Challenge:
Our client had a requirement to support a high-profile customer in conducting an internal cybersecurity analysis using their comprehensive analytics and reporting tool.

2. Brainstorm:
For each identified domain, we developed a series of questions and statements designed to provide valuable insights into the organization’s cybersecurity culture.
3. Collaboration:
We worked closely with the client, leveraging their Human Resources expertise to identify and refine the most effective questions to use.
4. Delivery:
After ensuring all stakeholders were satisfied with the information compiled, the client’s development team finalised the tool, making it ready for deployment.
Results:
Our client successfully met their customer’s requirements, leading to an expansion of their service offerings. In addition to providing a culture-focused cybersecurity analysis, they introduced a new service specifically targeting Cyber Risk in the workplace.
