Can you work alongside our internal security team?

Yes. Engagements range from advisory support for an existing team to fully managed detection and response, with a clearly defined split of responsibilities.

Do you provide continuous monitoring?

Yes. We design and operate monitoring and detection capability, including managed detection and response, with agreed service levels and reporting.

How is an assessment scoped?

We agree objectives, environments in scope, testing windows, rules of engagement, and reporting format before any technical activity begins.

Current challenges

What enterprise security teams are facing

Our assessments consistently surface the same structural pressures. Naming them accurately is the first step to closing them.

Expanding attack surface

Cloud adoption, remote work, third parties, and connected operational technology extend exposure beyond the traditional perimeter.

Identity as the primary target

Credential theft, session hijacking, and privilege abuse remain the most common route into enterprise environments.

Limited detection coverage

Monitoring often covers only part of the estate, leaving gaps across cloud workloads, endpoints, and OT networks.

Response capacity

Many organisations have documented plans but have not rehearsed containment, communication, and recovery under pressure.

Compliance and reporting load

Regulatory and board reporting requirements consume capacity that would otherwise improve controls.

Security skills availability

Specialist skills are scarce and difficult to retain, making sustainable operating models essential.

Service catalogue

Fifteen security services, one operating model

Engage a single assessment, a defined build programme, or continuous managed operations.

Cybersecurity strategy and risk assessment

Risk-based strategy, threat profiling, and prioritised improvement planning.

Security architecture and consulting

Reference architecture, control design, and secure design review for new initiatives.

Security operations centre

SOC design, tooling, use cases, playbooks, staffing models, and operating procedures.

Managed detection and response

Continuous monitoring, triage, containment support, and reporting as a managed service.

Vulnerability assessment

Recurring internal and external assessment cycles with prioritised remediation guidance.

Penetration testing

Scoped testing of networks, applications, cloud, and wireless with clear rules of engagement.

Network security

Segmentation, perimeter and internal controls, secure remote access, and inspection design.

Cloud security

Configuration baselines, workload protection, posture management, and cloud identity controls.

Application security

Secure development practice, code and dependency review, and application protection.

Identity and access management

Identity governance, privileged access, multi-factor authentication, and access review cycles.

Endpoint security

Endpoint detection and response, hardening baselines, and device compliance enforcement.

Data protection

Classification, encryption, loss prevention, retention, and secure data sharing.

Security awareness training

Role-based awareness programmes, phishing simulation, and executive briefings.

Incident response and recovery

Response planning, retained support, containment, forensic coordination, and recovery.

Governance, risk, and compliance

Framework alignment, policy development, control mapping, and audit-ready reporting.

Maturity framework

Know where you stand before you invest

We assess your current level across governance, identity, infrastructure, detection, and response, then define the shortest credible path to the next one.

Level 1

Initial

Controls are informal and inconsistent. Security activity is reactive and dependent on individuals.

Level 2

Developing

Core controls exist in parts of the estate. Policies are drafted but not consistently applied or measured.

Level 3

Defined

Policies, standards, and ownership are documented and applied across the environment with baseline monitoring.

Level 4

Managed

Controls are measured, tested, and reported. Detection and response operate with defined service levels.

Level 5

Optimized

Security is continuously improved using threat intelligence, exercises, automation, and business risk metrics.

This framework describes your organisation's posture. It is an assessment tool, not a certification, and we make no certification claims on Dariyo's behalf.

Engagement process

How a cybersecurity engagement runs

Every stage produces documented output, so findings and decisions stay with your organisation.

01

Scoping

Agree objectives, environments, constraints, and reporting expectations.

02

Assessment

Technical testing, configuration review, interviews, and evidence collection.

03

Analysis

Risk rating, root cause analysis, and prioritisation against business impact.

04

Reporting

Executive summary, technical findings, and a costed remediation plan.

05

Remediation support

Hands-on engineering support to close findings and validate fixes.

06

Continuous operations

Optional managed monitoring, testing cycles, and periodic review.
