Company mission
Cydea's mission is to build a safer, more secure world where more things go right.
Our take
The cybersecurity threat has been ratcheting up over recent years, and with a number of substantial and high-profile breaches on the books, CISOs across the board are amping up their cybersecurity postures. Cydea is a relatively young cybersecurity consultancy bringing a new energy to help them do so.
The boutique consultancy typically works with clients over longer periods on a broad spread of projects including due diligence, risk analysis, and scorecards. It’s a modest operation, but distinguishes itself with a focus on what it terms “positive security”: working from what needs protecting, as opposed to what might attack. It’s certainly a refreshing approach, and with plenty of boutique cybersecurity consultancies cropping up over recent years it’s important to stand out.
Moreover, if boutique operations lack the resources of competitors like Deloitte and Accenture, they nevertheless benefit from an agility which allows them to pivot and adapt to the rapidly shifting market of threats. As such, Cydea offers a strong proposition, and with the cybersecurity consulting market expected to nearly double in size globally over the coming years, it could be in a good place to capitalise on this growth,
