Cyber and AI risk, translated into decisions
Four ways we work with boards and executive teams, from a single briefing to standing in as your CISO. Every engagement starts with what your business actually values, not a framework checklist.
Board & executive cyber and AI risk briefings
A working conversation with your board, run by people who have sat on the other side of the table.
Book a briefing→The briefing
- 90-minute interactive session for boards and executive teams, facilitated by two former Group CISOs
- Cyber threat landscape, AI risk and regulatory expectations — a working conversation, not a lecture
Tailored to your board
- Content customised to your industry, operating environment and current board priorities
- Pre-session planning workshop with your CISO or cyber lead
Practical takeaways
- A current, practitioner-grade threat picture and a governance framework usable at the next board meeting
- The specific questions to ask management that regulators, investors and insurers expect
Beyond the session
- Executive takeaway paper and tailored board briefing pack
- Board maturity survey, self-paced governance course and 30-day follow-up Q&A
Assess your cyber and AI risk
Where you actually stand — against credible threats, your regulatory obligations and a maturity scale of one to five.
Scope an assessment→Threat and risk assessment
- External cyber and AI threat assessment based on credible scenarios — AI-enabled phishing, deepfake fraud, automated attacks — informed by strategic threat intelligence
- Identification of critical information and AI assets, and the potential business impact of a cyber or AI-related event
Regulatory compliance
- Working with your legal and compliance team, establish your regulatory and external obligations and assess current compliance
- Develop a strategy to address any gaps
Cyber and AI maturity
- Detailed assessment of existing people, process and technology capability, including AI governance maturity and who owns AI risk
- Practical recommendations to rapidly build capability and mitigate risk
Technical and AI testing
- External attack surface assessment, deep and dark web scanning
- Web application security assessment, penetration testing and adversarial AI red teaming
Define your cyber and AI strategy and roadmap
A strategy your executives can read, your board can approve and your finance team can fund.
Talk through your roadmap→Cyber and AI security strategy
A business aligned cyber and AI security strategy that senior executives can understand and that drives results.
Cyber and AI programme roadmap
A strategic roadmap to build cyber and AI resilience capability and mitigate risk.
Business case and budget
Budgets, business cases and capex approvals for cyber and AI investment.
Capability development plan
Detailed plans across governance, people, process, technology, AI oversight and assurance.
Build your cyber and AI resilience capability
Turning the roadmap into governance that decides, programmes that land and people who can run them.
Start building→Governance, risk and compliance
- A comprehensive, agile and cost-effective governance framework covering IT, cyber and AI risk, with clear decision rights
- Pragmatic cyber and AI use policies that translate board approved risk appetite into day-to-day process
Programme management
- Programme planning and resourcing across cyber and AI initiatives
- Strategic programme management, progress reporting, risk and issue management
Strategic sourcing
- Streamline the resource intensive process of selecting, sourcing and engaging cyber security and AI vendors, so you onboard quickly while managing supply chain risk
Recruitment and skills
- Find the right cyber and AI security people at lower cost and higher success rates than traditional recruiting
- Assess your team’s capability — including AI literacy and AI security skills — and close the gaps
A CISO for the days you actually need one
Executive-level cyber and AI risk leadership at a fraction of the cost of a full-time hire — scaled up when you are running a programme, and back down when you are not.
Project based
Professional consulting services on a project by project basis — the traditional model, where that is genuinely the right fit.
vCISO on demand
A part-time CISO providing coaching, advice and support when you need senior judgement at short notice, including on AI adoption decisions.
vCISO as a service
A dedicated part-time CISO who joins your management team, owns the cyber and AI risk agenda, and carries the accountability with you.
Co-sourced or outsourced
Outsource part or all of the management of your security programme and function, including AI governance and oversight.
Know you’re ready. Embrace AI with confidence.
Whether you need a board briefing, a strategy you can defend, or a CISO for the days you actually need one.
