Accreditation bodies
Sourcing ISO 27001 Auditors
Accreditation bodies are organizations that evaluate whether an individual, organization, or entity is qualified to conduct ISO 27001 audits.
In simple terms, accreditation bodies make sure the auditors are doing their job right. They provide oversight and validate that certification bodies follow consistent, reliable processes when certifying businesses.
In the United States, the main accreditation body is ANAB (ANSI National Accreditation Board). It operates under the global framework set by the International Accreditation Forum (IAF). This means any ISO 27001 certificate issued by an ANAB-accredited body is globally recognized and trusted.
