A Practical Guide to implementing ‘Secure by Design’

Secure by Design is a new initiative from the UK Government, aimed at bolstering digital security. Its core mission is to empower organisations with a standardised approach to secure digital services. It’s not just a government priority; it’s a mandate for commercial organisations, including critical national infrastructure and third-party entities.

Acuity’s in-depth whitepaper delves into the practical aspects of implementing Secure by Design, emphasising the criticality of a flexible and responsive understanding of the interplay between security threats and controls. It guides us on maintaining ‘always-on’ visibility of risk status compared to risk appetite throughout the entire lifecycle of digital services.
