Case Studies

Proven Results Across Every Sector

Real-world outcomes from our engagements with the UK's most critical organisations.

🏦

Major UK Retail Bank

Financial Services · SentinelXDR, ClearSIEM, SOC as a Service

Challenge

Following a near-miss ransomware incident, the Group CISO needed to transform security posture within 12 months to satisfy PRA requirements and avoid a potential £50M regulatory fine. The bank had no centralised threat detection capability and relied on a legacy SIEM that hadn't been tuned in three years.

Solution

Deployed SentinelXDR across 18,000 endpoints, integrated ClearSIEM with 120+ data sources, and transitioned to our 24/7 SOC as a Service within 90 days. Followed by a full CBEST-aligned red team assessment to validate the new defensive posture.

NHS Trust, North West England

Healthcare · Incident Response, ShieldEDR, VaultIAM, GRC & Compliance

Challenge

Ransomware took clinical systems offline for 11 days, impacting patient care across three hospital sites. The trust needed immediate IR support and a long-term security transformation programme ahead of an upcoming CQC inspection.

Solution

Contained the breach and restored all critical clinical systems within 72 hours. Delivered a 12-month transformation including ShieldEDR deployment across 6,000 endpoints, VaultIAM rollout to eliminate shared credentials, and Cyber Essentials Plus certification.

Our Values

What We Stand For

Mission First

Every engagement starts with understanding the threat to your organisation specifically — not deploying a generic framework and moving on. Your risk is our problem to solve.

02

Technical Excellence

Our teams hold more CREST, GIAC and ISC² certifications per capita than any UK competitor. We invest 15% of revenue in R&D and require 80 hours of CPD from every consultant annually.

03

Radical Transparency

We tell clients what they need to hear, not what they want to hear. Our findings are written in plain English for boards, with full technical detail for the teams who need to fix things.
