Cyber security and GRC consultancy

Security that holds up
under scrutiny.

A boutique consultancy providing cyber security, governance, and cloud security services for individuals and organisations where security and discretion are non-negotiable.

What we do

Security, from strategy to delivery.

We work across the full security lifecycle, across all major cloud platforms and services. Governance and risk, technical architecture, cloud deployment, and active threat response.

D1

Security posture and audit

Your current controls, configurations, and policies assessed against industry baselines, including ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials, and NIS2. Findings are scored, prioritised, and come with a remediation plan you can act on.

D2

Governance, risk and compliance

GRC frameworks built around your organisation. We translate regulatory obligations into controls your teams understand and operate day to day, and can demonstrate to auditors and clients.

D3

Virtual and outsourced CISO

Senior security leadership without the overhead. From a trusted advisor on call to a fully embedded security function leading a programme, structured around what you actually need.

D4

Cloud security and architecture

Security architecture design and deployment across all major cloud platforms and security services. Zero Trust, Conditional Access, identity, endpoint, data, and email protection, configured to enforce rather than observe.

D5

Secure digital environments

Design and delivery of secure cloud environments across all major platforms. Identity, email, file storage, and every aspect of a digital tenant architected from the ground up so your data stays private, resilient, and accessible only to those authorised.

D6

Investigations and threat response

When something goes wrong, speed matters. Breach containment, root cause analysis, and remediation. Our principals have delivered investigations for private clients, legal teams, and organisations under active attack.

About dcypher

Boutique by design.

dcypher is a specialist consultancy dedicated to protecting modern digital communications and operations. Every engagement is handled directly by our principals. Our principals hold CISSP, CIPP/E, and advanced Microsoft and cloud security certifications, spanning governance, privacy, and technical security disciplines.

We keep our client base intentionally small because you deal directly with the people doing the work. Our clients include private offices, family offices, professional services firms, and organisations handling sensitive information where discretion is essential.

Between us we have spent more than two decades delivering security programmes across public and private sectors.

  • Confidential by default Client relationships, findings, and communications are treated with complete discretion, without exception.
  • Plain advice, not jargon We communicate at the level that suits you, from technical deep-dives with your engineers to board-level risk summaries.
  • Flexible engagement We adapt to your budget and timeline, whether you need an urgent review or a long-term embedded relationship.
