Cyber Security Services

Threats to cyber security are persistent and constantly evolving. With an ever-growing number of targeted cyber-attacks on critical infrastructure, online commerce and the private sector, protecting your business from risk and keeping corporate data safe has never been more critical.  Some organisations are underprepared to deal effectively with potential security breaches with their security teams finding that their work has become a race against the attackers.  The private sector is more exposed to cybersecurity threats than it needs to be, given the best practices that are available today.  At Cyber Smart Consulting we offer a range of flexible services that not only help secure your company’s Information Systems but can help improve your business’s value.  Our highly qualified & experienced team can deliver security capability at all levels of your organisation and are on hand to help ensure that your projects deliver solutions that are appropriately aligned to your cyber security risk position and satisfy your regulatory compliance requirements.

Our Certified Cyber Professionals (CCP) Consultants

If you are delivering a technology holding sensitive information you will almost certainly be required to ensure the system meets National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) guidelines & other standards used by Government Departments & Critical National Infrastructure (CNI) Organisations. If you do not address this up-front, the project can suffer technical debt resulting in cost over-runs and reduction in productivity, potentially damaging reputations too.

We ensure that our Consultants are certified by the NCSC’s Certified Cyber Professional (CCP) Scheme. Many of our Consultants also hold other certifications, but the CCP Scheme has evolved and improved over a long time and has the most rigorous route for certification, which means that we can offer the quality of expertise and service that cannot be matched by volume employers.

Service Benefits

Our Certified Cyber Professionals have a wealth of experience in understanding the risks to government systems and identifying appropriate controls to mitigate those risks. We have been successfully augmenting Project Delivery Teams and delivering a broad range of cyber security services to Government and its suppliers since our inception in 2012. We reduce the dreaded project risks of time and cost over-run, and our consultants have strong relationships with Accreditors – we have number of consultants who were previously in similar roles which gives us a good understanding of deliverable expectations, & security concerns. If your project needs to meet specific government cyber security standards, we can help you achieve this goal first time.

Many people assume that being a cyber security professional is all about writing documents but that is only a small aspect of the job. Our consultants bring a real understanding of information risks and how to mitigate them in the most efficient way. Resources are always in short supply, even more so in the current economic climate and should only be allocated to reduce identified risks, not just because a standard or best practice says so. Security controls cost money, so you need to be assured of their necessity and their effectiveness.
