Secure by Design

The Ministry of Defence (MOD) has introduced the “Secure by Design” framework, a proactive approach to cybersecurity that emphasizes building security into projects and day to day activities from their inception. This innovative strategy represents a significant shift in how organizations, particularly Arms Length Bodies (ALBs) and businesses working with government contractors, should approach data protection. Being a first-mover in adopting this framework offers a competitive advantage in today’s increasingly complex threat landscape.

As a leading Managed Service Provider (MSP) in Central Scotland, we can help by assisting organisations in aligning with the MOD’s “Secure by Design” principles.

Our expertise covers the crucial preparation phase, implementation, and ongoing management required for a robust and compliant security posture. We understand the specific requirements and challenges faced by ALBs and government contractors and can tailor solutions to meet their unique needs.

By partnering with us, you can:

• Proactively mitigate security risks: “Secure by Design” focuses on preventing vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.
• Enhance data protection: Safeguard sensitive information and comply with regulatory requirements.
• Get more work: Government, MOD and Police forces now staring to require contractors and ALB’s to adhere to Secure by Design.
• Gain a competitive edge: Be a first mover and demonstrate your commitment to security and build trust with clients.
• Streamline compliance: Simplify adherence to government security standards.

In a competitive market, demonstrating a commitment to the highest security standards is paramount.
