An "official" compliance audit is conducted by an accredited body and aims to assess compliance with a standard or to issue certification.
But prior to this formal stage, another mechanism plays a key role: the preparatory compliance audit, also known as a pre-audit.
Carried out in particular by specialized law firms such as Fidal, it enables the company's practices to be analyzed from both a legal and operational perspective in terms of cybersecurity.
These audits have several strategic objectives:
⚖️ effectively prepare for an official audit or certification;
🔍 measure the gap between the current situation and the requirements of a standard or directive;
🤝 assess the level of security in the context of a merger or acquisition;
🚚 Monitor the cyber maturity of suppliers and critical third parties.
Methodology, challenges, coordination between legal requirements and technical realities: this practical guide provides you with a clear and structured overview to help you understand these audits and get the most out of them.
