Whether you need guidance with achieving compliance to a particular industry standard or simply want an expert opinion of your systems, policies and procedures, Daisy can help.
You may already have specific requirements to benefit from our consultancy services or you may want help in further understanding your risk position to ensure you are deploying resources and investment into protection where you need it the most.
All our consultants are highly qualified, and our minimum consultant qualification is Certified Information Security Systems Professionals (CISSP). In addition, our PCI specialists are all Payment Card Industry Qualified Security Assessors (PCI QSA) and our ISO 27001 specialists have all passed the ISO 27001 Lead Auditor and Lead Implementer examinations.
Cyber Security Review
Our Cyber Security Review is designed to assess the key aspects of your IT security-related infrastructure, processes and technical management capabilities, and balance these against the cyber threats that are most relevant to your business. We also offer Cloud Security Reviews to help you understand how secure your cloud solution is.
Penetration Testing
Penetration testing offers comprehensive security insights, helping you detect vulnerabilities in advance and thwarting potential exploitation by malicious actors. By proactively identifying and addressing weaknesses, it prevents potential downtime and ensures compliance with regulations, safeguarding your business from disruptions and data breaches.
Cyber Essentials
Cyber Essentials is a UK government scheme to protect against common cyber threats, mandatory for bidding on sensitive government contracts. It has five key controls: malware protection, secure configuration, access control, patch management, and boundary firewalls/internet gateways. Daisy partners with NCSC and IASME for consultancy and certification.
For higher security, organisations handling confidential data can choose Cyber Essentials PLUS, with on-site technical assessments for added protection.
PCI DSS
Through our work as Qualified Security Assessors (QSAs), our role is to help you understand your PCI DSS compliance obligations and options, support you through a development programme to deploy compliant systems, and remove others from scope and assess you against the standard, either as a Merchant reporting to your bank, or as a Service Provider. We are well placed to understand the more challenging aspects of the PCI DSS and are able to create solutions that are tailored to your particular challenges and ensure you have a smooth route to compliance. We also support clients in gaining compliance following a breach of card data.
ISO 27001
Daisy can help you understand your current level of compliance against the requirements of the standard. You may find through a gap analysis exercise that you already have many of the required processes and/or documentation. We can then help you to address the gaps in a manner which suits your organisation. All our qualified ISO consultants are experienced in the successful implementation of security management systems and can help you to navigate your way through the standard to full certification.
Virtual CISO
With many organisations changing how they operate, there has been a significant move to remote working and additional reliance on technology. Now more than ever companies are seeing the need to employ a Chief Information Security Officer (CISO). However, finding a CISO in this climate is tough; they’re hard to come by and, if you can find them, can be very expensive too. The alternative is to consider the services of a Virtual Chief Information Security Officer (vCISO).
The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA)
No matter what stage you are at on your DORA readiness journey, we have the expertise, tools, and experience to guide you seamlessly from start to finish. Our qualified operational resilience and cyber security experts have helped numerous businesses in the financial services sector implement robust frameworks to improve, document and test their DORA preparations, ahead of the January 2025 deadline.
