Risk & Controls Consulting - Defense & Resilience - Full Time Graduate - London

What does this team do?

In today's rapidly evolving tech landscape, cyber security is really important. Our Defence and Resilience team enhances the cyber resilience of our clients, by strengthening their ability to prepare for, detect, and respond to cyber incidents: 

• Prepare for: We develop robust incident response and recovery plans for clients and test their response strategy with simulated incidents to ensure they are well-prepared for potential threats. Our team also helps implement secure backup and vaulting solutions to ensure that critical data remains protected, mitigating the impact of a cyber incident. 
• Detect: The team enables clients to shift from reactive cyber security to a proactive approach, allowing them to detect threats swiftly and effectively. This includes implementing automated tools to monitor their systems for cyber intrusions and proactively uncovering active cyber threats in client systems before they escalate, preventing significant damage.    
• Respond: In the event of a cyber incident, our team provides technical response and incident management support to investigate, contain, and minimise the impact, working closely with clients to restore normal business operations as quickly as possible and minimise disruption.
