Key Challenges Addressed
For organisations in government, the wider public sector and critical national infrastructure, it is challenging to find suitably accredited and experienced consultants that can deliver cyber security projects at scale. This can be problematic given that these organisations may lack the technical expertise and resources necessary to ensure security is embedded throughout their operations.
Even with existing certified individuals, it is often challenging to find individuals and companies with vast expertise across the technical or unique environments such as multiple private clouds, hybrid cloud, DevOps environments and operational technology. This is where Bridewell’s expertise is applied to enable clients to achieve effective and successful outcomes.
Without access to the appropriate skills and capabilities, businesses often have an incomplete understanding of their cyber security posture, risk mitigation, and the potential impact a security incident could have on their operations. This makes it difficult to maximise the value of their cyber security investment, conduct risk assessments, and ensure they achieve compliance with relevant regulatory frameworks. Utilising skilled and experienced consultants enables a business to achieve it’s goals effectively and on the first attempt, often in support of achieving strategic business objectives or to fulfil compliance requirements.
