FAQ
Can we be ISO 31000 certified?+–
ISO 31000 is guidance. Bodies may offer gap assessments, but it is not a classic certifiable MS standard.
How does it relate to COSO ERM?+–
Both are ERM frameworks. Teams often use one vocabulary and map to the other.
Does it replace ISO 27001 risk?+–
No. 27001 has specific ISMS risk requirements. 31000 is the broader enterprise lens.
How often to refresh the register?+–
On a defined cycle and after material change or incident.
