Your opportunity

With technology changing by the second, cyber security is becoming increasingly critical to business. As cyber-attacks occur with greater frequency and severity, board members and executives are realising that technology solutions are just one part of a comprehensive approach to managing risk.

From trying to hack their systems to understanding which cyber threats could have the biggest impact, your work will keep clients safe, secure and one step ahead. You will develop skills to establish, run and manage projects, directly advise clients, solve complex problems and deliver quality results.

From a strategic perspective, projects may include:

  • Identifying and understanding their key business risks and cyber-threat exposures
  • Advising on sensitive data usage in a secure and ethical way in a heightened regulatory landscape
  • Creating training and awareness to understand human factors of cyber
  • Securing their applications with strategic thinking and process design

From a technical perspective, they may include:

  • Advising on and implementing security technologies, from safeguarding applications to managing digital identity
  • Creating and deploying guardrails as companies move to the cloud
  • Helping organisations respond to and recover from cyber-attacks
  • Ethically hack and test an organisation's resilience

Your professional experience

  • We help our clients to understand and respond to the threats they face by utilising our deep, strategic and technical expertise. We solve challenges such as detecting unknown or unseen threats, configuring and managing access solutions for information and systems, defining cyber strategy, or identifying and contextualising the threats to an organisation.
  • Within our technical services we offer a wide variety of options for your cyber career, from becoming an ethical hacker to a cyber incident responder. You could become a cloud security specialist, implement security on industrial control systems or advise on security for the Internet of Things.
