About Us
Boutique advisory firm specializing in ICT and cybersecurity
A Principal-Led Advisory Model
With over 20 years of experience in technology risk and financial services, our boutique firm provides specialized ICT and cybersecurity advisory for highly regulated environments. We operate on a direct-engagement model, deliberately avoiding the leveraged staffing structures common in traditional consultancies. This ensures that every mandate is executed with senior-level expertise, providing our clients with technical depth and hands-on precision from start to finish.
Pragmatic Risk Management
We believe that digital resilience is built on operational reality rather than theoretical frameworks. Our firm works closely with clients to assess internal controls, identify vulnerabilities, and implement risk management strategies that are both robust and practical. By focusing on technical substance, we enable organizations to manage technology risks with the accuracy required for long-term operational continuity.
Sovereign AI and Governance
We support the secure adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) with a focus on sovereign and on-premises deployments. This approach ensures that organizations leverage advanced automation while maintaining data sovereignty and adhering to the EU AI Act. By prioritizing technical substance, we manage the associated technology risks with the precision required for highly regulated environments.
Navigating the Regulatory Landscape
In the current supervisory climate, compliance is an essential pillar of stability. We bridge the gap between complex legal mandates - such as DORA and NIS2 - and audit-ready implementation. Our focus is on ensuring that institutional governance is supported by technical excellence, specifically as regulators move from initial implementation toward active supervisory reviews and annual resilience testing.
