Privacy & security programmes shaped by the industry you operate in.

Compliance is never one-size-fits-all. A bank needs PCI DSS and AML controls; a hospital needs HIPAA and clinical-data governance; a SaaS needs SOC 2 and customer DPAs at scale. We bring playbooks honed across 15+ industries so you don't pay to learn the basics twice.

Industries we serve

Sectors we work across, every week.

Each industry brings its own risk profile, regulator and customer-trust threshold. Below is what is changing right now in each one - and how we help.

Operating across borders?

One control set, every jurisdiction.

We help global operators map a single, evidenced control set onto every framework that applies to them - GDPR, CCPA, ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, Kenya DPA and more. No duplicate work; no surprise gaps.

Financial services

Banking

Customer-trust-grade privacy for retail, corporate and digital-only banks.

Banking
PCI DSS ISO 27001 GDPR AML Open Banking

Why it matters

Banks sit on some of the most sensitive personal and financial data in any economy. Regulators - from the ECB to the Central Bank of Kenya - now treat data protection failures with the same seriousness as prudential and AML failures. A breach is no longer a tech incident; it is a board-level event.

01 How we help

GDPR / UK GDPR / Kenya DPA programmes mapped to your core-banking, channel and card platforms.

02 How we help

PCI DSS v4.0 scoping, segmentation and ASV-scan readiness for card environments.

03 How we help

AML / KYC data flows, retention rules and customer-consent journeys.

04 How we help

Open-banking APIs, third-party-provider DPAs and TPP risk reviews.

05 How we help

Board-grade incident-response retainers with regulator-notification drafts on standby.

Financial services

Fintech & Payments

Compliance that scales with you - from sandbox to scale-up.

Fintech & Payments
SOC 2 PCI DSS PSD2 ISO 27001 GDPR

Why it matters

Fintech moves fast - but the regulatory bar moves faster. Card networks, central banks and privacy regulators all want assurance. Enterprise partners and acquiring banks want SOC 2 and ISO 27001 before they will integrate. We help you ship both.

01 How we help

SOC 2 Type I → II and ISO 27001 certification readiness in 12-16 weeks.

02 How we help

PCI DSS v4.0 with customised approaches that fit modern, container-native architectures.

03 How we help

PSD2, open-banking and lawful-basis design for new product lines.

04 How we help

Cross-border transfer mechanisms (SCCs, IDTAs, TIAs) tailored to your processor stack.

05 How we help

Embedded vDPO retainers so you ship product instead of paperwork.

Financial services

Insurance

Privacy that holds up across underwriters, brokers and claims handlers.

Insurance
GDPR Art. 9 NAIC ISO 27701 DPIA Vendor risk

Why it matters

Insurers process special-category data (health, biometrics, criminal) across long retention windows and complex broker / re-insurer ecosystems. Get the data flow right once and the compliance overhead drops dramatically.

01 How we help

Article 9 / sensitive-personal-information lawful bases for underwriting and claims.

02 How we help

Broker, MGA and re-insurer DPA frameworks - one template set, many partners.

03 How we help

Telematics, wearables and IoT-derived data: consent, fairness and DPIA.

04 How we help

Anti-fraud data sharing under approved codes of conduct.

05 How we help

Claims-handler training that meaningfully changes behaviour.

Regulated & public

Healthcare & Pharma

PHI-grade rigour for providers, payers and life-sciences.

Healthcare & Pharma
HIPAA HITECH GDPR Art. 9 EHDS FDA

Why it matters

Patient trust is everything. Beyond HIPAA in the US and GDPR in Europe, you face research-data rules, country-specific health acts and growing scrutiny of AI-driven diagnostics. We design a single programme that satisfies all of them.

01 How we help

HIPAA Security & Privacy Rule risk analysis, BAAs and breach-notification playbooks.

02 How we help

GDPR Article 9, EHDS readiness and clinical-trial data governance.

03 How we help

De-identification, pseudonymisation and secondary-use frameworks.

04 How we help

Medical-device cybersecurity (FDA, MDR) and SaMD lifecycle controls.

05 How we help

Patient-rights, consent and DSAR workflows that work across EHR, billing and apps.

Regulated & public

Education & EdTech

Programmes that put student privacy first - and keep procurement happy.

Education & EdTech
FERPA COPPA GDPR Kenya DPA DPIA

Why it matters

Education organisations handle minors' data, sensitive academic records and a fast-changing EdTech vendor stack. Procurement gates are getting harder: parents, school boards and Ministries of Education want evidence, not promises.

01 How we help

FERPA / COPPA / GDPR programmes for schools, universities and EdTech vendors.

