This is highly influenced by the size of the company. When we had about 250 IT employees in a 4,000 person company in 10 countries it probably took 1 FTE spread across a dozen people

When we were acquired into a 130k employee company with 2,000 IT employees and way more outsourced services it was probably 10 FTE if you included all the iterations that we did from the start of the process in September until final approval in late January

Looking to benchmark. If you are in-process of pursuing the ISO 42001 or have obtained it, how have you measured the business value?

Do you have a lock out policy for system accounts? If so, how many attempts do you have it set too? 

Have you considered not having a lock out policy where accounts are vaulted / rotated & standing access is removed?

We’re using Nextcloud for most of our data storage and collaboration, and Microsoft 365 E3 for email and productivity. As we work toward compliance with the NCA’s Data Cybersecurity Controls, we’d like your help assessing:
• What security capabilities in Nextcloud (e.g., access control, encryption, logging, watermarking, DLP) support DCC compliance?
• Where Microsoft 365 E3 can help fill any gaps—especially for classification, watermarking, DLP, and audit/logging?
• Any recommended Nextcloud apps or configurations that can accelerate compliance?
We’re working under tight timelines, so a prioritized list of quick wins and a roadmap for deeper integrations would be very helpful.
