Practical AI governance, information security and ISO 27001 support

We help organisations understand and govern their use of AI, strengthen information security, and work towards ISO 27001 through practical, proportionate support.

Fixed-price services, plain-language findings, and a clear path from initial assessment through to implementation.

What we help with

Social Catalyst UK helps organisations manage the governance and risk that comes with AI, information security and the growing expectations around both.

For AI, that often means less about technical complexity and more about understanding how it is being used, who is accountable, what risks need managing, and whether the right policies, oversight and controls are in place. Our information security and ISO 27001 work provides complementary support where organisations need to strengthen their wider security arrangements.

You can start with a free assessment to understand where you stand, then decide what, if anything, you want to address next. Our paid services range from detailed assessments and practical improvement support through to implementation and more comprehensive assurance.

AI Governance

The challenge with AI isn’t the technology, it’s the people using it without guidance, oversight, or awareness of the risks they’re creating.

We help you understand your organisation’s true AI footprint and put the right governance and oversight structures in place to manage it responsibly. Free health check through to comprehensive review, plus hands-on implementation support.

ISO 27001

ISO 27001 certification requires more than documentation, it requires your people to understand, own, and live the standard. Organisations that treat it as a paperwork exercise rarely sustain it.

We support every stage of the journey, gap analysis, ISMS implementation, and ongoing internal audit, with the governance experience and technical depth the standard demands.

Info Security

Information security gaps rarely start with technology, they start with policies not embedded, habits not formed, and oversight not in place.

We offer fixed-price assessments covering governance, human factors, and technical controls, from a free initial review through to a fully evidenced comprehensive assessment and implementation support for wherever your at.
