Cyber Resilience

Strengthening your cyber defences to support seamless digital transformation.

Embed resilience into your technology, processes, and people

Our mission is to make you resilient – to have the ability to anticipate, withstand, recover, and learn from cyber disruptions built into every stage of your organisation’s capability lifecycle. Achieving resilience isn’t a destination – it’s a continuous journey, improving your people, processes, and technology, along with constant adaptation to changing risks.

We are devoted to delivering top-tier cybersecurity services and solutions to our customers so that they can increase their maturity and operate with confidence, knowing their supply chains are secured, compliance ensured, and technological integrity intact. Our industry-leading experts are accustomed to working with organisations that have the highest cybersecurity standards and risk environments.

Building resilience

For over 25 years, we have been a strategic digital transformation partner for leading companies and governments around the world. Be it in the public sector, healthcare, or enterprise, we tackle the most pressing concerns to guarantee continuity and deliver value – at scale and with speed – to shape a better future.

Public sector

High-standard cybersecurity is key to public trust, whether you’re providing fully digital services or not. It lays the foundation for creating secure environments where citizens can engage with confidence. We help government organisations become resilient through cyber-resilient architecture, organisational capability building, and third-party risk management to avoid disruptions to services and systems and maintain the trust of their citizens.

Defence

In a time when resilience is non-discretionary, we empower the Armed Forces and Defence Ministries to maintain operational advantage through data-led transformation. We can amplify existing digital, defensive cyber, and resilience practices within defence to build capacity and protect the supply chain, industry partners, and broader national security.

Critical infrastructure

There is hardly any other area where being cyber-resilient is as essential as for critical infrastructure organisations, where a single attack could have a debilitating effect. We help our clients detect, respond to, and recover from cyber incidents and, therefore, guarantee operational continuity – secure, functioning, and resilient critical infrastructure – through regular risk assessments, threat intelligence and detection, and incident readiness and response plans.

Logistics and maritime

Logistics networks face unique challenges, from safeguarding supply chains to protecting systems that keep operations running. We help logistics and maritime organisations anticipate and recover from cyber incidents, ensuring secure and efficient services. From continuous risk assessments and incident response planning to modern cyber technology and organisational capability building, we improve the cyber resilience of our customers.

Manufacturing

OT systems face all the same threats IT systems do, but merging these two environments’ systems, processes, and people removes complexity and enables the generation of an intelligent, more secure network with increased visibility to continuously monitor and control both environments. We help our clients carry out regular cybersecurity assessments to identify vulnerabilities in hardware, software, and configurations and adopt modern cybersecurity controls to protect OT systems.

Governance, Risk, and Compliance

A Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) strategy ensures cybersecurity is aligned with business objectives, enabling organisations to manage risks effectively and meet regulatory requirements. By implementing a structured GRC framework, organisations gain clear risk insights, allowing for prioritisation, proactive decision-making, and improved threat response. Establishing robust governance models and standardising security practices enhances accountability, adaptability, and resilience. With extensive experience supporting organisations across the public and private sectors, we design and implement GRC frameworks that drive security maturity, regulatory compliance, and long-term cyber resilience.

Cyber Resilience Programme Management

Cyber resilience extends beyond compliance. It ensures organisations can anticipate, withstand, and recover from cyber incidents while maintaining operational stability. A robust cyber resilience programme brings together governance, risk management, incident response, business continuity, and disaster recovery to safeguard critical operations. Our approach focuses on proactive resilience planning, impact assessments, and adaptive response strategies to minimise disruption and financial loss. Through continuous monitoring, scenario-based testing, and organisational training, we help businesses embed resilience into their security strategy. This enables them to respond effectively to evolving threats while maintaining long-term operational security.

SOC Design and Implementation

Security Operations Centre (SOC) design and implementation involves creating a centralised function for monitoring, detecting, and responding to cyber threats. This includes developing security architectures, integrating technologies, and establishing operational processes to ensure effective threat management. With extensive experience in cybersecurity, we design and implement SOCs that align with industry best practices, enhancing threat visibility, incident response, and compliance. Our approach ensures scalable, intelligence-driven security operations tailored to organisational needs.

Security Architecture and Engineering

Effective security architecture and engineering provide the foundation for resilient, scalable, and threat-resistant systems. By embedding security into every stage of design and development, we ensure organisations adopt a Secure by Design (SbD) and DevSecOps approach, integrating security from inception rather than as an afterthought. Our expertise in Zero Trust architecture, Identity and Access Management (IAM), data protection, and infrastructure security ensures a proactive defence strategy against evolving cyber threats. We implement adaptive security controls and continuous vulnerability management to mitigate risks, enhance compliance, and build security maturity. Our approach integrates governance and risk management principles to ensure security frameworks align with business objectives while maintaining flexibility to adapt to evolving threats.

Coliseum™ Platform and Product Suite

Get the tools and infrastructure to achieve and sustain cyber resilience. Our proprietary cyber range and highly modular digital twin simulation and capacity-building platform supports the effective delivery of cyber resilience strategies – from conducting organisational capacity assessments, training, and incident simulations to the automated delivery of simulated environments and digital twins for secure software development. Evaluate your organisation’s cyber incident response plans and procedures, getting exposure to experienced and seasoned cyber incident commanders to support your organisation’s requirement to go beyond theorised scenarios to be real-world ready.

Cyber Exercises

Human collaboration under pressure is a critical yet often overlooked aspect of cyber resilience. Our tailored cyber exercises follow a “train as you fight” approach, simulating realistic and controlled high-pressure scenarios that challenge teams to respond effectively to cyber incidents. Delivered through engaging role-play and scenario-based simulations, these exercises stress-test organisational preparedness, uncover gaps in collaboration and communication, and enhance incident response capabilities. With extensive experience supporting both public and private sector organisations, we design and deliver cyber exercises that improve cyber awareness, strengthen decision-making, and build a proactive security culture.

An effective organization-wide cyber resilience strategy based on a continuous cycle of assessment-based improvements of your people, processes, and technology can result in an:

80%

reduction in cyber incident recovery time

50%

reduction in the total cost of cyber incidents