02 How we help

Vendor-due-diligence packs that move you to the front of any RfP queue.

03 How we help

Online-proctoring and AI-grading DPIAs that are actually defensible.

04 How we help

Parental-consent and age-verification flows that don't hurt enrolment.

05 How we help

Privacy training and acceptable-use that students and faculty will actually use.

Regulated & public

Government & Non-profit

Citizen-data trust, transparency and disclosure - balanced.

Government & Non-profit
Kenya ATI GDPR UK DPA Biometric DPIA

Why it matters

Public bodies and NGOs face a double burden: protect personal data under privacy law, while honouring rights of access under freedom-of-information statutes. We help you reconcile both without paralysing the organisation.

01 How we help

Privacy programmes aligned to GDPR, UK GDPR, Kenya DPA and the Access to Information Act, 2016.

02 How we help

Data-sharing agreements between agencies, donors and implementing partners.

03 How we help

Biometric and identity-system DPIAs grounded in proportionality and necessity.

04 How we help

Whistleblower, complaints and child-safeguarding data flows.

05 How we help

Public-trust comms playbooks for breach and disclosure events.

Regulated & public

Telecoms & ISPs

Communications metadata, lawful access and ePrivacy, handled.

Telecoms & ISPs
ePrivacy NIS2 GDPR Lawful access PCI DSS

Why it matters

Telecoms operators face ePrivacy on top of general data-protection law - and lawful-interception duties that have to coexist with subscriber-privacy commitments. Get the framework right and you cut both regulatory and reputational risk.

01 How we help

ePrivacy / PECR direct-marketing and cookie compliance for B2C channels.

02 How we help

Lawful access frameworks - clear roles, audit trails and oversight.

03 How we help

Subscriber-data retention rules across multiple jurisdictions.

04 How we help

Network-incident playbooks aligned to NIS2 and local CERT obligations.

05 How we help

Roaming, MVNO and partner DPAs.

Digital & commercial

SaaS & Technology

Enterprise-ready trust, without slowing down product.

SaaS & Technology
SOC 2 ISO 27001 GDPR CAIQ SIG

Why it matters

Every B2B SaaS deal now comes with a 200-question security questionnaire and a DPA mark-up. Without SOC 2, ISO 27001 and a credible privacy story, deals stall in legal review. We make the whole motion repeatable.

01 How we help

SOC 2 Type I + II readiness and audit support.

02 How we help

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 ISMS design and certification.

03 How we help

GDPR / CCPA / Kenya DPA processor obligations and standard DPAs.

04 How we help

Sub-processor management, transparency and customer notifications.

05 How we help

Trust-center sites, security pages and standardised questionnaire responses (CAIQ, SIG).

Digital & commercial

E-commerce & Retail

Convert more, ask less, prove it - cookie consent that respects revenue.

E-commerce & Retail
CCPA GDPR ePrivacy PCI DSS Consent

Why it matters

Retail and e-commerce live and die by marketing data - but cookie-consent enforcement is now severe across the EU, UK, California and beyond. The good news: a well-designed consent and preferences experience improves conversion as well as compliance.

01 How we help

Consent management aligned to GDPR, CCPA, LGPD and ePrivacy.

02 How we help

Loyalty, marketing and personalisation data flows with proper legal bases.

03 How we help

PCI DSS scope reduction with tokenisation and hosted-payment-page strategies.

04 How we help

Direct-marketing rules across email, SMS and push.

05 How we help

Returns, fraud and customer-service data minimisation.

Industrial & supply chain

Manufacturing & Logistics

Privacy for the connected factory, fleet and supply chain.

Manufacturing & Logistics
NIS2 ISO 27001 GDPR IoT DPIA OT Security

Why it matters

IoT, predictive maintenance and connected logistics generate huge personal-data footprints (employees, drivers, customers) - and a complex web of OEM, contractor and customer obligations. Compliance has to live with operations, not next to it.

01 How we help

OT / IT segmentation, asset inventory and supplier-data governance.

02 How we help

Employee monitoring, vehicle telematics and workplace-surveillance DPIAs.

03 How we help

NIS2, ISO 27001 and trade-secret protection programmes.

04 How we help

Cross-border supply-chain DPAs and SCCs.

05 How we help

Incident-response retainers that understand OT-recovery realities.

Industrial & supply chain

Energy & Utilities

Critical-infrastructure-grade controls, citizen-data sensitivity.

Energy & Utilities
NIS2 GDPR ISO 27001 Smart Meter DPIA

Why it matters

Smart-meter rollouts, EV charging and prosumer markets make energy companies privacy-relevant in ways they were not a decade ago. Layer on critical-infrastructure rules and the bar is genuinely high.

