Practice 02 · Cybersecurity Consulting

From security findings to fixes.

For security leaders whose vulnerability backlog keeps growing, whose tools don't work together, or who are deciding what to buy next, and for security vendors that need senior product leadership.

Product leadership across vulnerability remediation, endpoint agents, patch compliance and the connector ecosystem linking a security platform to ITSM, ticketing and patch-delivery systems.

Where Programmes Stall

Three reasons security
programmes fall behind.

01The backlog is noise.
Scanners find far more than teams can fix. Without risk-based prioritisation, effort goes into the ticket count instead of the exposure that matters.
02The tools don’t talk to each other.
Findings live in one tool, tickets in another and patches in a third. Every manual handoff adds delay, and every weak integration adds risk.
03Tools are bought on checklists.
Feature comparisons hide the real costs: per-asset pricing at scale, integration effort and lock-in. They show up at renewal.
The Approach

Find. Prioritise.
Fix. Prove.

01
Find

Get an accurate picture of assets, exposure and how findings flow today.

02
Prioritise

Rank by real risk and business impact, not by raw severity counts.

03
Fix

Build remediation workflows that run through the tools teams already use.

04
Prove

Measure exposure reduction and SLA performance so leadership sees progress.

Cybersecurity Services

Four ways I help
with cybersecurity.

01
Vulnerability & Remediation Strategy
Close The Gap Between Finding Risk And Fixing It

Most organisations find far more vulnerabilities than they can fix, and the backlog becomes noise. Drawing on product leadership in vulnerability management and patch compliance at two enterprise security vendors, I help teams move to risk-based prioritisation and remediation workflows that run through the tools they already use.

What We Cover
  • Risk-Based Prioritisation
  • Patch & Remediation Workflows
  • ITSM & Change-Management Integration
  • Endpoint Agent Strategy
  • SLA & Exception Management
  • Remediation Metrics
Deliverables
  • Programme Maturity Assessment
  • Target Remediation Workflow
  • Metrics & Reporting Model
  • 90-Day Improvement Plan
OutcomeA remediation programme that shrinks real exposure, not just the ticket count.
02
Security Integration Architecture
Make Your Security Stack Work As One System

Security value is lost in the seams between tools. I owned the connector ecosystem behind the threat management and remediation products of an enterprise security platform, and I help teams design integrations between scanners, EDR/XDR, SIEM and ITSM that are secure by design, covering authentication, webhook signing, rate limits, schema versioning and data residency.

Get Started →
What We Cover
  • SIEM / EDR / XDR / ITSM Integration
  • Multi-Tenant OAuth & Secrets
  • Webhook Signing, Retries & Rate Limits
  • Payload Schemas & Versioning
  • PII & Data-Residency Exposure
  • Connector Ecosystem Design
Deliverables
  • Integration Architecture Review
  • Security Requirements for Connectors
  • Data-Flow & Residency Map
  • Prioritised Fix List
OutcomeIntegrations that move security data reliably without becoming the weakest link.
03
Security Tool & Vendor Evaluation
Buy The Right Tools At A Cost That Holds At Scale

Security tool decisions are usually made on feature checklists and regretted at renewal. I run structured evaluations that model cost per user and per asset against the outcomes you need, and flag integration and lock-in risk before you sign.

Get Started →
What We Cover
  • Requirements & Use-Case Definition
  • Vendor Shortlisting & Scoring
  • Total Cost at Scale
  • Integration & Lock-In Risk
  • Tool Consolidation
  • Renewal Review
Deliverables
  • Evaluation Scorecard
  • Cost Model
  • Recommendation Memo
  • Implementation Considerations
OutcomeDefensible security tool decisions with costs you understand before you sign.
04
Security Product Strategy
Fractional Product Leadership For Security Vendors

For cybersecurity vendors that need senior product leadership without a full-time Chief Product Officer. Roadmap, platform and integration strategy, pricing and go-to-market, from someone who has owned security products with an $86M renewal target.

Get Started →
What We Cover
  • Security Product Roadmap
  • Platform & Integration Strategy
  • Competitive Positioning
  • Pricing & Packaging
  • Go-to-Market & Sales Enablement
  • Customer Retention
Deliverables
  • Product Strategy Blueprint
  • Executive Roadmap
  • Competitive Landscape
  • GTM Plan
OutcomeA security product strategy aligned to customer risk, revenue and differentiation.
