Our Approach
Our philosophy is simple: security is a strategic business enabler which reduces corporate risk while identifying potential business opportunities, providing a competitive advantage over others. We partner with our clients to build a culture of resilience based on a structured, principled framework that is transparent, data-driven, and aligned with your most critical business objectives.
A Partnership, Not a Transaction
We begin every engagement by listening. We seek to understand your unique business context, your strategic goals, and your key priorities. We believe the most effective security strategies are born from a deep, collaborative partnership. Unlike others, such as the Big 4, who they might be aware of offering consultancy to the sector, we identify the issues then we stick around to assist in the uplift of security and its transition to a strategic level within the organisation. Sikret fills this gap.
The IT/OT Convergence Philosophy
We operate on the core principle that in a modern industrial enterprise, IT and OT security are dependent on one another. Most security-attacks on industrial operations originate from the IT network, making a holistic, converged security strategy essential. We don't just look at your plant or your corporate network in isolation; we analyse the entire technology landscape, not in isolated segments, to build resilience from the ground up.
A Structured and Principled Framework
Using industry-specific and international standards, a security baseline is undertaken, identifying key recommendations leading to improved security maturity. Sikret differs from the competition by assisting in the uplift of the organisation and the ongoing resilience assessments in response to ever-evolving critical threats, providing the strategic advice on the best course of action and investment needed to maintain the desired level of business resilience.
Elevating Security to a Strategic Level
Our primary goal is the elevation of the security discussion to a strategic level with executives and other key stakeholders. We provide the insights and language that allow executives to understand security risk in the context of business outcomes—creating and maintaining a competitive advantage over others operating in the same market.
