CAF alignment
Our service is aligned with NCSC guidance and supports organisations using the Cyber Assessment Framework (CAF) to manage cyber risk. By providing continuous monitoring, clear incident records and structured response, we help teams demonstrate that risks are understood, monitored and addressed as part of wider CAF self-assessment and assurance activity.
Security Posture Assessment
Government environments face constant scrutiny, making it vital to understand where vulnerabilities exist and how they are being managed. Our approach to cybersecurity for government includes a Security Posture Assessment that identifies weaknesses, reviews configurations and maps actions to recognised government and industry frameworks. This gives teams a defensible view of risk and a clear basis for prioritising improvements.
