Cybersecurity for regulated and non-regulated organisations
Security that protects and enables.
Most organisations carry more cyber risk than they realise — and have fewer remediation options than they'd like. DarkGuard closes that gap: enterprise depth, without the enterprise overhead.
What we do
From assessment to remediation
Every engagement is aligned with NIST CSF 2.0. We don't just identify gaps — we close them.
Governance, risk & compliance
ICT risk management, gap assessments, and governance frameworks — mapped to the standards and regulations you answer to, from ISO 27001 to FCA, DORA, FINMA, and CAF, with evidence ready when someone asks.
Attack surface management
Asset discovery, penetration testing, vulnerability management, and configuration hardening. Every finding has a named owner and a remediation date.
Managed detection & response
24/7 managed detection and response across endpoints, network, cloud, and identity. We watch what matters — and act when it counts.
Incident response & forensics
Triage, containment, forensics, and the reporting that follows — to regulators, customers, or your board. Our team has handled incidents at the highest level and brings that judgement to yours.
Operational resilience
Important business services mapped, impact tolerances set, and resilience tested — so you keep running under stress, and can prove it to a regulator, a major customer, or your own board.
Identity & data protection
Identity governance, PAM, MFA, and encryption so access is appropriate, enforced, and auditable — and sensitive data is protected at every layer.
ICT services
Cloud infrastructure, network management, end-user computing, and managed service desk — secure, reliable, and documented to a defined standard.
AI enablement
Governance, security testing, and AI-augmented operations across the full AI adoption lifecycle — so AI adoption stays safe, defensible, and aligned to the rules that apply to you (EU AI Act, FCA, FINMA).
Virtual CISO
Senior security leadership on a fractional basis — embedded in your organisation, accountable for cyber strategy, board reporting, and engagement with regulators and wider stakeholders.
Specialised services
Operational technology security, executive protection for high-net-worth individuals, and post-quantum cryptography readiness — for requirements beyond a standard programme.
When something goes wrong, you need a team that has been there before.
Our senior team has delivered incident response and board-level exercises for organisations across banking, insurance, and critical infrastructure.
