Nervous about cyber? We got you.
People often feel about cybersecurity like they did maths at school. If it's not your thing, it feels precarious and unknown. That's where we come in.
Whether it's your board, senior leaders, managers or new starters, we can help you build secure thinking into your everyday so it's second nature, not an extra burden or a chore to be completed.
We can help you to:
Reduce the level of risk your business faces
Support your people to understand how they can protect themselves at home and at work
Make your processes resilient to both prevent and recover from cyber attacks
Help senior leaders understand their responsibilities and how they can act upon them
Identify actions required to meet standards such as Cyber Essentials
People before shiny boxes
People are more important to your success than any shiny new box of tricks. Let us help maximise your existing capabilities first before investing in any new tools or tech.
Listen and learn first
Your challenges are unique to you and your organisation. Tell us your pain points first, then we'll begin. Expect practical next steps which are tailored, targeted and effective.
Not just cookie cutter solutions.
Cybersecurity is not always about stopping sophisticated, devious opponents. Many risks can be mitigated by straightforward actions, whatever your technical ability.
Let us show you how.
Clarity, not dumbing down
Here's how we do it.
Where does this approach come from?
My career has been driven by one question: "But why do we do it that way?"
Bringing complex ideas to life, then making them real and accessible is what makes me tick. Build Secure Thinking is all about supporting organisations in their security journey, meeting you where you are and aligning with your organisational needs.
I've worked for some of the biggest names in tech, consulting, science and finance over the last 25 years, from program management to comms to technical writing before settling on information security. I love how it brings together my experience as well as my study in organisational psychology and behaviour, all of which informs my consultancy practice.
