FAQ

Common questions

Answers to a few common questions about how AFIsec works with clients.

Do you only provide advice, or do you help implement controls as well?+

AFIsec takes a practical approach and works with clients to implement controls, strengthen processes, and prepare for audits or certification rather than providing generic recommendations alone.

Can AFIsec support businesses without a dedicated security team?+

Yes. AFIsec is designed to support small and medium-sized organisations that need structured guidance and scalable support without a large in-house security function.

Can we engage AFIsec for one project and then ongoing support later?+

Yes. Many organisations start with a focused readiness or alignment engagement and then continue with ongoing GRC or advisory support as their needs evolve.
