In addition to its UK business, the Group has operations in the EU and US.

Our history

The Group’s founding company, IT Governance Ltd, was established in 2002 by Alan Calder. The company’s early days were defined by the demand for expertise in implementing ISMSs (information security management systems) – still a relatively new field in 2005.

Indeed, Alan and his fellow director, Steve Watkins, were the first people in the UK to successfully implement an ISMS compliant with BS 7799 (the precursor to ISO 27001). In 2018, following a reorganisation, a new company, GRC International Group PLC, became the holding company for the Group.
