What I do

Compliance & Certification

I prove you take security seriously, so you’re never caught out when a client asks.

Fractional Security Leadership

I make the security decisions that need a senior person, without you hiring someone full-time.

AI Governance

I put clear rules around the AI your business is already using.

Hands-on Implementation

I work alongside your team on specific security tasks including training, rollouts and migrations, response plans and client and supplier questionnaires.

Risk Assessment & Policy

I build policies around the risks that actually matter to your business.

Clients say…

Tim has worked closely with my team of 12 administrators and inspectors, who use a range of devices—including phones, laptops and tablets—to deliver our services. With his support, we have made significant improvements to the security of the information we rely on to operate our business.

From our first meeting, it was clear that we were in good hands. Tim took the time to listen and understand how our business operates. The security upgrade took several weeks, during which he guided the entire team through the process and provided support whenever it was needed.

I would highly recommend working with Tim. He has extensive knowledge of business information security, is a great people person, and understands how to support individuals with different needs and levels of technical experience. He handled a challenging project with an ease and professionalism that helped everyone feel supported throughout.
