Our expertise to help you:

Thicken your resilience coat

Start with your people, processes, and technology.

People: Your staff can be your greatest asset. Our cybersecurity awareness and risk training will help them to detect dodgy activity on your computers, and to share what they find with others.

Processes: Customers are increasingly demanding evidence of your cybersecurity posture before they will do business. Get ahead of your competitors and get your cybersecurity policies sorted today.

Technology: It is often difficult to know how well-protected you actually are. We can interpret what your IT team are telling you, and assess and identify any gaps you have in your technical protections.

Manage your risk in a flick of the tail

We’ll plan your response and build a management plan.

Your people, processes and technology can all have vulnerabilities that could be exploited by cyber criminals.

This means that all organisations, no matter how small, need to take cybersecurity seriously.

At Outfox, our experienced cybersecurity consultants help you understand your cybersecurity risks, and assess what needs to be protected and how you will do it.

Upskill your team from cyber zeroes to cyber heroes

People can be your greatest weakness

Whether it’s sharing passwords with colleagues, emailing sensitive data to the wrong recipient, or falling victim to a phishing attack, people can be the weakest link in your cyber security.

Left unaddressed, you face the risk of data breaches, fines, or damage to your business’s reputation.

People can be your greatest strength

Our Human Risk Service (HRS) helps you to plug the “people chink” in your cyber armour, through personalised security awareness training programs, periodic phishing simulation campaigns, simplified policy management and ongoing dark web monitoring – all completely managed for you.

For little more than the price of a cup of coffee per month per person, you can sit back and relax while we turn your team from cyber zeroes to cyber heroes, making them your first line of defence against the bad guys.

Testimonials

Thanks Jan for updating my security awareness. I thought I had it sussed but after your review and reports I have now increased my security.
Andrew Garner, Garner Wealth Solutions
Our team at IT Works loves partnering with Outfox to ensure our customers have robust Cyber Resilience. Jan and the team are wonderful at making it easy for our customers to understand the risk and provide clear guidance on what steps can be taken to improve overall Cyber Security and Resilience. I love seeing our customers taking action after attending workshops - Highly recommend the team and what they deliver.
Darryl Gatward, Customer Experience Manager, IT Works
We engaged Outfox to do a Cyber WOF. They were extremely knowledgeable and worked well with us through a process of review and assessment and provided excellent insights and guidance on what was required to improve our resilience and protect our valuable data and assets in an increasingly risky world of frequent sophisticated threats. I would recommend the Outfox services to any business that is concerned about its Cyber status and needs support in this highly technical and specialised field. Doing this helped us to feel that we were doing all we could to protect against threats.
Terence Burns, Principal, Karaka Point Consulting
The security policies and plans Outfox have developed were essential to Sys-Integrate meeting the NZ government security compliance goals, and the recent Cyber Security Incident Response exercise was expertly facilitated, with a number of well thought through lessons learnt and recommendations gratefully received. The Outfox focus on giving exemplary customer service is second to none. We look forward to continuing our cyber security resilience journey with your team into the future.
Leksshmanan Alagappan, Director, Sys-Integrate
Thanks to Outfox for the team training on cyber resilience and sorting out our computer and cyber procedures. The Outfox team expertise has been top notch and they are always a pleasure to deal with.
Kirsten Rattray
Jan was fantastic to work with! She's really friendly and easy to talk to, great at translating what she means if you're not sure of the terminology, and gives a great report at the end of it! I highly recommend talking to Jan, her knowledge is really up to the minute about the latest threats and has great suggestions as to how you can protect yourself against cyber criminals even when you've already got good security in place!
Nicki Kane
Always a pleasure working with Jan and Wendy. They are experts in cyber security and I am always impressed with their knowledge and professionalism. They are an asset to New Zealand and I'm sure will do amazing things.

Jan is great to work with; knowledgeable, pragmatic and able to communicate complex IT / Cyber information simply. Her Cyber Health Check for the Foundation was an excellent starting point for us to develop our understanding of cyber security, areas of risk, and identify our knowledge gaps. Her suite of recommendations was all accepted by the Board and is being implemented.
