Cyber attacks are increasing in frequency, scale and sophistication. Opportunistic criminals are taking advantage of the same technological advancement that firms are using to grow, and have come to pose a real threat to firms of all shapes and sizes.
When a customer interacts with your business, they trust you to protect their data and, in many cases, their money. The cost of failing to do so can be huge – and this is not just financial cost we’re talking about.
It is your responsibility to ensure that your firm has a robust cyber security framework in place. Having this independently verified will only improve your security.
Cyber defence must be more than just reacting to events and attacks. Businesses must develop a cyber security strategy, with effective Board and executive oversight, to ensure a unified approach to managing cyber risk. All employees need to be upskilled on the potential ‘red flags’ that could signal a cyber-attack.
The Huntswood team has delivered precisely to brief and in a timely manner too. I have been most pleased with the thoroughness of preparation going into the project. This, combined with the obvious regulatory and strategic experience you all have has made the project a great success.
The project has run incredibly smoothly, which reflects great planning and great commitment to pro-actively resolve any issues ... Good collaborative planning was at the heart of the operation. It primarily ensured our customers received an outstanding service but also convey confidence to regulator and all the internal stakeholders.
Huntswood's people are of the highest calibre. Not only do they understand the issue from a regulatory perspective, but they know how to deliver effective training in an impactful way.
Our challenge... has been extremely demanding and Huntswood has had to deal with a rapid upsizing of the ongoing engagements, taking the number of deployed staff from an initial 16 to 174 in a very short space of time. The hassle- free experience has been testament to Huntswood's organisational and management skills.
Throughout the eight months that I've worked with Huntswood I've seen first- hand how they put their customers at the heart of their business. They are a company that continues to impress, deliver and delight in equal measure.
