New York City, New York Oct 21, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - Companies preparing for ISO 27001 and SOC 2 are increasingly outsourcing compliance and internal audit functions to reduce cost, preserve independence, and accelerate certification timelines. Edge Consulting Group provides fractional GRC support, outsourced ISO 27001 internal audits, and liaison services with external auditors, allowing companies to focus their internal resources on core operations.
According to Kirk Bradley Elmore (CISA, CIA), more companies are moving to outsourced compliance functions to ensure independence and improve credibility with external auditors.
ISO 27001 Clause 9.2 requires internal audits at planned intervals, but many companies lack the resources or independence to conduct them in-house. Outsourcing helps meet this requirement while preventing conflicts of interest and lowering operational burden.
Edge Consulting Group also supports SOC 2 readiness, vendor-risk program development, and ongoing compliance maintenance on a project or retained basis.
