The Rt Hon Geoff Hoon is Head of Sales of Cydefence. Having served as the UK’s Secretary of State for Defence, he brings his extensive defence expertise to cyber warfare and solutions to cyber threats.
Cyber threats change over time – businesses change all the time. As a result, keeping a business cyber secure requires expertise & experienced–based decisions to make suitable adjustments to cyber defences over time. Our customers can benefit from access to that quality of security resource through our ongoing, retained CISO advisory service.
Whether or not they are a customer for implementation or managed services
Cyber CISO Advisory service:
A. Provides expert, experienced security leadership & advice on a retained basis
B. Provides for a fixed number of days of advice per month, with provision for extra time on a T&M basis
C. Can provide mentoring to internal security teams & strategic & practical advice to teams, executives & Board
D. Retained Cyber CISO advisory support – 1 to 5 days per month
For most businesses Cyber Defence is a necessary, but not mainstream, activity. It makes sense for some businesses to partner with an expert & experienced resource like Cydefence in the ongoing management of their security measures – to ensure the right security is maintained without becoming a burden to the operation of the rest of the business.
Cyber Defence Management service:
A. Initial cyber defence scoping study – requires Services 2 & 3 to be contracted
B. Implements cyber defence service delivery management for agreed high-priority services
C. Finalises second phase “Cydefence Introduced” service contracts
D. Cydefence Managed total fees dependent on the cyber defence services selected & agreed with the customer – typically paid as a monthly service fee, including both Cydefence costs & contracted (Cydefence Direct & Managed) vendor service fees
E. Expected managed service initiation timeframe – 1-3 months from Service initiation
F. Followed by managed service operation as agreed with customer – with 1 year minimum and minimum 3 months termination notice (subject to negotiation to meet customers’ needs)

Cyber Defence Implementation service:
A. Implements high-priority cyber defence services (as optionally justified in Service 1 (Strategy) & planned in Service 2 (Planning))
B. Finalises priority services through “Cydefence Introduced” service contracts

A Cyber Defence Strategy is an essential business tool because it shows how to go beyond basic cyber security hygiene to tailoring of additional security measures to meet the risks that are specific to the business – it lays out a roadmap for continuing improvement over a number of years, as the risks evolve.
Cyber Defence Strategy service:
Cyber Defence Planning is necessary for most businesses – apart from the smallest – to ensure that the security measures that the business invests in are implemented fully, efficiently – and at optimal cost.
A Cyber Defence Plan may lay out the first steps (e.g. for the first year) in following a Cyber Defence Strategy
