Cyber Organisational Response & Recovery
Will your organisation survive a serious cyber attack?
Cyber Advisory Practice
Providing advice on preparing for cyber crises & bolstering cyber & operational resilience.
Are you confident that your organisation can survive a serious cyber attack?
The Cyber Advisory Practice (CAP) advises customers on the reality of their cyber risks and the steps that should be taken in order to better manage them. With expert advice the CAP takes customers on a journey to cyber risk operational maturity.
Whilst most organisations already have some of the various functions of cyber risk management in place, most often they are not tied together in a risk management framework that is effectively communicated to, and governed by, enterprise leadership teams outside of IT, and the board.
The CAP engages with key stakeholders in an organisation during initial conversations to determine where an organisation sits on their operational maturity path in order to formulate a scope of immediate, medium and long term measures for improvement and validation.
Due to the constantly evolving nature of cyber risk and the ongoing leadership reporting responsibilities for governance, the CAP will propose programs of work with clearly defined milestones. Accessible reports allow customers to visualise and articulate progress along the path as required.
The journey commences with a conversation around cyber risk concerns and an outline of what can be achieved with a current state “snapshot” assessment.

Assess
Understanding an organisation’s cyber risk begins with assessing the existing risk strategy and measures already in place. Further investigation can then be undertaken to ensure there is an accurate understanding of an organisation’s cyber risks.
Improve
When there is an understanding of the gaps in an organisation’s capabilities in cyber risk management then steps towards remediation and improvement can be undertaken. This can include remediation strategy and the building of risk management plans.
Educate
Cyber risk awareness is critical for all employees. For all staff, awareness can be learning to avoid risky activity. For executives, the focus can be on cyber risks created by their teams. For board members, cyber risk awareness can include understanding of obligations and potential civil and regulatory liability. CAP education programs are tailored to improve organisational awareness.
Validate
Any plan is only as good as its last test. The assessment and improvement phases will bring to light the scenarios that can lead to the most damaging consequences. These scenarios can then be run as risk simulation exercise and the results acted upon.
“The only way to reduce the reputational, functional and financial damage caused by a cyber incident is to be prepared, be accountable and handle it well.”
