Security leadership · Manufacturing & industrial

Fractional CISO for Manufacturing & industrial

An accountable security leader who owns risk, satisfies the regulator, and unblocks the deal — part-time.

Why it matters in manufacturing & industrial

Production can't simply be rebooted. Downtime is measured in lost output, and the attack surface now spans both the factory floor and the back office.

  • OT/IT convergence: connecting plant and ERP without exposing safety-critical systems
  • Ransomware resilience where an outage stops the line, not just the email
  • Supply-chain and supplier security across a long, often analogue, chain
  • Modernising decades-old systems that can't be patched on a normal cadence

What you get

  • Security strategy and a risk-led, prioritised improvement plan
  • Governance: policies, risk register, and a working risk committee
  • Readiness for ISO 27001, SOC 2, Cyber Essentials, and customer security reviews
  • Incident response planning, tabletop exercises, and supplier assurance
  • Board reporting that translates risk into decisions

How we work in manufacturing & industrial

We segment and secure the boundary between OT and IT, plan for the outage you hope never happens, and make pragmatic calls about what to modernise, isolate, or replace.
