Architecture & Engineering
Secure delivery pipelines, platform guardrails, and infrastructure patterns built with your engineers. We make sure architecture decisions stick in code, not just diagrams.
Services
Embedded security across architecture, leadership, and people
We operate as your security company—designing resilient architecture, shaping executive strategy, and giving your people the enablement to keep it alive. Every engagement is built on the same three pillars so nothing is delivered in isolation.
What you can expect
- Security that sits inside how your business ships and scales.
- Partners who deliver change with you—architecture, leadership, and people in step.
- Evidence, guardrails, and enablement that live long after the engagement.
Ready when you are
Most clients embed us long term so we can steer the programme day to day. Need a targeted assessment or architecture sprint? We’ll deliver it—complete with the playbooks and coaching your teams need to keep it running.
Three pillars, one programme
Everything we deliver sits on the same foundation.
We don’t sell isolated service lines. Architecture, leadership, and people programmes move together so every change lands in the product and with the humans running it. The three pillars from our home page remain the backbone of every engagement.
Strategy & Leadership
Fractional CISO leadership, investment narratives, and prioritisation cadences that keep executives aligned on risk, spend, and outcomes.
People & Risk Enablement
Human-centred enablement, playbooks, and operating rhythms so teams know what good looks like and keep it alive after we leave.
How we engage
Long-term partners that deliver fast wins
Most clients keep us as their internal security company. We run the programme day to day while your org grows into in-house capacity. But if you just need short sharp work, we'll run engagements that leave you better equipped than when we arrived.
Embedded security partner
Long-term programme leadership
- We function as your external security team, owning roadmaps, reporting, and ongoing delivery.
- Architecture changes, leadership cadences, and human enablement remain in lockstep—no hand-offs.
- Ideal when you want enduring capability without hiring a full in-house team yet.
Focused assessments & accelerators
Shorter engagements with a clear finish line
- We audit, stress-test, or design specific capabilities when you need rapid clarity.
- Every assessment includes practical remediation support and the enablement to run it afterwards.
- Common for pre-audit readiness, architecture reviews, or scaling a new product line.
Architecture & engineering
We build security with your engineers, not after them.
Our team has shipped product and run platforms. We embed beside your squads to codify guardrails, modernise pipelines, and improve reliability without slowing delivery.
What we design & deliver
- Platform and cloud architecture patterns with built-in identity, segmentation, and monitoring.
- Secure delivery pipelines—CI/CD hardening, automated checks, and release guardrails.
- Application security practices: design reviews, threat modelling, and code tooling tuned to your stack.
How we work with teams
- Pairing with engineers on migrations, refactors, and fixes—not just handing over tickets.
- Documentation, runbooks, and automation that teams adopt because it fits their workflow.
- Enablement sessions that explain the why behind controls, connecting human awareness with technical change.
Engineering effort always lands with people ready to support it—no surprise rollouts, no detached policies.
People & risk enablement
We grow confident teams and useful governance.
Security maturity isn’t a binder—it’s how people behave when we’re not in the room. We co-create programmes that keep ownership clear, measure risk meaningfully, and make the right behaviour the easiest behaviour.
People enablement
- Role-based training, champion networks, and simulations grounded in your product reality.
- Awareness that explains the “why” behind decisions—reinforced with office hours and drop-in support.
Risk & governance
- Risk registers, metrics, and dashboards that reflect how the business operates, not template heatmaps.
- Policies and playbooks written in your language, with owners, measures, and feedback loops to keep them fresh.
Tooling rollouts always include enablement. Risk reports always include the human follow-up. Compliance artefacts only ship once we know the teams they affect can run them without us.
Please, we're lonely
We’d love to talk
And to help nudge you towards us, here's a legitimate (and non-sarcastic) quote that gave us as much pride as it did laughter:
"I have never been so exited about Cyber Security before!"
