Security Management
Once a security management system is in place to protect your business, you need the resources to maintain your infrastructure, manage the constantly changing threat landscape and respond to incidents should the worst happen. Blackfoot’s Virtual Cyber-Officer provides the specialist resources to help you manage your company’s cyber security without the need for internal expertise. Even businesses with the best-laid incident response plans can benefit from a professional consultant when an incident arises, a key component of Blackfoot’s offering. With more companies finding it increasingly challenging to find the necessary resource to manage this key area of their businesses, there has never been a better time to utilise the services of a cyber security partner like Blackfoot.
The Implementation Challenges
Businesses face continual change. New systems, services and customer requirements all impact your security infrastructure and the effectiveness of your existing framework. The time needed to continually monitor cyber security and the tools required to do so are not available to most businesses. Nor are key specialisms from web design to data protection, network security to regulatory compliance. This is why so many businesses either take an ad hoc approach or partner with a specialist provider to manage this key area for them.
UK businesses increasingly report conflicts between IT service continuity and maintenance with key cyber security activity such as patching software.

We also provide a complete service to help you manage incident response and our professional consultants will ensure continually changing regulatory requirements are met.
