Security Planning


To ensure your systems, data and employees remain secure, it is essential to design and maintain a cyber security strategy that specifically meets the needs of your business. That is easy to say but much harder to implement. Our approach to security planning focuses on a detailed understanding of your business. Bringing your IT and Leadership teams together, we design a strategy for you that eliminates your vulnerabilities within a commercially driven budget.

The Implementation Challenges

Every business needs an effective strategy to ensure that cyber risks are minimised. The question; where to start? How do you know you are doing the right things to secure your business against active threats? Many of our customers do not and why they partner with Blackfoot. The time and expertise you need to assess your systems and data security is rarely available internally. The ability to design an effective strategy that keeps your business secure takes specialist know-how, involving complex infrastructures within a challenging landscape. The UK Government Cyber Security Breaches Study published in March 2021 found that two thirds of large and medium sized businesses had experienced a cyber security breach or attack in the last twelve months. Only a quarter of UK businesses have cyber security policies covering homeworking despite its rapid rise in 2020.

Our Solution


Our security planning services remove these challenges by providing all the expertise and tools you need to understand your business goals, your system vulnerabilities and how to manage them. We then provide the leadership you need to deliver a security framework best suited to meet your business needs.
