What is Consulting?
Cyber threats evolve daily and compliance requirements grow more complex each year. Technology alone isn’t enough—you need a trusted advisor with deep policy expertise and the experience to guide you through every stage of your security journey.
Our consultants are seasoned industry professionals with years of real-world experience designing and implementing advanced data security solutions. They have Consulting expertise in Zero Trust models, Data Loss Prevention (DLP) programmes, email security architectures and web security migrations—and we remain completely tooling agnostic. This allows us to focus on what matters most: ensuring your policies, processes and controls are robust, compliant and effective.
Whether you’re starting from the ground up or are already underway, we can help you shape and refine security policies that drive the right technical outcomes, meet regulatory requirements and minimise operational risk. Working with us early in the design and build phase ensures policies and controls are embedded from day one, avoiding costly rework and creating a resilient, future-proof architecture.
We work hand-in-hand with your stakeholders to align governance, compliance and operational priorities. The result is a security strategy that is policy-led, technically sound and adaptable—protecting your organisation today and keeping it compliant and secure for tomorrow.
The advantages of
Consulting
Heading
Expertise and Best Practices
Our consultants bring specialised knowledge and hands-on experience across technologies, architectures and methodologies. They can ensure your project is designed using industry best practices, reducing errors and improving solution quality.
Heading
Tooling-Agnostic Guidance
Our independent consultants provide objective, unbiased advice on technologies and vendors, helping you select solutions that best fit your business needs rather than being influenced by a single supplier.
Heading
Risk Mitigation
Early involvement allows our consultants to identify potential technical, operational and compliance risks before they become costly problems; ensuring the project avoids delays, security gaps and compliance breaches.
Heading
Cost and Time Efficiency
By designing the project correctly from the start, our consultants help prevent rework, minimise your downtime and accelerate delivery reducing overall project costs.
Heading
Alignment with Business Goals
Our consultants ensure that technical design aligns with your strategic priorities, operational processes and regulatory requirements, creating a solution that supports both your IT and business objectives.
Heading
Knowledge Transfer and Capability Building
During design and build, our consultants provide guidance and mentoring to internal teams, building skills and enabling your organisation to maintain and scale the solution independently once the project is complete.
How to Purchase Consulting
Our goal is simple: to make it easy for you to get the expertise you need, when you need it. That’s why we offer flexible consulting options—either by purchasing a set number of days or through our Expertise-on-Demand (EOD) model.
Purchasing Consulting by Days
If your project requirements are clear and fully scoped, you can engage our consultants by the day. This can be structured as a fixed-price agreement or on a time-and-materials basis, giving you certainty in cost and delivery while ensuring our team delivers exactly what your project needs.
Purchasing Expertise-on-Demand (EOD)
For situations where requirements may evolve—or aren’t fully defined at the start of the year—our EOD offering provides
prepaid days of expertise that can be used across multiple technologies within a 12-month period. This gives you maximum flexibility to address changing business priorities, picking the support you need, exactly when you need it. EOD brings together Pre-Sales, Professional Services, Consulting, and Support into a single, streamlined agreement to help manage day-to-day activities and ad hoc demands.
You can start small, let us demonstrate value, and easily top up as your needs grow.
For customers seeking a more proactive, embedded partnership where our consultants act as an extension of your team, our Managed Services offering provides a structured, long-term approach.
