sovereign cyber, for global-grade regulators & critical services
From Compliance Checklists To Measurable Cyber & Cloud Resilience
Deep InfoSec combines sovereign cloud architecture,
AI-driven monitoring via Deep Advisor, and
open governance standards (PASC, IGS-C, ONPC-RDC) to serve
CISOs, boards and regulators who care about four things:
real risk reduction, regulatory alignment,
innovation that does not add complexity, and
a proven record under audit pressure.
Advanced structural risk forecasting, board-grade scenario models, and an optional autonomous kill-switch layer are available under NDA for qualified customers and regulators.
Research-backed:
Built with 7+ universities & research centres and an
extended network of 60+ PhDs, MScs & senior certified experts.
Deep Advisor:
First solution accredited for IGS-C Risk Mapping (RM) and aligned with
PASC OSPCRM v1.0 for sovereign, explainable cyber risk.
CISOs & Boards:
2-minute brief + 90-day roadmap per critical service, ready for
regulators, auditors and investors.
Field-tested:
From 100+ years of DRC Département du Patrimoine archives to
SaaS, banks, hospitals & universities across EU & Africa.
We design and operate sovereign, standards-aligned architectures
that regulators, boards and auditors can trust. Our methods are
interoperable with CREST,
ANSSI's PASSI,
PASC,
IGS-C,
and professional registers such as
ONPC-RDC.

What we deliver
We cover the full chain: from architecture and sovereign cloud
design to implementation, monitoring and digitalisation.
Every engagement is built to satisfy both neuroscience-grounded
human decision-making (clear, simple signals for busy leaders)
and rigorous technical standards.
We design and implement cloud and hybrid infrastructures
that respect data sovereignty (African and European contexts),
reduce vendor lock-in, and simplify audits. Every design is
documented in plain language for boards and regulators, with clear
“if this fails, then what?” scenarios.
Ideal for regulators, banks, telcos, universities and
health systems.
Secure digitalisation & archives
From the DRC Département du Patrimoine (over a
century of archives) to universities’ research outputs, we build
end-to-end chains from scanning to metadata (DOI,
PSSN, ORCID) and secure storage. The result: documents that are
finally searchable, usable and protected.
Reduces loss, corruption and legal uncertainty for
institutions.
90-day Risk Compression Sprint
A focused engagement where we map your critical services, plug Deep Advisor
into existing tools and deliver a 3-number risk view plus a
traceable remediation plan your board and regulators can follow.
Deep Advisor + Expert Team (Managed Service)
Continuous, path-based prioritisation with named senior
architects. We keep risk, impact and time-to-recovery updated and generate
reusable packs for boards, audits and regulators.
Embedded Architect / War Room Support
Short- or mid-term placements of senior experts to handle
cloud migrations, NIS2/DORA readiness, M&A or crisis
situations. We work as part of your team, using your tools and your language.
Standards & Sovereignty Advisory
Targeted support to implement PASC, IGS-C, ONPC-RDC and related
frameworks so your architectures are sovereign, explainable and
audit-proof without locking you into a single vendor.
What you can expect in the first 90 days
Our goal is simple: in three months, you should be able to show your board
and regulators clear, measurable progress, not promises.
We map your critical services and dependencies, boil risk down to
three numbers (risk, business impact, time-to-recovery)
and tie each implemented fix to auditable, traceable risk
reduction. In similar engagements, small teams have cut
alert noise by up to 90 % by fixing root causes
instead of individual findings.
Critical map
Clear inventory of your critical services and their real dependencies.
Risk in 3 numbers
Risk, impact and time-to-recovery for each critical service.
Auditable fixes
Implemented changes linked to specific, traceable risk reduction.
Who we serve
Different actors have different fears: regulators fear systemic
failures, boards fear reputation and liability, hospitals fear
downtime and loss of life, SMBs fear a single attack that destroys
the business. We design our services to directly address these
concrete mental anchors.
Regulators & public authorities
We help ministries, central banks and sector regulators define
clear, measurable baselines for cyber, data protection and
operational resilience. Our work is compatible with international
frameworks & regulations like DORA/NIS2,
Pan-African standards (PASC, IGS-C, ONPC-RDC), and emerging African regulations (DRC, SADC, EAC,
OHADA, AU). The focus: sovereign architectures that minimise
vendor lock-in and simplify cross-border supervision and audits.
Hospitals, universities & critical services
For hospitals and universities, we combine secure digital
records, controlled access, and resilient backup
strategies. The aim is simple: in a crisis, the right person gets
the right information at the right time—with no ransom and
no guesswork.
