Most staff are domain experts, not audit specialists, and the standard's language is dense and interpretive, leading to the misinterpretation of clauses.

Staff pulled away from business-as-usual activities, leading to burnout, delayed milestones and budget overruns (audit readiness takes 500 - 2,000 staff hours)

Fear of non-conformities can lead to creating documents "just in case". Auditors can later cite "ineffective quality management systems".

Documented processes do not match daily operations. During Stage 1 audit findings, evidence of implementation is lacking leading to major non-compliance.

Weak planning. Teams list generic risks without likelihood/impact or link to objectives, leading to major non-compliances in Stage 2 as objectives are not measurable.

Superficial findings of internal auditors due to lack of independence/training. Audits are tick-box exercises with auditors discovering systemic issues.

Busy executives skip reviews or treat them as status updates, leading to top management not ensuring quality management system effectiveness.

Internal auditors try to measure everything, making it difficult to find meaningful insights, leading to confusion and poor decision-making.
“I’ve worked with Angela from Adapt Cybersecurity on multiple IRAP assessments. Her grasp of protective security frameworks (ISM, PSPF, DSPF and their international equivalents) is among the strongest I’ve encountered. She quickly identifies gaps, maps controls to real world risk, and delivers clear, evidence-based findings without unnecessary friction. Angela operates at a principal assessor level with the precision and speed that demanding programs require. She’s direct, technically authoritative, and consistently raises the quality of every review she touches. If you need someone who truly understands controlled environments at PROTECTED and above, Angela is one of the very few I’d trust without reservation.”
