We evaluate suppliers against SC-CIS requirements, DCC compliance standards, and MOD security protocols. Our assessments include security policy reviews, technical control verification, incident response capability evaluation, and ongoing monitoring to detect emerging risks.
We provide detailed reporting that enables informed risk-based decisions about supplier relationships.
Beyond initial assessments, we offer continuous monitoring and periodic re-evaluation of your supply chain partners. Our service includes risk scoring, remediation tracking, and escalation protocols for critical findings.
We work collaboratively with your suppliers to help them achieve required security standards while maintaining your operational requirements.
We can manage your entire third-party assurance programme, conducting independent reviews and audits on your behalf. This approach reduces internal resource requirements while ensuring consistent, professional evaluation of supply chain security.
Our flexible services scale with your budget and can be tailored to your specific risk appetite and compliance requirements.
A single compromised supplier can provide attackers with access to classified information, sensitive project details, or critical defence infrastructure. Our supplier assurance services protect your organisation from supply chain attacks, ensure regulatory compliance, and maintain the integrity of defence operations.
