Make confident cyber decisions in the boardroom
We work with organisations where cyber risk is discussed at the board level and decisions carry real accountability.
Where cyber decisions break down
Cyber risk is rarely unclear because of missing information.
More often, decisions stall or fail because what matters is not agreed upon, ownership is unclear, and trade-offs remain unspoken.
Decision anchors:
- What matters – Clarity on what is material to the organisation, and what is not.
- Clear ownership – Named accountability for decisions and the risks they carry.
- Honest trade-offs – Explicit choices between competing priorities, costs, and exposures.
How we work
We work with boards and senior executives to develop interactions that lead to definable cyber risk choices.
This includes strengthening how boards question cyber risk and improving how executives frame issues in a form that the board can decide on.
We work with teams or individuals that shape cyber risk decisions in the boardroom.
Clear outcomes:
- Sharpen board questions
We help NEDs ask the questions that surface material risk, assumptions, and trade-offs.
- Frame cyber risk
We help management present cyber issues in a form that the board can decide on.
- Clarify ownership
Decisions are anchored to named owners, not committees or functions.
- Support judgment
Board and management teams are supported on how to make choices they can stand behind under scrutiny.
Who we work with
We work with organisations where cyber risk is discussed at the board level and decisions carry real accountability.
It is most relevant where confidence depends on judgment, not just assurance.
Our clients are:
- Non-Executive Directors with direct accountability for cyber risk
- Senior executives responsible for how cyber issues are framed
- Organisations operating under regulatory or investor scrutiny
Our clients are not:
- Organisations looking for cyber tooling or implementation.
- Teams seeking compliance comfort rather than challenge.
- Situations where decisions have already been made.
Our work with executives
We work with CISOs and senior executives who want boards to engage confidently with cyber risk.
Our focus is decision quality. We strengthen how boards and executives clarify what matters, establish ownership, and surface trade-offs on cyber risk.
We work one-to-one with executives or jointly with boards, depending on where clarity is needed.
Our work with Chairs & NEDs
We work with Chairs and boards at the point where cyber risk becomes a matter of judgment.
Our focus is on strengthening how boards question risk, test assumptions, and make decisions they can stand behind.
We work with boards collectively, or with individual Chairs and NEDs, depending on where confidence needs to be built.
Some notes for decision-makers:
What we bring
Experience that stands up to scrutiny
Our work sits at the intersection of board governance, cyber risk, and regulatory scrutiny.
We have worked with boards and senior executives in environments where decisions are tested by incidents, regulators, and investors beyond assurance frameworks.
Our experience includes:
- Board and committee-level cyber risk discussions.
- Work under FCA, PRA, and operational resilience scrutiny.
- Post-incident reviews and decision retrospectives.
- Supporting Chairs, NEDs, and executives ahead of critical decisions.