Fortune 500 · Big 4 · large enterprises
We operate as a specialised sovereign partner for
complex groups that must satisfy multiple regulators and internal
audit teams. Our deliverables make it easy to show
traceable, testable progress instead of
PowerPoint promises.
SMBs & fast-growing teams
We provide right-sized architectures and policies
that protect revenue without blocking growth. The focus is on
quick wins: backups that actually restore, access that is
controlled, and a simple playbook if something
goes wrong.
Customer results with Deep InfoSec & Deep Advisor
Deep Advisor and our 128+ experts support global banks, insurers, SaaS providers,
hospitals and regulators. In every engagement we plug into the existing toolset
(vulnerability scanners, CI/CD, CSPM, SIEM, ticketing) and
prioritise real attack paths instead of flat lists of findings.
Our case studies are anonymised where needed, but always
quantified: alert volumes, noise reduction, number of engineers
involved, audit outcomes and regulator feedback.
European banking platform · Doing more with a DevOps-only team
A European banking platform being acquired by a large banking group had a
very small DevOps team with no dedicated security staff. At the
same time, they faced thousands of alerts from container scans, CI/CD checks,
code analyzers and cloud posture tools.
Deep Advisor ingested these alerts and grouped issues by root cause:
common base images, shared libraries, pipeline templates, mismanaged non-personal
accounts and secret-handling patterns. Instead of treating each alert separately,
the team could fix classes of problems in a few structural changes.
This approach also covered NPAs and secrets: rotation, privilege
elevation and JIT access were brought under control and documented as part of a
single, explainable prioritisation method. For the acquiring group and its
external auditor, this was crucial: showing that vulnerabilities, NPAs and
secrets were realistically managed was a pre-condition for the merger.
Deep InfoSec experts helped the team prepare and document this method for a
Big-4 audit, demonstrating that a small DevOps-only team could
control risk through path-based grouping and remediation instead
of chasing every individual alert.
Thousands → dozens
Alerts reduced to a small set of root causes.
3 engineers
Could fix classes of issues with limited time.
Audit passed
Merger conditions met with an explainable method.
Tier-1 European insurer · Prioritisation that matches reality
A leading European insurer was drowning in vulnerability and misconfiguration
data from several tools. Despite using EPSS, CVSS and customised thresholds,
too many unrelated flaws ended up in the same “critical” bucket,
while genuinely exploitable paths remained hidden in “medium” noise.
Deep Advisor ingested the existing scanner outputs and applied a different logic:
instead of scoring issues in isolation, it rebuilt real attack paths
into core insurance services and adjusted priority based on:
Whether a flaw provided initial entry, lateral movement or persistence.
Whether compensating controls (such as a WAF) were actually in place.
Whether an obsolete component was reachable in practice, not just “EOL on paper”.
As a result, vulnerabilities that formed exploitable chains into
policy, claims and portal systems were pulled up in priority, while generic EOL
and already-mitigated issues were pushed down. The CISO and teams finally had a
manageable, realistic remediation plan instead of flat CVSS/EPSS lists.
≈90% noise reduction
In the “must-fix now” backlog.
Chain-aware patching
Focus on entry + lateral movement + persistence.
Exploit-aligned
Priority driven by real paths, not just scores.
Global financial software provider · SaaS assurance
A global financial software and services company had to reassure banks and
asset-managers that its SaaS platforms met stringent security and
regulatory expectations in multiple jurisdictions.
Deep Advisor was used on a flagship platform to map
multi-tenant attack paths through APIs, Kubernetes, CI/CD
pipelines and cloud IAM. Deep InfoSec architects turned these into both
engineering backlogs and customer-facing security narratives
for due diligence and RFPs.
1 consolidated view
Of cross-tenant & supply-chain risk.
Reusable pack
For client DDQs, RFPs and audits.
Board-ready
Scenarios for internal architecture & risk boards.
Asia-headquartered Tier-1 bank (EU hub) · Multi-regulator view
The European hub of a Tier-1 bank needed a single, defensible picture of
cyber risk across trading, payments and reporting systems, under several
supervisors and regulatory regimes.
Deep Advisor and Deep InfoSec experts produced a set of
cross-system attack paths showing exactly how attackers could
move from internet, third parties or internal misuse to core platforms, along
with time-to-recovery estimates and concrete hardening steps.
Unified narrative
Used in board briefings and regulator meetings.
Cross-system view
Bridging silos between infra, apps and business.
Explainable method
Preferred by risk & audit over prior dashboards.
Some customers and individual experts are willing to be cited or to participate in
NDA-only reference calls. For public materials we anonymise names
and figures to respect contractual and regulatory constraints, while preserving the
structure and evidence of the results.
