Security Strategy
Understand the cyber risks facing your organization and develop a cyber security strategy that aligns with your business goals and risk tolerance.
Though exposure to cyber risk is unavoidable, it is also manageable.
A well-designed and effectively executed security strategy that addresses relevant threats to your organization enables it to remain resilient and manage cyber risk while evolving. Whether that evolution involves adopting innovative new technology, entering new markets, or establishing new partnerships with other organizations, we can help you build the strategy you need.
What can you achieve?
Strategically build resilience
Develop goals and ways of working that improve your cyber resilience and operational resilience.
Measure and improve cyber security
Benchmark your security posture and identify capability gaps that increase your exposure to cyber risk.
Take control
Evaluate your cyber security posture and identify capability gaps that increase your exposure to cyber risk.
Quantify improvement
Measure and find effective ways to communicate reductions in cyber risk.
Our approach
Risk is an integral part of doing business. The success of your organization inevitably makes it attractive to attackers. By benchmarking your cyber security posture, you can uncover the risks that matter most—those that impact the business’s ability to operate—and shape your strategy around reducing them.
Our consultancy is built to do exactly this, working as an extension of your team to develop and implement a security strategy that accounts for people, process, and technology. We can help guide you to make the changes necessary to align your long-term business strategy and execute the strategy roadmap.
Cyber security maturity assessment
Score the “maturity” of controls across your organization to uncover gaps in your cyber security. Then, create an improvement roadmap to deliver improvements right across the business and regularly re-assess.
Target Operating Model development
Create the blueprint for your security operations, starting with the definition of roles, responsibilities, outcomes, and best practice. Align business stakeholders with its purpose by clearly communicating the value of the security service catalogue it offers. Formalize your processes, perform a gap analysis, and more. We can even help you build teams from scratch.
Attack Path Mapping
Identify and map the paths an attacker could legitimately take to reach your organization’s critical assets. Highlight existing prevention and detection measures that work and find solutions where there’s weakness.
Security strategy review and program design
Ensure that your Internal Security Management System (ISMS) meets internal and external business and compliance requirements. We can also help organizations to structure their cyber security roadmap to achieve specific business outcomes or generate key improvements over time.
