Frameworks and Certifications
Align your organisation to cyber security frameworks that will enhance your cyber security posture.
What are Frameworks and Certifications?
The blueprints for your organisation’s cyber security posture.
We all know we need to take steps to enhance our cyber security postures. But how do we ensure we’re taking the right steps for our organisations – not just ad hoc steps that don’t truly tie together?
Frameworks form the blueprints for your organisation’s cyber security posture. By certifying or aligning your organisation against recognised industry frameworks, you gain peace of mind that you are basing your cyber security on industry best practices, while reassuring your end users and clients that you take cyber security seriously.
Cyber security penetration testing can help webistes, applications and software uncover vulnerabilities so that procedures can be put in place to prevent these issues from arising.
We also offer complementary services such as Penetration Testing as a Service, which delivers regular, proportionate testing and enhanced security posture visibility.

Your Business Challenges
Our Frameworks and Certifications services are aligned to the challenges your organisation faces.

Meeting compliance and regulatory requirements
It can be tough to meet compliance and regulatory requirements, especially if you don’t know how to meet them without expert insights.



Reassuring end users that you are safe to work with
In such a risk-filled operating environment, your end users will seek reassurance that you are a safe organisation to work with.


Building a scalable cyber security posture
Many organisations want to build a scalable security posture but are unsure of what the most suitable framework is for them to achieve this.
Introducing Frameworks and Certifications Services from Six Degrees
Tailored services that focus on what is best for you and your organisation.
With so many frameworks and certifications out there, how can you know what is best for your organisation? At Six Degrees we take a framework-agnostic approach, guiding you to the most appropriate certification for your organisation and its needs.







ISO 27001
ISO/IEC 27001 is the international standard for information security. The focus of ISO/IEC 27001 is to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the information in an organisation.
Six Degrees will assist you in becoming ISO/IEC 27001 certified and building a culture within your organisation that makes security a business-as-usual activity.







PCI DSS
The PCI Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is a compliance requirement for any organisation that processes cardholder data.
Six Degrees will ensure you are PCI DSS compliant, and we are able to issue compliance reports for you to demonstrate this.







NIST Cyber Security Framework 2.0
The NIST Cyber Security Framework is based on existing standards, guidelines, and practices for organisations to manage and reduce cyber security risk more effectively.
At Six Degrees we enable organisations to align to the Cyber Security Framework and, for organisations with a more mature security posture, to NIST 800-53, a more detailed set of recommended security and privacy controls.







NIST AI Risk Management Framework
The NIST AI Risk Management Framework (RMF) enables businesses to better manage risks to individuals, organisations, and society associated with artificial intelligence (AI). By aligning with NIST AI RMF guidelines, you will be able to understand, baseline, and improve your AI implementations while easing preparation for regulations and standards including ISO 42001, the UK AI White Paper, and the upcoming EU AI Act.
Six Degrees’ NIST AI RMF Assessment enables you to implement governance processes that ensure AI transparency, explainability, and accountability.







ISO 42001
ISO 42001 is the international standard for establishing and implementing an AI management system; by certifying your business against ISO 42001, you gain peace of mind that you are basing your AI management system on industry best practices, while reassuring your clients and partners that you take AI risk seriously.
Six Degrees’ ISO 42001 Gap Analysis is a structured, comprehensive and methodical review of your readiness to implement an AI management system.