01 How we help

Smart-metering, EV-charging and prosumer privacy programmes.

02 How we help

NIS2 / critical-infrastructure resilience and reporting.

03 How we help

Customer-rights, vulnerable-customer and energy-debt data governance.

04 How we help

OT-security partnerships for SCADA and DCS environments.

05 How we help

Regulator engagement (Ofgem, EPRA, etc.) on data-sharing initiatives.

Industrial & supply chain

Hospitality, Travel & Tourism

Guest data, loyalty and global operations - quietly compliant.

Hospitality, Travel & Tourism
GDPR PCI DSS CCTV DPIA Loyalty

Why it matters

Hotels, airlines and tour operators handle guest data across every imaginable jurisdiction. Loyalty, OTA distribution and concierge AI all add new privacy questions. We make compliance routine, not a guest-experience friction.

01 How we help

Cross-border transfer mechanisms across IATA, GDS and OTA partners.

02 How we help

Loyalty & personalisation programmes with proper legal bases.

03 How we help

Front-desk identity-verification and CCTV DPIAs.

04 How we help

Guest-rights workflows that work in 30+ countries.

05 How we help

PCI DSS for distributed property-management systems.

Knowledge & services

Media, Adtech & Publishing

Audience data, journalism exemptions and the post-cookie world.

Media, Adtech & Publishing
TCF v2.2 GDPR ePrivacy AI Disclosure

Why it matters

Adtech sits at the centre of every privacy-regulator crackdown of the last five years. Publishers want to keep monetising - without becoming the next enforcement headline. We help engineer the middle path.

01 How we help

TCF v2.2 consent design and vendor-list governance.

02 How we help

Server-side tagging and first-party-data strategies.

03 How we help

Journalism / public-interest GDPR exemptions, applied carefully.

04 How we help

Direct-marketing, contests and competition rules.

05 How we help

AI-generated content disclosures and intellectual-property safeguards.

Industrial & supply chain

Real Estate & Construction

Tenant, occupant and site-data - protected end to end.

Real Estate & Construction
GDPR CCTV DPIA IoT ESG Reporting

Why it matters

Real estate has quietly become data-rich: smart buildings, CCTV, access control, marketing platforms and tenant portals all combine to create real privacy exposure. Investors and lenders increasingly want assurance too.

01 How we help

Tenant-portal, marketing and tenant-screening data governance.

02 How we help

Smart-building, IoT and access-control DPIAs.

03 How we help

Construction-site CCTV, biometric attendance and contractor data.

04 How we help

ESG-grade privacy reporting for investors and lenders.

Regulated & public

NGOs, Humanitarian & Development

Beneficiary-data protection, donor trust and cross-border programme work.

NGOs, Humanitarian & Development
GDPR Kenya DPA Do No Harm Biometric DPIA

Why it matters

Humanitarian and development organisations work with the most vulnerable people - the duty of care for their data is correspondingly high. Donor reporting, regulator demands and partner data sharing all add complexity.

01 How we help

Beneficiary-data governance built around do-no-harm principles.

02 How we help

Donor, partner and grant-management DPAs.

03 How we help

Biometric, identity-management and case-management DPIAs.

04 How we help

Cross-border programme data flows with practical safeguards.

05 How we help

Staff and volunteer privacy training in multiple languages.

Common questions

About our industry experience.

Don't see your sector? Tell us about it - chances are we have worked there before, or know exactly who has.

Do you only serve regulated industries?

No - we work across regulated and non-regulated sectors. The common thread is organisations that take customer trust and data protection seriously, regardless of whether a regulator is actively breathing down their neck.

How do you adapt programmes by industry?

We start with your industry's threat model, customer expectations and regulatory exposure - then layer on the cross-cutting frameworks (GDPR, CCPA, ISO 27001, SOC 2). The control set is industry-tuned; the evidence model is universal.

Do you have references in my industry?

Yes - we maintain a roster of reference clients across most of the industries above. After a first call, we can introduce you to someone in your sector who has been through what you are about to do.

What if our sector isn't listed?

We have served clients in agriculture, mining, gaming, sports, religious bodies and more. Reach out and we will tell you honestly whether we are the right fit - or refer you to someone who is.

Can you support international, multi-jurisdictional operations?

Yes - most of our clients operate across multiple countries. We design programmes that work in the EU, UK, US, Middle East, Africa and Asia-Pacific in parallel, with local language and regulatory know-how.

Let's talk

Make privacy a strategic advantage in your sector.

A 30-minute working session, a one-page memo of the frameworks that actually apply to you, and a concrete plan - all at no cost.
