Example engagement
A municipality facing a cyber insurance renewal needed clarity on whether its controls were sufficient. A focused assessment identified key gaps, prioritized improvements, and produced documentation for the insurer. The renewal was successful, and the municipality had a clear roadmap for strengthening security over the next 12–24 months.
