About us

Security advice with nothing to sell you

InfoSec Governance is an independent information security consultancy. We hold no reseller agreements and take no referral commission — so the only thing we have to offer is judgement you can rely on.

Our mission

Empowering organisations through cybersecurity excellence

Our mission is to make good security achievable for organisations that do not have a large internal security function — combining deep expertise with advice that is practical, evidenced and free of vendor agenda.

Most organisations we meet are not short of security opinions. They are short of a way to decide between them. There is a scanner producing thousands of findings, a policy pack somebody downloaded, a consultant's report from three years ago, and a board asking a question nobody can answer with evidence.

What is missing is structure: a clear picture of where you stand, an agreed view of what matters most, and a sequenced plan to close the gap. That is the work we do.

Why organisations choose us
  • Senior delivery. The consultant who scopes your engagement is the one who delivers it. No bait-and-switch to a junior team.
  • Genuine independence. No reseller agreements, no commission, no incentive to recommend a purchase.
  • Fixed pricing. A fixed fee or fixed retainer agreed up front, so the scope is the scope.
  • Plain language. Reporting your board can act on, not a spreadsheet of control identifiers.
  • Real handover. We build capability in your team rather than dependency on ours.

Our approach

A method, not a template

Every engagement follows the same four stages. What changes is the content — never the rigour.

  1. Understand the business

    What you sell, who you sell it to, which obligations you carry and what would genuinely hurt. Security priorities fall out of that, not out of a generic checklist.

  2. Measure honestly

    An evidence-based baseline of where you actually stand — scored consistently, including the parts that are uncomfortable to read.

  3. Prioritise ruthlessly

    A sequenced roadmap ordered by risk reduction per pound spent, with effort, cost and dependencies made explicit for each item.

  4. Deliver and hand over

    We build it, run it alongside your team, then hand over something they can operate without us. Dependency is not a business model we are interested in.

Our commitment

Dedicated to your security success

Six commitments we hold ourselves to on every engagement, regardless of its size.

Uncompromising quality

The same standard of rigour applies to every assessment, audit and implementation, whether it is a two-week review or a multi-year programme.

Continuous innovation

We invest in ongoing research into emerging threats, techniques and regulation, so our advice reflects the current landscape rather than last year's.

Client-centric approach

Solutions are designed around your business model, risk appetite and resourcing. Nothing is lifted wholesale from a previous client.

Transparent communication

Clear, honest reporting and ongoing dialogue throughout. If something is not going well, you hear it from us early rather than at the end.

Regulatory compliance

Adherence to relevant industry standards and regulatory requirements, with the evidence trail needed to demonstrate it under audit.

Long-term partnership

We build lasting relationships through reliable delivery and consistent results. Most of our work comes from clients we already have.

Expertise

Frameworks we work in fluently

A framework is a tool for getting a result, not a destination. We pick the one that matches your obligations and map controls across the rest, so a single piece of evidence can serve several regimes at once.

That mapping is what stops multi-framework organisations doing the same work three times for three different auditors.

ISO/IEC 27001 & 27002

ISMS design, Statement of Applicability, internal audit and certification readiness through Stage 1 and Stage 2.

NIST Cybersecurity Framework

Capability profiling and maturity scoring that communicates clearly to a non-technical board.

CIS Controls

Pragmatic, prioritised technical hardening for smaller and engineering-led teams.

PDPL & customer assurance

Personal data protection readiness, control evidence and getting through customer due diligence faster.

GDPR, ISO 22301 & PCI DSS

Regulatory interpretation, continuity planning and control mapping for organisations carrying sector-specific obligations.
