The firm behind the advisory
Lausey Technology is the commercial cybersecurity advisory and risk management firm I founded. Where an engagement calls for a delivery organization — assessments, implementation, GRC programmes, vulnerability management or sustained capability building — that work is carried out through Lausey.
