Our Approach

The adopted approach is unique for each project. However, at a high level, work undergoes the following phases:

In the first stage of the engagement, we engage in detailed discussions with you to fully understand your objectives and desired outcomes. If required, we can thoroughly assess your existing security infrastructure, policies, processes, and technologies to identify areas that require attention. Collaboratively, we define the project’s scope and establish clear deliverables to be achieved.

In this phase, we analyse the problem in the context of your organisation to determine the best course of action. This can take the form of a comprehensive risk assessment to identify potential vulnerabilities, threats, and risks specific to your environment and industry. We may also conduct a gap analysis, comparing your current security measures against industry standards, best practices, and regulatory requirements. Based on our findings, we develop a tailored strategy to achieve your desired state.

Our team will recommend and help implement a solution to achieve your desired state based on our findings and the agreed steps forward. This solution often spans people, processes and technology, with our team able to manage every stage to ensure we achieve what was agreed on, on time.

Depending on what changes have been made, our team will collaboratively test the solution to ensure it meets the organisation’s objectives. Thorough assessments and simulations are conducted to ensure its functionality, interoperability, and resilience. Steps such as penetration testing may be utilised with comprehensive test scenarios to validate the system’s performance and identify any potential risks or gaps in security.

We don’t believe that report delivery marks the end of the engagement; in fact, it’s just the beginning for us. We’re in every client relationship for the long haul, providing ongoing support to ensure that issues are robustly addressed in line with your organisation’s requirements.
