Helping to digitally transform London businesses
Challenge: Safeguarding Sensitive Client Information
A multi-award-winning communications consultancy, specialising in reputation management, financial public relations, political and regulatory affairs, and crisis communications, manages highly sensitive information for high-profile clients in the financial and political sectors. With the rise in cyber attacks targeting UK companies, the consultancy was concerned about the security of their clients’ data and documents. They sought to assess and enhance their system’s security to prevent unauthorised access.
Solution: Comprehensive Penetration Testing and Vulnerability Scanning

This authorised simulated cyber attack aimed to identify both strengths and weaknesses, assessing the potential for unauthorised parties to access system features and data. Following the assessment, Cubit provided a full risk evaluation along with recommendations to bolster security.

The consultancy gained a comprehensive understanding of their system’s vulnerabilities and strengths. Armed with Cubit’s recommendations, they implemented enhanced security measures to protect sensitive client information from potential cyber threats.
