Our experts help manage your organisation’s information security practice, which includes the following services.

Certification and Compliance Services

Achieving and Maintaining Certification

Certification and compliance are essential for Governance, Risk and Compliance. Achieving and maintaining certification in important security and industry standards is crucial to build trust and accountability. It demonstrates commitment to regulatory standards. We help you understand and meet your obligations within your industry. Find out how certification and compliance can make a difference to your organisation.

Win More Business

Certification can be a key differentiator or a condition to supply, opening the doors to more opportunities and increased sales.

Reassure Customers and Stakeholders

Certification is the best way to show existing and potential customers that you’re taking proactive steps to be responsible.

International Recognition

Adopting an internationally recognised standard will improve your organisation’s reputation. It will allow you to attain stakeholder requirements on a worldwide scale.

Ensure Legislative Compliance

Gain ongoing awareness of emerging trends and compliance with changing legislation and standards development.

Our team has expertise with many information security certifications, standards and frameworks:

Compliance Reporting and Documentation

Compliance reporting and documentation are crucial to provide transparent, auditable evidence of regulatory adherence, support risk management decisions, and demonstrate accountability to stakeholders as well as authorities.

Thanks to our comprehensive reporting and documentation solutions, you always stay on top of ever-evolving compliance requirements. Maintain accurate records and stay up to date with regulatory changes:

1. Regulatory reporting: Assistance with the documentation and reporting required to comply with legislation and regulation.

2. Audit trail management: We create and maintain your audit trails for compliance and security monitoring.

3. Compliance dashboards: Real-time visibility into your organisation’s compliance status and risks.

Risk Assessment and Management

Risk assessment and management enable organisations to proactively identify, evaluate and mitigate threats. This makes it a vital part of your Governance, Risk and Compliance approach. Despite increased security spending, almost two-thirds of businesses have experienced critical risk events in the past three years. Here is how we ensure you won’t get breached.

At Logica Security, we provide information security risk management services that improve decision-making, optimise your IT investments, centralise visibility across your environment, and align different functional teams to address similar goals. Here’s how our consultants can help you:

1. Risk assessment: Identification of risks within your business and programmes.

2. Business impact analysis: Evaluating the potential impact of identified risks to your business operations, assets and reputation.

3. Risk treatment plans: Creating actionable plans for mitigating, transferring, accepting or avoiding risks.

Policies and Procedures

Clear policies and procedures form the backbone of effective GRC by setting consistent expectations, guiding compliant behaviour and embedding accountability throughout your organisation. Our solutions include well-defined, tailored security policies and procedures, that manage risk and enable your business, rather than hinder it. We work with you to develop and implement policies that guide your organisation towards a secure operational model.

Security Awareness and Training

Employee awareness and training empower your team to recognise and avoid threats, follow regulations and promote a culture of security. Another important advantage is that it minimises human error-related risks. Turn compliance from a checkbox into a shared responsibility. Our experts educate your staff about best practices for safeguarding your business assets, which includes:

1. Security awareness training and testing: Tailored training packages covering topics such as phishing, data privacy and company policy.

2. Role-based training: Specific training for employee groups based on their roles, making sure they understand their responsibility in maintaining a secure environment.

3. Phishing simulations: Customised phishing simulation tests to understand susceptibility and educate your team on sophisticated phishing attacks.

Third-party Risk Management

Making sure third-party vendors’ cyber risks are assessed and meet your security requirements.

Programme Risk Management

Identifying and managing security risks while making sure programmes and projects are completed on time, within scope and on budget.

Security Testing and Validation

We assist you to uncover weaknesses, assess cyber risk exposure and determine the strength of the target’s security posture. Post-acquisition, we continue to support you with integration-focused solutions, including remediation, monitoring and ongoing security assessments. Our M&A security services include:

Security Audit

Internal and external security audits play a critical role in GRC by independently verifying control effectiveness, identifying compliance gaps and offering helpful insights that drive continuous improvement. Our security audit services include:

1. Internal security audits: Conducting thorough internal audits to ensure that your security policies, procedures and controls are functioning as intended.

2. External audits: Management and response to your external audits, including preparation, documentation and ongoing support.

3. Penetration testing and vulnerability scanning: Identifying vulnerabilities in your network, systems, and applications before attackers can exploit them.

Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM)

Third-party risk management (TPRM) is essential to Governance, Risk and Compliance because it helps you assess external dependencies, prevent indirect compliance breaches and maintain control over security standards across your extended ecosystem. Without it, your business is exposed to the following risks and impacts:

Mitigating the risks you face from third parties is often challenging due to:

What are the benefits of using a virtual CISO (vCISO)?

A vCISO provides your organisation with expert security leadership without the expense of a full-time CISO. Our experienced vCISOs bring deep insights into cybersecurity strategy, governance, and compliance. They help with security roadmap development, risk mitigation strategies, and executive-level decision-making, making sure your organisation’s security posture aligns with its business goals. Additionally, they offer ongoing risk assessments and can provide regular updates to the board and C-Suite executives.

What is the difference between risk management and incident response?

Risk management involves identifying, assessing, and mitigating potential risks that could affect your organisation. It includes developing risk treatment plans and monitoring threats to prevent incidents. Incident response, on the other hand, is all about how your organisation reacts to a security breach or crisis. It focuses on minimising damage, containing the incident, and recovering from the attack. While risk management prevents incidents, incident response ensures your organisation is prepared to handle crises effectively when they occur.

What is the role of a Business Continuity Plan in GRC?

A Business Continuity Plan (BCP) is a critical component of risk management and GRC. It make sure your organisation can continue operations if it experiences a disruptive event, such as a cyber-attack or natural disaster. Logica Security helps organisations create and implement BCPs that identify potential risks, outline recovery strategies, and make sure essential functions can continue with minimal disruption. Having a robust BCP in place demonstrates that your organisation is prepared for unforeseen events and aligns with industry best practices for resilience.

Our services include conducting vendor assessments, monitoring vendor performance, and helping to manage third-party relationships to reduce risks that could affect your business operations and security posture.

Logica Security offers comprehensive training programmes tailored to your organisation’s specific needs. This includes role-based training for specific departments, security awareness testing, and phishing simulations to improve your team’s ability to respond to potential threats effectively.
