What Schedule A covers

  1. Clause A.1: Security operations & monitoring

    Connect network, endpoint, identity, and cloud telemetry within an agreed monitoring scope. Triage activity with context and give your team a clearer view of what needs attention.

  2. Clause A.2: Detection & incident management

    Investigate meaningful events and coordinate containment, recovery, and reporting. Define escalation paths and response responsibilities before an incident occurs.

  3. Clause A.3: Vulnerability management

    Prioritize exposures by business impact and exploitability. Connect findings to accountable remediation work and validate the improvements.

  4. Clause A.4: Threat intelligence & dark web monitoring

    Look for relevant threat activity, exposed credentials, and sensitive information. Enrich findings with the context your team needs to decide what to do next.

  5. Clause A.5: Penetration testing

    Use recurring and external assessments to identify attack paths and test defensive assumptions. Testing cadence, systems, and authorization are agreed before work begins.

  6. Clause A.6: Security engineering

    Improve integrations, detection logic, cloud and identity controls, and security architecture. Make the tools you already use work better together.

  7. Clause A.7: Compliance & executive visibility

    Connect technical findings to control gaps, practical roadmaps, and clear reporting. Support framework alignment and evidence preparation without promising certification.

  8. Clause A.8: Tabletop exercises & advisory

    Rehearse incident decisions with technical and business stakeholders. Discuss advisory or vCISO support based on the needs and scope of your security program.

Supplied under this schedule.

Agree the work up front. Keep ownership clear. Leave your team with practical next steps and information it can use.

Request an assessment

Conditions: specific coverage, technologies, testing boundaries, availability, and deliverables are agreed in your statement of work. Advisory and compliance support do not constitute certification or an independent audit opinion.

Let’s talk managed security.

Tell us what you’re working with and where you need support. We’ll help define a useful next step, and the scope comes before any work.
