Insicon Overview

Founded in 2013, Insicon is a cybersecurity advisory that specialises in providing independent advice and leadership to executives and board directors.

We conduct comprehensive cybersecurity risk assessments to identify threats and vulnerabilities specific to each organisation, providing a blueprint for risk remediation. From that blueprint, we then assist companies to develop a robust information security management system to increase customer and supplier trust by demonstrating secure policies and procedures that align to ISO 27001 or other cybersecurity standards and frameworks.

Insicon also provides guidance on technology application and acquisition, in order to drive continuous improvement in our client's cybersecurity posture.

By offering these services, Insicon empowers executives and boards with the understanding, strategy, and resilience needed to effectively manage cyber risks and build a strong security culture across their organisations.
