Discuss your security posture

When our cybersecurity expertise is the right lever

Best suited for organisations that need senior security thinking paired with practical delivery capacity.

You need to turn fragmented efforts into a coherent program

Security work is happening across teams, but you lack an integrated strategy, architecture, and roadmap.

You are scaling cloud and data initiatives quickly

Cloud migrations, new data platforms, or AI workloads are outpacing your current security capabilities.

You face increasing regulatory or customer pressure

Regulators, auditors, or enterprise customers are raising the bar on security controls and evidence.

You want to modernise legacy security architecture

VPN-centric, perimeter-based models no longer match your distributed workforce and SaaS footprint.

You lack senior security leadership or capacity

You need CISO-level guidance and experienced engineers but are not ready or able to hire a full team.

You must prove ROI on security investments

You want a risk-based plan that ties security spend to measurable reductions in exposure and downtime.

Example engagements

Where our cybersecurity teams typically engage

Financial services

Enterprise security posture assessment and roadmap

Performed an end-to-end security posture review across cloud, on-prem, and SaaS. Mapped findings to business-critical processes, quantified risk, and delivered a 24‑month remediation roadmap with prioritised initiatives, budget estimates, and target state architecture.

Retail & eCommerce

Cloud security architecture for multi-region expansion

Designed a secure landing zone and reference architecture for a multi-cloud environment. Implemented identity, network segmentation, secrets management, and logging standards to support rapid product launches in new regions while maintaining compliance.

Technology

Zero trust access model for distributed workforce

Replaced legacy VPN-based access with a zero trust model. Introduced strong identity, device posture checks, and least-privilege access controls. Reduced lateral movement risk and improved user experience for remote and third-party users.

Healthcare

Security hardening for data platforms and AI workloads

Reviewed data platform and AI pipeline security, including PHI handling. Implemented data classification, encryption, access controls, and monitoring across data lakes, ML environments, and APIs to meet regulatory and internal audit requirements.

Manufacturing

Incident response readiness and playbook implementation

Assessed incident response maturity, defined RACI, and created playbooks for ransomware, insider threat, and third-party breaches. Ran tabletop exercises with executives and technical teams, and integrated runbooks into existing ITSM tooling.

Our approach

From point-in-time fixes to a sustainable security capability

We combine senior security leadership with hands-on engineering to build a security posture that is realistic, enforceable, and measurable.

Discover your risk landscape and constraints

Engage stakeholders across business, technology, and compliance to understand critical assets, threat profile, regulatory obligations, and current controls. Review architecture, policies, and incident history to identify systemic gaps.

Define target state and prioritised roadmap

Translate findings into a target security architecture and operating model. Prioritise initiatives by risk reduction, business impact, and implementation effort, with clear milestones, ownership, and investment levels.

Design and implement security controls

Design pragmatic controls across identity, network, data, application, and endpoint security. Work alongside your teams to configure tooling, integrate with existing platforms, and automate where it adds resilience and reduces toil.

Embed security into delivery and operations

Integrate security into SDLC, DevOps, and change management. Establish secure-by-default patterns, guardrails, and CI/CD checks so new products and services inherit strong security without slowing delivery.

Enable monitoring, response, and continuous improvement

Stand up or enhance detection and response capabilities, playbooks, and runbooks. Define metrics, reporting, and governance so leadership has clear visibility into risk, coverage, and progress over time.

Business Outcomes

Clear view of security risk aligned to business priorities
Actionable roadmap with costed, prioritised initiatives
Hardened architecture across cloud, data, and applications
Security embedded into delivery processes and tooling
Improved incident readiness and executive visibility
