Discover how the V³ Framework can revolutionise your firm's cyber posture management, ensuring cost optimisation, comprehensive visibility, and robust security validation.

Optimising and Validating Cybersecurity Posture

Our approach to Optimising and Validating Cybersecurity Posture is centred on delivering tangible value through precise management of digital resources. By leveraging our Smart M365 Optimisation and FinOps-driven Azure Review, we identified over £130,000 in potential savings through license recategorisation, such as switching from E3 to F3 licenses. We also highlighted risks associated with leaver accounts and identified orphaned licenses, creating a roadmap for renewal planning and secure score improvements. Our E5 optimisations have the potential to uplift secure scores by up to 81%, further enhancing the security posture of our clients.

Enhanced Cyber Asset Management and Clarity with Visibility

Achieving comprehensive visibility is crucial for effective cybersecurity management. Through our targeted workshops, we delivered a Cyber Asset Inventory that serves as the 'source of truth' across all security tools. This initiative led to a 60% increase in tool coverage within three months and identified critical security gaps, including the absence of Data Loss Prevention (DLP) deployment. Additionally, we surfaced real-time analytics on Azure billing and cloud economics, enabling smarter budgeting and better alignment between IT and business objectives. This visibility ensures that all active devices are accounted for, providing a robust foundation for managing cybersecurity risks.

Risk Quantification and Security Validation

Risk quantification and security validation are essential components of our V³ Framework. Using simulated threat assessments and Security Tool Validation aligned with the MITRE ATT&CK framework, we measured performance across endpoints, gateways, and DLP. Our findings revealed that 1,854 out of 4,295 payloads reached their destination, indicating a moderate risk score of 57 and highlighting control deficiencies. We prioritised remediation efforts in high-risk areas such as web gateway protection and DLP implementation, ensuring that our clients' security measures are both effective and efficient.

Leveraging NIST CSF 2.0 for Comprehensive Security Assessments

At EveryCloud, we leverage the National Institute of Standards and Technology's Cyber Security Framework (NIST CSF 2.0) to provide comprehensive security assessments. This industry-recognised framework allows us to conduct in-depth risk-based gap analysis, helping organisations understand their current security posture and build a foundation for improving security maturity. Our assessments are vendor and solution agnostic, designed to highlight security gaps and prioritise best practices. This approach ensures that our recommendations are tailored to the specific needs and risk appetite of each business, facilitating continuous improvement and cost optimisation.

Transforming Operational Risk into Strategic Value

Transforming operational risk into strategic value is at the core of our V³ Framework. By addressing inefficiencies and optimizing existing resources, we empower our clients to confidently control costs, enhance their security posture, and demonstrate measurable ROI on their digital and cloud investments. Our holistic approach includes aligning with industry-specific regulatory expectations, such as NIS 2, and improving compliance postures. With validated performance of existing tools and actionable roadmaps for future investments, we help businesses turn cybersecurity challenges into strategic opportunities.