Led by ex-CISOs and global security architects, and connected to
7+ universities & research centres.
Deep InfoSec’s extended network includes 60+ PhDs, MScs and senior
certified experts across Europe, Africa and the Middle East.
Leadership & consultants · EU & EMEA
Deep InfoSec & Deep Advisor are led by practitioners who have run security,
risk and transformation in banks, hospitals and SaaS platforms across Europe,

packs to control mappings.
Deep Advisor and our 128+ experts support global banks, insurers, SaaS providers,
hospitals and regulators. In every engagement we plug into your existing toolset
and prioritise real attack paths into critical services instead
of flat lists of findings. Here is what this looks like for your profile.
CISO / Board / Regulator · What changes for you
You are flooded with dashboards, heatmaps and incident reports. The problem is
not a lack of data, it is a lack of coherent attack stories you
can defend in front of the board, auditors and regulators. We compress the noise
into 3–5 full attack paths per critical service, each one with
clear business impact and time-to-recovery.
“Critical” noise reduction
≈90% fewer items in the must-fix-now backlog (Tier-1 European insurer).
Explainable priorities
Priorities based on entry, lateral movement & persistence, not just scores.
For a Tier-1 European insurer, Deep Advisor rebuilt paths into policy, claims and
portal systems and pushed up chains where entry + movement + persistence aligned,
while pushing down generic end-of-life components that were practically
unreachable. The result: a remediation plan that both technical teams,
auditors and the CISO could endorse.
For an Asia-headquartered Tier-1 bank, we produced a single, cross-system
view of how attackers could move from internet, third parties or internal
misuse into trading, payments and reporting. This narrative was reused across
board briefings and multiple regulators, replacing fragments of
uncorrelated dashboards.
Board usefulness
3 numbers per service: risk, impact, time-to-recovery.
Regulatory alignment
Mapped to PASC, IGS-C and EU frameworks (NIS2, DORA) where applicable.
Large enterprise / SaaS / Big 4 · What changes for you
Your environment is complex: multiple business lines, legacy and cloud, and
several regulators or large clients. Every security decision has to survive
internal audit, external audit and client due diligence. We make
Deep Advisor outputs usable across all three layers.
For a European banking platform with a tiny DevOps-only team, we grouped scanner
outputs by root cause in the delivery chain (base images, shared
libraries, CI/CD templates, NPAs and secrets). This turned thousands of alerts
into a dozen structural fixes that could be implemented by three engineers while
preparing for acquisition by a larger bank.
Alert consolidation
Thousands of alerts → a handful of structural change items.
Reuse across audits
Same pack used for internal GRC, external audit & M&A due diligence.
For a global financial software provider (SaaS for banks and asset managers),
Deep Advisor mapped multi-tenant attack paths through APIs,
Kubernetes, CI/CD and cloud IAM. Deep InfoSec then turned this into:
Engineering backlogs that Dev, SRE and AppSec teams could own.
Reusable security narrative packs for RFPs and DDQs.
Board-friendly scenarios for architecture and risk committees.
Cross-tenant visibility
One consolidated view of tenant, platform & supply-chain exposure.
Sales & trust impact
Security packs reused for multiple regulated customers.
You probably do not have a full-time CISO or a large security team. Your DevOps
or IT lead is already overloaded, and every euro or dollar invested in security
must translate into visible reduction of business risk.
With Deep Advisor and our consultants, we focus on:
Backups and recovery that really work.
Attack paths that can stop your revenue for days or weeks.
Secrets, NPAs and admin accounts that can destroy trust in a single breach.
The European banking platform case shows that even a tiny DevOps-only
team can regain control: by grouping alerts by root cause, fixing a
dozen patterns instead of hundreds of individual findings, and documenting the
method for auditors and potential buyers.
Time-to-value
First structural fixes in weeks, not years.
Team capacity fit
Aligned to what 1–3 engineers can reasonably deliver.
Hospital / University / Public service · What changes for you
For hospitals and universities, the core fear is not “bad press”, it is
loss of life, loss of research and loss of public trust. You run
a mix of legacy systems, specialised applications and sensitive data that cannot
simply be “moved fast and broken”.
In healthcare and public services we combine Deep Advisor with secure
digitalisation:
Mapping attack paths to EMR/EHR, imaging and lab systems.
Securing the digitalisation process of patient records and archives.
Ensuring that backup and recovery plans are tested and documented.
For ministries and cultural departments we also handle long-term archives
(like the DRC Département du Patrimoine), ensuring that 50–100+ years of documents
become accessible, searchable and resilient to ransomware or physical damage.
Continuity of service
Critical services mapped with concrete downtime scenarios.
