Our Approach

Vetting and clearance: Internal employees are vetted, while client-side roles need verification.

Understanding the level of access required for each person ensures security.

Identifying client personnel: Ensuring those communicating with us are legitimate and authorised to engage in secure discussions.

Insider risk: Protecting against threats posed by compromised or unauthorised employees.

Security briefings vs training: Briefings are client-specific; training is a broader, proactive measure to instil security awareness.

Roles and responsibilities: Clarity on internal vs external responsibilities within a security framework.

Trust and relationship-building: SecureSense adds an additional layer of validation to ensure ongoing trust and confidence.

Continuous security testing: Ensuring security is maintained throughout all project phases.

Holistic approach: Assurance is embedded at every stage rather than an isolated activity.

Compliance verification: Checking that security measures align with relevant regulations.

Security validation: Automated and manual assessments to ensure effectiveness.

Tooling approvals: Defining which tools and software can be used securely for projects.

Secure communications: Ensuring platforms like Teams, Zoom, and Slack meet security requirements.

Application security: Using tools such as Qualys and Snyk to evaluate software vulnerabilities.

Internal vs client tooling: Establishing clear guidelines for internal use versus what is permitted by clients.

Secure project management: Managing access control within platforms like Jira and Monday.com.

Data encryption: Protection for data in transit and at rest.

Data classification: Assigning security levels based on sensitivity and compliance needs.

Secure access policies: Defining who can access what data and under what conditions.

Threat modelling: Identifying potential risks before they become vulnerabilities.

Operational security standards: SecureSense operates as an ongoing framework rather than a one-time setup.

Onboarding processes: Secure security practices are introduced at the start of client relationships.

Incident response planning: Establishing predefined actions for security breaches.

Documentation and auditing: Ensuring a detailed record of security measures and decisions.

Regulatory adherence: Ensuring compliance with GDPR, ISO 27001, and other relevant standards.

Contracts and agreements: Formalising security commitments in client engagements.

Clearances and permissions: Managing levels of authorisation within both internal and client-side teams.

Security frameworks: Establishing documented protocols for maintaining compliance.

Embedding security from the outset: SecureSense integrates security considerations into all design and development phases.

Secure UX/UI practices: Designing digital solutions with security at their core.

Proactive risk mitigation: Identifying potential security gaps before they impact functionality.

Automation and secure handover: Ensuring that security is maintained even after a project is completed.

Customisation per client needs: SecureSense is tailored based on each organisation’s security requirements.

Scalability: The framework evolves with the project and business growth.

Flexible implementation: Adjusting security measures to fit different operational and technological contexts.
