— Proactive Data Defence

How visibleis yourbusiness?

End-to-end cyber security for high-risk sectors. From the first audit to the alert at 3am, a UK-based SOC defends the systems your business cannot afford to lose. You won't see the breach. We will.

Section 02

Cyber threats no longer
announce their presence.

They lurk within systems, quietly siphoning value — rerouting payments, cloning credentials, reading board papers over your shoulder. You don't lose data first. You lose control.And by the time control is what you're trying to reclaim, the attacker has already decided what leaves the building and what stays behind as leverage.

01

Undetected Breaches

Intrusions operate silently for weeks before detection. By the time a breach surfaces, the attacker has mapped your network, staged data for exfiltration, and planted persistence deep enough to survive the first round of remediation. Visibility is not the end of the problem — it is the beginning of the real one.

02

Compliance Exposure

UK and EU regulators now impose penalties that exceed a decade of prevention spend. NIS2, DORA, PCI DSS 4.0 and UK GDPR carry personal liability for directors. Cyber insurers reject applicants who cannot evidence MFA, EDR and tested incident response. Non-compliance is no longer a line item — it is an existential condition.

03

Reputational Collapse

Trust, once broken, does not return. A single incident rewrites how clients, insurers, boards and regulators see you. Enterprise contracts built over a decade of relationship can be lost in a single ICO notification. The public record of a breach outlasts every press release written to contain it.

Section 03 · The System

A closed loop of
continuous defence.

Five stages, one continuous loop. Each phase feeds the next — the audit shapes the hardening, the hardening shapes the certification, the certification shapes the insurability, and the monitoring feeds back into the next audit. No gaps, no hand-offs, no blind spots between the first assessment and the 3am incident response three years later.

01

Audit

A forensic sweep of your estate — external attack surface, internal network, cloud posture, endpoint fleet, identity plane, third-party integrations. Nothing is assumed, nothing is taken on trust from your existing tooling.

Deliverables

Vulnerability register · Attack-path map · Risk heatmap · Executive brief

2–4 weeks

02

Secure

Remediation and architectural hardening prioritised by the audit. Patch campaigns, CIS-benchmarked configuration, identity segmentation, and Zero Trust controls where the environment warrants. We work alongside your IT team or take full ownership — your call.

Deliverables

Hardening runbook · Change log · Before-and-after posture report

4–12 weeks

03

Certify

The certification path your sector demands — Cyber Essentials Plus, ISO 27001, SOC 2, NIS2 readiness, DORA for financial services, PCI DSS 4.0 for payments, NHS DSP Toolkit for health. Gap analysis, evidence collection, internal audit, external audit support.

Deliverables

Gap analysis · Evidence pack · Audit-ready ISMS · External auditor liaison

3–9 months

04

Insure

Cyber insurance premiums have climbed steeply and underwriters now reject applicants who cannot evidence MFA, EDR, immutable backups, and tested incident response. We prepare your environment — and the paperwork — to satisfy the leading UK and Lloyd's of London cyber markets.

Deliverables

Underwriter evidence pack · Controls attestation · Premium-reduction report

2–6 weeks

05

Monitor

24/7/365 monitoring from our UK SOC. Managed detection and response, threat intelligence, EDR, NDR, SIEM — tuned to your threat model, not a vendor default. A named incident lead, contractual SLAs, board-ready reporting. The first call when something moves in the night.

Deliverables

24/7 SOC · Named incident lead · Monthly board report · Quarterly CISO review

Ongoing

Section 04 · Rule of Three
01

Accredited

Every methodology is mapped to recognised frameworks before we touch your environment. Penetration testing under CREST-aligned rules of engagement. Management systems aligned to ISO 27001. Controls evidenced against UK regulator expectations — not marketing promises.

02

Bespoke

No off-the-shelf playbooks. We map your actual systems, your actual threat surface, your actual regulators — then build a defence that fits only you. Two clients in the same sector never receive the same engagement, because no two estates are the same.