Archive resilience
From dusty rooms and old servers to redundant, queryable storage.
A quick look at how we use Deep Advisor to group findings into realistic attack paths,
compress critical noise and generate evidence your board and regulators can actually use.
Standards, certifications & independence
Deep InfoSec is deeply involved in the development of
open, vendor-neutral standards, while keeping its
role independent to avoid conflicts of interest. We
help clients adopt these standards for predictable, explainable results. In practice, our business model depends on your risks shrinking and staying low, not on selling fear, buzzwords or proprietary lock-in.
PASC
Pan-African Standards Council
Governance & cyber standards
IGS-C
International Governance & Security Consortium
Global, multi-regional alignment
ONPC-RDC
Ordre National des Professionnels Certifiés
Professional registry & ethics
Unlike proprietary product certification tracks, these frameworks are
public, negotiable and multi-stakeholder. Deep InfoSec trains
and implements them in the field, but does not own them:
they are designed to stand on their own and be reused by regulators,
auditors and other vendors.
Our role: Our global senior experts & independent partners network contribute, implement and operationalise
these frameworks inside real organisations—while maintaining
transparency and independence so that regulators,
auditors and external experts can trust the results.
We do this with an extended ecosystem of 7+ universities & research centres
and 60+ PhDs, MScs & senior certified experts, so methods remain
research-backed, testable and openly scrutinised.
Security & data handling. Deep Advisor and our consulting
work are operated with strict access control, regional data
residency (EU and Africa where required) and no resale or reuse of
customer artefacts. Our models and mappings are explainable so that
internal teams, auditors and regulators can verify how conclusions are reached.
How we work
Our method is deliberately simple. It respects how humans actually
make decisions under pressure: with limited time, attention and
working memory. We remove noise, surface what matters, and then fix
it with you.
1 · Map what really exists
Short interviews, targeted technical checks, and Deep Advisor
analytics to see what is actually deployed (not
what is written in policy documents). We summarise the risk in
three sentences and one visual for leadership.
2 · Prioritise by impact, not fear
We rank issues by business impact, legal exposure and
recovery time, not by fashion or buzzwords. This taps
into natural loss aversion: leaders instinctively focus on
what could hurt the most and act there first.
3 · Implement sovereign, auditable fixes
We design and implement concrete changes (cloud,
on-prem, hybrid, digitalisation chains) that are fully documented
and testable. Each change is linked to a clear risk
reduction, making it easy to justify investments.
4 · Monitor & improve continuously
With Deep Advisor we provide ongoing analytics,
and with PASC / IGS-C we keep your posture
aligned with evolving regulations. No black boxes—just
explainable, sovereign oversight.
For regulated entities, we can provide full documentation packs
(standards, mappings, case studies) under NDA or public-only, depending on your needs.
Why CISOs reach out to Deep InfoSec
When CISOs with 10–20 years of experience contact us, they usually mention the
same four reasons. If these resonate, we are probably a good fit.
1 · Proven risk reduction
Not just compliance checklists. We group issues by root cause,
rebuild real attack paths and show before/after risk,
impact and time-to-recovery per critical service.
2 · Regulatory alignment
From DORA/NIS2 to PASC, IGS-C, ONPC-RDC and regional rules (DRC, SADC, EAC,
OHADA, AU), our architectures are built to survive multi-regulator
scrutiny without locking you into a single vendor.
3 · Innovation without extra complexity
Deep Advisor plugs into your existing stack and reduces noise instead of
adding another dashboard. Small teams can fix classes of problems
instead of chasing individual alerts.
4 · Trusted under audit pressure
Our work has been used in Big 4 audits, merger due diligence and
regulator grilling in banking, insurance and SaaS. We provide
explainable, evidence-backed narratives auditors can follow.
Contact & next steps
Whether you are a regulator, a Fortune 500, a hospital, a university
or an SMB, the first step is the same: a short, structured
conversation to understand your context and show you what
can be improved in 90 days or less.
You are in the right place if:
Your board demands actionable cyber & cloud numbers, not jargon.
You face new regulation or cross-border supervision (DORA, NIS2, AU, SADC, EAC).
You are responsible for hospitals, banks, universities or public services that cannot afford downtime.
Send us a short email describing your role, your
biggest operational fear (what keeps you up at
night), and any upcoming audit or regulatory deadline.
We will respond with a concrete 90-day roadmap and propose a
workshop with the right mix of technical and non-technical
stakeholders.
Typical first move from CISOs and regulators: an email with your role, your biggest
operational fear (for example, “lateral movement in multi-cloud”)
and a Q1/Q2 deadline. We respond with a 90-day roadmap and a
proposed workshop slot.
