Challenge
A growing fintech company needed ISO 27001 certification to meet client requirements and support expansion into European markets. They had limited internal security expertise and a tight timeline.

Outcome
Achieved ISO 27001 certification on first audit attempt. The client reported that the process was "surprisingly straightforward" and they continue to work with us for annual surveillance audits.

Outcome
Achieved Cyber Essentials Plus certification and successfully won their NHS contract. The improved security controls also reduced their cyber insurance premiums by 15%.

Challenge
A top-tier law firm needed to demonstrate robust security to high-value clients while managing partner concerns about operational disruption.
Solution

Outcome
The firm now uses their security certifications as a competitive differentiator in pitches. Partner feedback highlighted the "minimal disruption" and "clear ROI" of the program.
