There are several factors that can influence how long it takes. The scope of the certification is critical, which includes things like the organization’s size, the number and complexity of processes, the number of locations, and the number of employees—the maturity of the organization’s existing information security capability and knowledge. The process may be sped up if the organization already has experience with management system standards such as ISO 9001 Quality.

It can take months or years to overcome these obstacles.
