Cyber Security

Defensive security and monitoring

Stand up the monitoring, readiness and controls that catch what matters and act on it. We build defence around how attacks actually unfold, rather than around alert volume.

In short

Be ready, and notice when something is wrong

Defensive security is the day to day work of reducing your exposure, watching for trouble and being ready to respond. We help you improve your controls, raise your monitoring to a useful standard, and prepare your people so that when something happens you act quickly and calmly.

Who it is for

Where this helps most

Growing security teams

Teams who need to lift their monitoring and readiness without buying complexity they cannot run.

Cloud first organisations

Businesses that need a clear view of their cloud security posture as they scale.

Leaders after an incident

Organisations who want to be better prepared the next time, and to reduce the chance of it.

What we help with

How Cipher7 helps

Security monitoring

Improving detection and triage so the signals that matter are seen and acted on.

Plans, playbooks and rehearsals so your team responds with confidence under pressure.

Vulnerability management

A steady process for finding, prioritising and fixing weaknesses over time.

Control improvement

Strengthening the controls across endpoints, identity, email and cloud.

Practical guidance and training that helps people make safer choices.

Cloud security posture

A clear view of cloud configuration and how to harden it sensibly.

Defensive operating model

Help shaping how your security function runs day to day.

Operational technology security

Advisory and risk assessment support for operational and industrial environments, with care for safety and uptime.

We describe operational technology security as advisory and risk assessment support. We do not overstate delivery depth in industrial environments unless that has been verified for a given engagement.
