Fixed-scope assessments
A defined scope, timeline and report. Best for testing, reviews and readiness work.
Security, designed in.
Security decided at the drawing board costs less, and holds longer, than security added after launch.
Many weaknesses are designed into a system long before any code is written: who can reach what, where keys are kept, how identities are trusted. We help design those decisions correctly from the start, or correct them in systems that already run.
What we deliver
- Security architecture
- Zero-trust access
- Identity design
- Secure cloud landing zones for public and UAE sovereign clouds
What you receive
- Target architecture
- Diagrams and decisions for networks, identities, data flows and keys.
- Control set
- The security controls each part of the system needs, mapped to the standards you must meet.
- Landing zone
- A secure cloud foundation, configured and documented, for public or UAE sovereign clouds.
- Implementation guidance
- A phased plan your engineers, or ours, can follow.
How an engagement runs
- Scope
- We agree what is in and out of scope, the rules of engagement and who to call if something critical is found.
- Prepare
- Access, accounts and test windows are arranged so the work does not disrupt your operations.
- Deliver
- The assessment, design or readiness work itself, with progress updates at agreed points.
- Report
- Every engagement ends with an executive summary and a prioritised remediation plan.
- Verify
- Once fixes are made, we re-test or review them and confirm what has been closed.
How we engage
Managed security retainers
Ongoing monitoring, vulnerability management and advice, delivered with Kytheos.
Retained incident response
Agreed response arrangements in place before you need them.
Concessional SME packages
Assessments and awareness training sized for small and mid-sized businesses.
Questions clients ask
Can you review an architecture that is already live?
Yes. We assess the current design, identify the gaps and plan changes that can be made without rebuilding.
Do you work with UAE sovereign cloud providers?
Yes. Landing zones can be designed for public cloud or for UAE sovereign cloud environments.
Begin with an assessment.
Our work follows recognised frameworks, including OWASP, NIST CSF and MITRE ATT&CK. Every engagement ends with an executive summary and a prioritised remediation plan.
