Transformation through partnership

At Skylight Cyber, we aim to take your security posture beyond the point of economic viability for attackers. Your transformation journey starts now.

Understanding your business

The first step is understanding how your business works inside and out, and engaging all relevant stakeholders in the transformation process. Threats relevant to your organisation’s profile are mapped out.

Demonstrating the cyber attack path

We demonstrate real cyber attack paths that can be actively exploited in your current IT or OT environment to compromise your critical assets. Only by an offensive security approach can you determine your real exposure.

Matching your controls to your threats

Given what’s at stake, we match realistic controls to your threats to quickly and effectively reduce your risk exposure.

Building a pragmatic cybersecurity strategy

After uncovering your true security landscape, together we build a holistic cybersecurity strategy and program suitable to your resources to maintain an acceptable level of risk.

Provide ongoing advisory support as your security partner

Once you kick-off your new cybersecurity journey, we provide ongoing advisory support as your security partner when you need it. Your security strategy will also continuously evolve as the landscape changes.
