The cybersecurity training company CertiProf has announced updates to its ISO/IEC 27001 certification program. Previously valid for three years, this certification now comes with an additional year of validity before needing renewal. This change was made in response to the introduction of new security standards in 2022. The update aims to align CertiProf’s certification pathways more closely with these updated security standards. The company has stated that professionals who hold a valid ISO/IEC 27001 certificate can renew their credentials through CertiProf’s official channels, which will now include the extended validity period. [1] mentions that the new validity period is for three years, while [2] does not provide specific details about the change but notes that CertiProf has updated its certification pathways to align with 2022 security standards. Neither source provides information on whether this update was mandated by regulatory bodies or if it was a voluntary decision by CertiProf.
