An Incident Management Framework is a structured approach used by organisations to detect, respond to, and resolve unexpected events or incidents that disrupt normal operations. Its purpose is to minimise the impact of incidents, restore services quickly, and prevent future issues. The framework typically includes clear processes, defined roles, communication plans, and steps for learning…

Monitoring and Alerting
Monitoring and alerting are practices used to track the health and performance of systems, applications, or services. Monitoring involves collecting data on things like system usage, errors, or response times, providing insights into how things are working. Alerting uses this data to notify people when something unusual or wrong happens, so they can fix problems…
Incident Response
Incident response is the organised approach a company or team takes to address and manage the aftermath of a security breach or cyberattack. The goal is to handle the situation so that damage is limited and recovery can begin as quickly as possible. Effective incident response includes preparing for threats, detecting incidents, containing the impact,…
Penetration Testing as a Service
Penetration Testing as a Service is a cloud-based or subscription service where security professionals test computer systems, networks or applications for vulnerabilities. Instead of hiring a team for a one-off test, organisations can subscribe to regular and on-demand testing. This helps businesses find and fix security issues before attackers can exploit them.
Fraud Detection
Fraud detection is the process of identifying activities that are intended to deceive or cheat, especially for financial gain. It involves monitoring transactions, behaviours, or data to spot signs of suspicious or unauthorised actions. By catching fraudulent actions early, organisations can prevent losses and protect customers.
Cybersecurity Training
Cybersecurity training teaches people how to recognise and deal with online threats such as phishing, malware, and data breaches. It helps staff understand safe ways to use computers, emails, and the internet at work or at home. The goal is to reduce mistakes that could lead to security problems and to make everyone more aware…
Vulnerability Management
Vulnerability management is the process of identifying, assessing, and addressing security weaknesses in computer systems, software, and networks. It involves regularly scanning for vulnerabilities, prioritising them based on risk, and taking steps to fix or reduce the risks they pose. This ongoing cycle helps organisations reduce their chances of being attacked through known security gaps.
Threat Detection
Threat detection is the process of identifying activities or events that could harm computer systems, networks, or data. It involves monitoring for unusual behaviour, suspicious files, or unauthorised access that may indicate a security issue. The aim is to spot potential threats early so they can be dealt with before causing damage.
Proactive Threat Mitigation
Proactive threat mitigation refers to the practice of identifying and addressing potential security risks before they can cause harm. It involves anticipating threats and taking steps to prevent them instead of only reacting after an incident has occurred. This approach helps organisations reduce the chances of data breaches, cyber attacks, and other security issues by…
Security Event Correlation
Security event correlation is the process of analysing and connecting multiple security alerts or events from different sources to identify potential threats or attacks. It helps security teams filter out harmless activity and focus on incidents that may indicate a real security problem. By linking related events, organisations can detect patterns that would be missed…
