What this actually is

Before you spend another rupee on security, it is worth knowing where you actually stand. Not against an ideal, against organisations of your size in your sector facing your regulator.

We assess capability across governance, identity, protection, detection, response and recovery, score each domain, and show you the gap between where you are and where a company like yours needs to be.

The output most clients get value from is not the score. It is the sequenced roadmap that says these four things this quarter, these six next, and here is roughly what each will cost.

What we go after

  • Capability assessment across every security domain
  • Benchmarking against sector and size peers
  • Regulatory obligation mapping
  • Control effectiveness rather than control existence
  • Team structure, skills and coverage gaps
  • Tooling overlap and spend efficiency
  • Risk register review
  • Board reporting readiness

How we run it

  1. 01

    Understand the business

    What you do, what would genuinely hurt if it stopped, and how much risk your board will carry.

  2. 02

    Assess

    People, process and technology together, because attackers do not respect the boundary between them.

  3. 03

    Benchmark and rank

    Where you sit against your peers and your regulator, with findings ranked by real exposure.

  4. 04

    Roadmap

    A sequenced plan with costs attached, so the business case writes itself.

What you receive

  • Maturity scores by domain with peer benchmark
  • Costed and sequenced improvement roadmap
  • Tooling rationalisation recommendations
  • Board-ready summary of current risk
  • Re-assessment baseline for next year

Who needs this

Organisations planning a security budget, integrating an acquisition, or facing a regulator for the first time.

How long it takes

Three to five weeks.

Standards this satisfies

  • NIST CSF
  • ISO 27001
  • CIS Controls
  • RBI
  • SEBI CSCRF

Why it matters

There is a gap between knowing you have a security problem and knowing which one to solve first. Advisory work exists to close that gap: an independent view of where the risk actually sits, expressed in terms a board can act on and a budget can be built around.

The other reason is availability. Most organisations do not need a full time security leader, but they do need someone to ask before making a decision rather than after. The cost of the wrong architecture choice, or the wrong vendor, dwarfs the cost of the conversation that would have prevented it.

Choose how you want this delivered

Most of the price difference between quotes comes down to this one choice, and it is rarely explained. Pick one to see what it covers, what it suits and what it costs you.

A defined number of days a month with a named advisor who keeps context between conversations. This is what most organisations actually need: not a large project, but someone to ask before making a decision rather than after.

Choose this when

  • Decisions arriving faster than you can hire for
  • You need continuity rather than another report
  • Board or committee reporting on a regular cycle

Effort and cost

Monthly, with a defined day allocation. Far cheaper than a hire and available immediately.

Which framework are you going for?

What we look for, and keep finding

These are the classes of problem this work exists to surface. Not every engagement finds all of them, but these are the ones that turn up often enough to be worth naming.

  • Capability that does not match the risk

    Heavy investment in one area and nothing in another, usually reflecting what a previous incident or a previous hire cared about rather than where the current exposure sits.

  • No owner for the important things

    Ask who owns third party risk, or identity, and the answer is a committee. Controls without a named owner degrade quietly and predictably.

  • Reporting that does not support a decision

    Dashboards full of counts that never answer the question a board actually asks, which is whether we are more or less exposed than last quarter and what it would cost to change that.

  • Unmanaged supplier concentration

    Several critical services resting on one provider, with no assessment of what happens if it becomes unavailable or compromised.

  • Plans that have never been tested

    Incident response and continuity documents that read well and have never been rehearsed. The first rehearsal always finds something, which is the point of having one.

Who runs your engagement

A practitioner, not a presentation

Advisory work is led by someone who has run security operations rather than only advised on them. The test we apply to our own recommendations is whether the person making them has had to live with a decision like it.

Questions we get asked

Is this just an interview exercise?

No. We interview, but we also review configuration, sample evidence and test whether the controls people describe actually operate. Assessments based only on what people tell you are consistently too optimistic.

Will you recommend your own services?

Where they fit, and we will say so plainly. The roadmap also routinely includes work we do not sell, because pretending otherwise would make the assessment worthless.
