Consulting Capabilities

No other practice can offer the depth of understanding that Reed PS and our specialist security partner provides in Information Assurance consulting.

Pre-eminent players in this field, our consultants know about securing information assets within a complex business, operational and regulatory framework.

We have encoded our unique wealth of experience onto a proprietary knowledge platform. This means our clients benefit from fact-based, fully informed advice derived from years of hands-on experience and expertise.

These are the three principal focus areas to our Information Assurance practice:

Solutions Architecture

Success in information assurance requires a deep understanding of the complex interactions between people, processes, technologies and compliance. This is the principal contribution of our Solutions Architects.

Our people are professionals who bring considerable information security and systems architecture experience - plus strong strategy, policy and high-level design skills, underpinned with broad technical ability.

We apply these skills in close collaboration with our expert colleagues in the Security Consulting and Infrastructure Services practices; and are accustomed to handling large, complex projects in partnership with systems integrators.

Security Consulting

We can help clients manage information-based risks that can damage finances or reputation. Clients choose us because of our breadth of experience, our record of success in delivering complex security solutions to address business issues - and our unique blend of security knowledge and skills that range right through from strategy to technology.

Typical examples include:

• Strategy and Appraisal
• Risk Assessment
• Standards and compliance review
• Secure Networks
• Secure Enterprise Applications
• Secure Mobile Working

Infrastructure Services

Organisations strive to simplify and rationalise infrastructures. But the transitioning process can throw up major issues around migrating to updated platforms, managing change to avoid security vulnerabilities and balancing the benefits of emerging technologies with investment in legacy systems. We are specialists in secure application and infrastructure enablement. We have significant experience in the delivery of large, complex projects for both private and public sectors. These include:

• Citrix deployments
• Microsoft roll-outs
• Active Directory transformations
• Vulnerability assessments
