Already FedRAMP High authorized, RegScale completes ISO 27001 with zero nonconformities, accelerating certification across frameworks
TYSONS, Va. — RegScale, the AI-powered continuous controls monitoring (CCM) platform, today announced it has achieved ISO 27001 certification in under 30 days using its own Continuous Controls Monitoring (CCM) platform. For most organizations pursuing certification through manual processes, the journey runs around six months. RegScale’s result demonstrates what becomes possible when compliance runs continuously: certification is a byproduct of the program, not a project of its own.
The ISO/IEC 27001 certification was conducted by leading compliance assessor A-LIGN, a technology-enabled security and compliance partner trusted by more than 4,000 global organizations to help mitigate cybersecurity risks.
“Achieving ISO 27001 this quickly was not about adding more people or more process,” said Travis Howerton, Co-Founder and CEO of RegScale. “It was about proving that CCM works. We used our own platform to automate evidence collection, maintain continuous visibility, and eliminate the operational drag that typically stretches certification into a multi-month effort.”
RegScale completed certification with zero major nonconformities and 123 fully implemented controls, managing its entire Information Security Management System within the platform. With RegScale having FedRAMP High authorization, the team reused existing control infrastructure and leveraged AI to write implementation statements directly from policy documentation, building all evidence artifacts in under two weeks. Total audit interview time across both Stage 1 and Stage 2 sessions was under 8 hours, roughly a third of what a typical ISO assessment requires.
Housing the entire ISMS in RegScale, including Change Management and Risk Management, also made it straightforward to present the full program to the auditors. Rather than assembling evidence from disparate sources on demand, the team demonstrated CCM in real time, directly within the platform.
“This certification is the clearest proof point we could offer,” said Dale Hoak, CISO at RegScale. “The same automation our customers use to accelerate FedRAMP, CMMC, and other complex frameworks enabled us to achieve ISO 27001 faster, with fewer resources, and with complete confidence in our control posture.”
The result reflects a broader shift across compliance operations. RegScale’s second annual State of CCM Report found that 83% of organizations report moderate or major delays due to manual compliance processes, while 58% spend more than 2,000 person-hours annually on evidence collection alone.
RegScale enables organizations to replace static audit preparation with always-on compliance readiness, where the work that achieves certification is the same work that maintains it through every surveillance audit that follows.
Today, RegScale also announces the latest OSCAL Hub innovations that further simplify the transition to continuous compliance management, making machine-readable formats easier to generate, validate, and operationalize across highly regulated environments. The latest OSCAL Hub release introduces new data-sharing capabilities for OSCAL artifacts, making the OSCAL Hub a leading distribution center for compliance-as-code. The Hub also introduces AI-powered OSCAL generation, visual document builders, and automated reconciliation capabilities that eliminate the manual bottlenecks slowing security and compliance teams.
