ISO27K

Throughline, ISO 27001

Unclaimed · Australia

A registered CPA firm and certification body that performs SOC 1 and SOC 2 audits and signs the report, and also covers ISO 27001 and ISO 42001.

Throughline also offers SOC 2 audit. This page covers the ISO 27001 and ISO 42001 side of what they do, because that is what ISO27K is about.

Throughline delivers from Australia. Canadian buyers should expect a cross-border engagement: quoting in Australian dollars, and no built-in familiarity with PIPEDA, Law 25 or the Canadian buyers asking you for a report. Where those matter, compare the quote against Canadian firms in this directory, which price in CAD and already work inside that market.

What to check before you hire them

This is general advice about the kind of work Throughline offers, not a judgement about the firm. Ask any firm the same questions and compare the answers.

Certification body or consultant, never both for you
Only an accredited certification body can issue an ISO 27001 certificate, and it cannot consult for the same client. A consultant builds the ISMS and walks you to the audit. Ask which one this is, and if they certify, ask who accredits them: in Canada that is the Standards Council of Canada, and internationally UKAS or ANAB.
ISO 42001 is new, so ask what they have actually done
The AI management system standard published recently and the pool of firms with real engagements behind them is small. Ask how many they have completed rather than how many they can talk about, and whether they are accredited to certify against it or only to advise.

Working with a firm in Australia

Most of this work is done remotely and a cross-border firm can be the right answer, particularly if your buyers, your auditor or your users are in Australia too. Weigh the exchange rate against whatever they do better than the firms closer to you.

If a firm headquartered outside Canada also advertises a Canadian presence, treat that as a claim to check rather than a fact. Ask for the Canadian street address, the names of the people working from it, and a Canadian client who will take your call. A real office answers all three in one reply. A landing page put up to rank for Canadian searches answers none of them, and the engagement is still delivered from Australia.

How do I know I can trust a firm like this?

Judge the website the way you would judge a report they wrote for you, because it is the only sample of their work you get for free. Four things to look for:

Past work, in specifics. Named clients, case studies, redacted sample reports, published research, CVEs, conference talks. A security or compliance firm that has done the work has something to show for it. A site that describes the service at length and never once shows the output of it is the single biggest red flag on this list.

An address in every country they claim. If a firm says it operates somewhere, it should show a street address there, and named people working from it. A country page with no address, no staff and no local clients is a marketing page, not an office, and the work will be delivered from wherever they actually are. That is fine if they say so, and a problem if they do not.

Writing that could only be about them. Generic copy that could have its name swapped for any competitor's, or the flat and tireless prose of an unedited language model, usually means nobody senior has looked at the page. Ask yourself whether any of it commits them to anything a client could hold them to.

People with names. Who leads the work, what they have done before, and are they findable outside the site. Testing and audit work is done by individuals, and a firm that will not name them is asking you to buy a logo.

None of these is proof on its own. Two or more together is a reason to ask direct questions before you sign anything, and to compare at least three firms. There is a longer version, with what to ask for in each case, on how to vet a firm.

Is this firm recommended by ISO27K?

No. A listing is not a recommendation. Throughline carries an unclaimed listing, and nothing on this page is an endorsement of the firm or a statement that it is the right one for you. Compare at least three.

Does Throughline pay to appear here?

No. This is a free listing. Firms can pay for the Verified tier, and this one has not.

How do I get a quote from them?

Use the form linked above. It goes to the firms whose services match what you describe, which includes this one. You are never charged for a quote.
