Questions & Answers
Is M3 a replacement for ISO 27001?
No. M3 Framework is a lightweight "stepping stone" designed for SMEs that are not yet ready for the heavy operational burden of ISO 27001 or ISO 42001. It helps you get compliant with essential regulations like GDPR and the EU AI Act effectively.
Is it free to use?
Yes, for internal use. Companies can implement M3 Framework internally at no cost. However, commercial use such as consulting, certification, or selling M3-based services requires a license. See our License page for details.
