How It Works

From first call to working roadmap

This is the typical first-month shape — whether it's the start of a retainer engagement or the full arc of a Cyber Health Check. Front-loaded by design. We don't take three months to scope and another six to deliver. Within four weeks you have assessment, quick wins, strategy, and a usable plan.

The first month of any engagement

Our engagement model is deliberately front-loaded. We don't take three months to scope and another six to deliver. Within four weeks, you have assessment, quick wins, strategy, and governance operating.

Week 1

Discovery & Rapid Assessment

Stakeholder interviews, structured posture assessment across identity, cloud, endpoints, data, and policy. Augmented by AI-driven scanning to surface gaps manual review would miss.

Week 2

Risk Register & Quick Wins

Risk prioritised by business impact — not just technical severity. We identify and execute 3–5 immediate improvements within the fortnight. Tangible progress before month-end.
