Milestone 04 · Cyber security

Cyber Security Planning, Protection & Service Ownership

Make cyber security part of the operating service. We connect the controls your organisation needs with the people, applications, devices and infrastructure they are intended to protect.

What this milestone achieves

Security decisions need a clear view of what matters to the organisation and how information moves. We review the relevant users, systems, access routes and existing controls, then agree a practical scope for reducing exposure. Priorities should be tied to your environment and responsibilities rather than a generic list of products.

The agreed service can cover identity and access controls, endpoint and network protection, infrastructure hardening, monitoring and incident preparation. Where specialist testing, assurance or additional security services are needed, the method, permissions and delivery scope are confirmed before work begins.

What the agreed delivery can include

01

A scoped security plan

The systems, information, current controls and priority actions are recorded. The plan identifies dependencies and the people authorised to accept decisions.

02

Appropriate protection and visibility

Agreed controls are configured around the supported environment. Access, device and network measures are connected to useful monitoring and administration responsibilities.

03

Clear incident and escalation responsibilities

The service defines how suspected incidents are raised, who coordinates the next action and which internal or external parties need to be involved.

Clear ownership, without gaps between teams

Britixo owns the security work included in the agreed service. Your organisation retains its business risk decisions, user authorisations and applicable legal obligations. We identify third-party responsibilities and agree the monitoring coverage, response process and review schedule so your team understands how protection is maintained.

How it connects to the next step

Security actions feed into the software, hosting, communications and device work rather than ending as an isolated checklist. The managed support handover records the controls to maintain, the agreed monitoring and the route for incidents or changes that affect the risk picture.
