Cyber Security
Discover. Decide. Defend.
From IT security spend to control over risk. Most security fails for lack of decisions, not tools. You’ve bought detection, stacked tools and collected alerts. More signals, less oversight. Defenced, part of the Beyonder Group, shows you where the real risk is, then defends what you choose to protect.
The questions the dashboard can’t answer
- Where does my biggest risk actually sit?
- A first NIS2 or DORA obligation has landed, where is it demonstrated?
- The auditor wants proof, it's scattered across vendors. Now what?
- Separate suppliers each watch their own corner, who connects the signals?
- Tools, a SOC and scans cost money, what does it actually stop?
Turning cyber security into control
Security without direction is noise.
Discover
We map your situation, context and crown jewels, then show how an attacker would really reach them. You get a priority report within two to four weeks, with attack paths and business impact. Not a generic scan, but a concrete picture of where the risk lives.
Decide
We translate the technical findings into board-level choices. What gets fixed now, what waits, what you knowingly accept. Security budget goes to what matters, and the decisions hold up in front of your board and your insurer.
Defend
RADAR NextGen SOC monitors the risks you chose to protect, vendor-independent, day and night where you need it. Insight from Discover steers what gets watched, and feedback loops back, so the direction holds over time.
IT Security Services. Delivered.
Built, governed, hosted and defended in Europe.
CISO-as-a-Service
Senior security expertise deployed flexibly to fill in your NIS2, DORA, ISO 27001 and NCSC requirements.
Pentesting
Grey box, black box and white box tests run the way real attackers work. Concrete findings, concrete fixes.
Red Teaming
A sustained, realistic attack simulation that tests your detection and response capability, not just your defences.
NextGen SOC
A NextGen SOC that never sleeps. Monitoring of identity, network, cloud, SaaS and OT through an Open-XDR platform with AI-driven detection.
Discover Session
A structured assessment of your current security posture. Where the risks sit, what needs to happen and in what order.
CSIRT and Crisis Response
When a real incident hits, an expert is in action within three hours, day or night.
Cyber Resilience
Assessments, awareness and governance that build lasting security capability across the organization.
Threat Intelligence
Continuous intelligence that identifies new threats before they reach your environment. Watching, day and night, every day of the year.
Direction first, then protection.
We start with risk, not tools.
Cyber security in practice
Threats don't pause. We don't either.
Healthcare provider
Preparing for NEN7510 certification, with people as the main exposure. After Defenced ran the testing and training cycle, the phishing click rate dropped from 34% to 9%.
Manufacturer, OT network
A grey box test on the production network. Among the findings, an Active Directory misconfiguration let a standard user reach Domain Admin in under two hours.
Healthcare provider, external view
A black box test with phishing simulation. It surfaced a forgotten test environment exposing 2,900 patient records, and a four-year-old VPN gateway sitting open on the public internet.

We’d be happy to put you in touch with Defenced, part of the Beyonder Group. You’ll find the same kind of friendly faces there as you do here.
The questions you're already asking.
The common ones are ransomware, phishing of your people, exposed or forgotten services on the internet, identity and access misconfigurations, and gaps between systems such as cloud, SaaS and OT. Which matter most depends on your organization, which is exactly what the Discover Session works out.
We make compliance demonstrable, not theoretical. Findings, decisions and monitoring are documented so you can show an auditor, regulator or insurer what you do and why. That turns a checklist into evidence the board can stand behind.
A penetration test checks a defined system for vulnerabilities in a set window. Red teaming is broader and more realistic. It simulates a determined attacker over a longer period, across people, process and technology, to test whether you would actually detect and stop them.
Yes. Our entry level, Aware, is built for organizations with no in-house security team, a first NIS2 obligation, or an insurer that wants demonstrability. You get structural control without having to hire a full team first.
Start with risk, not tools. A Discover Session shows where your real exposure sits and how an attacker would reach it. You then decide what to fix first, and we defend what you chose to protect. Buying more detection without that direction tends to add cost, not control.
An expert is in action within three hours, day or night, weekends included. Because Discover and Decide already mapped your risk and priorities, the response starts from what matters most, not from scratch.
If you can’t fill the CISO role internally, or only need it part of the time, CISO-as-a-Service gives your board senior security leadership without a full-time hire. Many organizations use it to carry NIS2 or DORA responsibility while they grow their own capability.
A penetration test is a controlled attempt to break into your systems the way a real attacker would, so you find the weak points before someone else does. It’s worth doing before a launch, after a big change, on a regular cycle, or when an insurer or regulator asks for proof.
You get a priority report within two to four weeks. Cost depends on scope, which we set out in a transparent proposal after the session, so you know what you’re paying for and why. No lengthy upfront engagement is needed to start.
Yes. Our platforms are designed, built, run and defended in Europe, which keeps you compliant and in full control of your data. Monitoring is vendor-independent, so we correlate signals across systems rather than locking you into one supplier’s view.
