed criteria, and each is treated with a recorded choice of safeguards and the reasons for it.
The safeguards work every dayAccess, suppliers, devices, backups, incidents and staff awareness are managed as routine operations, not one-off projects.
You can show itPolicies, risk decisions and records are kept, so an auditor sees the system working in practice rather than on paper.
You check yourselvesSecurity performance is measured, internal audits and management reviews take place, and what they find is put right.

ISO 27001 in Hanoi: questions clients ask

Why is ISO 27001 prominent in Hanoi's investment plans?

The city's 2026 to 2030 foreign-investment plan, reported on the Board's site, names artificial intelligence, big data, cloud and semiconductors as priorities and adds training in data and cybersecurity. Companies entering that ecosystem are asked by partners how information is protected, and a certificate is the usual reply.

Can a Hoa Lac start-up certify only part of its business?

Yes. Scope can cover the team, systems and premises that handle customer or design data, with the rest excluded. The scope appears on the certificate and customers read it, so describe it accurately. A narrow first scope can be widened as the company grows.