03

Proactive

We hunt for the intrusion you have not detected yet. Continuous threat-hunting across endpoint, network, and identity planes — not passive monitoring. The industry average dwell time is measured in weeks. We measure ours in hours.

Section 05 · High-Risk Environments

Where the cost of
a breach is measured
in decades of trust.

CyberTS protects the sectors where one incident rewrites a company's future — where IP theft, patient data loss, or payment compromise is not recoverable with a press release. Each of these environments carries a different regulator, a different attacker profile, and a different definition of catastrophic loss. We build a defence for each one individually — never a template stretched across four industries it was never designed to cover.

01

Medical & Biotech

Sensitive patient records, research IP, and regulated clinical systems under one pane of glass.

Threat Pattern

Ransomware that halts clinical trials and exfiltration of research IP — both trigger regulator notification inside 72 hours and can invalidate years of trial data.

Regulatory Scope

NHS DSP Toolkit · UK GDPR · ISO 27001 · MHRA GxP

02

Legal & Finance

Privileged client data, live deal rooms, and settlement rails that cannot tolerate downtime.

Threat Pattern

Business email compromise and M&A-phase intrusions — attackers sit inside privileged conversations for weeks before redirecting settlement wires or leaking deal intelligence.

Regulatory Scope

SRA Guidance · FCA Operational Resilience · ISO 27001 · PCI DSS 4.0

03

Defence & Government

Classified supply-chain contractors, military systems, and export-controlled technology.

Threat Pattern

Nation-state reconnaissance against tier-2 and tier-3 suppliers — the MoD's weakest link is almost never the MoD itself, it is the contractor two steps removed.

Regulatory Scope

DEFCON 658 · Cyber Essentials Plus · ISO 27001 · NATO NISP

04

Banking & Infrastructure

Payment rails, core banking systems, and the operational technology behind critical national infrastructure.

Threat Pattern

Payment-rail manipulation and DDoS-for-extortion — minutes of downtime now carry statutory reporting obligations and multi-million-pound service-credit exposure.

Regulatory Scope

DORA · PCI DSS 4.0 · NIS2 · PRA Operational Resilience

Section 06 · Commercial Value

Why CyberTS
stands apart.

Detect faster. Respond smarter. Defend stronger. Seven commitments that shape every engagement — from the first audit to the alert that wakes us at 3am three years in. Each one is a contractual promise, not a marketing line. Each one is measurable. Each one is the reason a CISO chooses us over a vendor twice our size.

  • 01
    Detect threats faster

    Hours to first alert on high-signal intrusions, against an industry mean measured in weeks. Continuous hunting, not passive dashboards.

  • 02
    Respond more intelligently

    A named incident lead on the end of a direct line — not a ticket queue. Post-incident review with forensic evidence, root cause, and a hardening plan, every time.

  • 03
    Defend with greater strength

    Layered controls — EDR, NDR, SIEM, identity segmentation, Zero Trust — tuned to your threat model. Controls that compound, so a single failure is never catastrophic.

  • 04
    Mitigate risks before they arise

    Quarterly threat modelling against your live attack surface, informed by intelligence from our SOC and public-sector advisories. Risks are ranked, budgeted, and retired on a schedule you own.

  • 05
    Protect data, IP, and systems

    UK-resident SOC. UK-based analysts. No offshoring, no follow-the-sun handoffs. Your data stays in UK jurisdiction, under UK DPA and UK GDPR — the posture your legal team expects.

  • 06
    Align with UK & EU regulations

    ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials Plus, NIS2, DORA, PCI DSS 4.0, UK GDPR — audit-ready, board-defensible, insurer-accepted. The regulatory workload moves from your team to ours.

  • 07
    Build resilience across operations

    Incident response plans, tabletop exercises, recovery playbooks — tested on a cadence, so the first time your team runs them is not during the breach. Resilience is a rehearsal, not a document.
