SiSS works primarily with organisations operating in regulated or high-risk environments, including financial services, fintech, healthcare, mining, logistics, and enterprise technology environments. We support organisations subject to regulatory, contractual, or standards-based security obligations.

Both. Our approach integrates regulatory compliance with practical technical security implementation. We ensure controls are not only compliant on paper, but implemented, tested, and defensible in real operational environments.

We support a range of international and local frameworks, including: • ISO/IEC 27001 (Information Security Management Systems) • ISO 22301 (Business Continuity Management) • ISO/IEC 27701 (Privacy Information Management) • POPIA (Protection of Personal Information Act) • FSCA / Prudential Authority (Joint Standard on Cybersecurity and Cyber Resilience) • NIST Cybersecurity Framework

Yes. We assist organisations in preparing for internal audits, certification audits, and regulatory reviews by assessing control maturity, identifying gaps, and supporting remediation. Our focus is on audit readiness and evidence-based assurance.

We provide both. Depending on client needs, we deliver: • Gap assessments and risk reviews • Policy and control framework development • Hands-on implementation support • Independent assurance and validation Our services can be advisory, delivery-focused, or a combination of both.

Yes. We provide Virtual CISO and retained advisory services for organisations that require ongoing security leadership, regulatory guidance, and strategic oversight without employing a full-time CISO.

SiSS focuses on practical implementation and regulatory defensibility rather than generic assessments or tool-driven engagements. We work closely with leadership and technical teams to ensure controls operate effectively and align with business realities.

Absolutely. We collaborate with internal IT, security, risk, and compliance teams, as well as external service providers, to strengthen controls without disrupting existing operations.

You can start by contacting us directly for an initial discussion. We typically begin with a short scoping conversation to understand your environment, regulatory requirements, and objectives before proposing an appropriate engagement approach.
