With offices in Seoul and Busan, QCert360 has established themselves as a trusted partner for Korean technology and financial companies navigating the complex intersection of K-ISMS-P mandatory requirements and international certification needs.

Pricing Expectations
QCert360 offers K-ISMS-P certification support starting from KRW 15,000,000 and ISO 27001 certification from KRW 20,000,000. Combined K-ISMS-P and ISO 27001 engagements that leverage control mapping between the frameworks can offer cost efficiencies compared to pursuing each certification separately with different providers.
Who Should Choose QCert360
Korean technology and financial companies that need K-ISMS-P certification (mandatory for companies processing personal data of 10,000 or more individuals) should consider QCert360. They are particularly valuable for companies that also need ISO 27001 for international business, as their control mapping approach reduces duplication of effort across both frameworks.
