Circus SE achieves ISO 27001 certification in 12 weeks with Secjur

Circus SE, a publicly listed technology company developing autonomous AI robotics for food supply, faced a tight deadline to achieve a DAkkS-accredited ISO 27001 certification within twelve weeks to meet the requirements of its government and defense sector customers. The challenge was to build a formal, certifiable information security management system (ISMS) without the time or resources to hire an in-house specialist. They partnered with vendor Secjur and opted for its Expert-Managed service model to meet this urgent need.

Secjur's expert took responsibility for building the management system, providing professional guidance through its Digital Compliance Office platform. This allowed Circus SE to achieve its accredited certification within the deadline with an internal effort of only 0.3 FTE per week. The measurable impact was the immediate ability to compete in critical procurement processes. Secjur continues to provide ongoing support for maintenance and surveillance audits, ensuring the ISMS remains effective and providing a lasting structure for information security without the need for a dedicated full-time position.
