A European Bank

A European bank was tasked with delivering a major transformation within its cybersecurity function, designed to elevate security standards and meet pressing regulatory requirements.

The challenge

As the scope deviated from its original objectives, the project experienced significant delays due to limited change capacity within internal teams, placing key compliance milestones at risk.

Recognising the urgency, the client sought expert support to re-align efforts and focus on addressing the most critical tasks against tight deadlines.

The solution

Our banking regulatory experts and cybersecurity SMEs stepped in as strategic partners, swiftly taking control of the project to refocus efforts on what mattered most.

Through fully traceable mapping against regulatory obligations, our team established a clear link between the legal requirements and project scope, translating them into actionable deliverables.

Faced with imminent deadlines, we applied a risk-based approach to the remaining items within the project, concentrating on the quick wins and initiatives that would address the highest levels of risk.

At the same time, we worked closely with internal teams to consolidate evidence and data, creating a robust reporting function that provided clear visibility of progress and empowered data-led decision-making.

The impact

We brought the project back under control, rapidly driving delivery while providing focused cybersecurity and regulatory expertise.
