Fornost connects business risk, security architecture, engineering and assurance so organizations can transform securely without creating another security silo.
Aligned to leading security, risk and regulatory frameworks
Our service portfolio spans executive advisory, enterprise architecture, engineering, cyber defense and assurance. Engagements can be focused on one domain or coordinated as a multi-year transformation roadmap.
Translate business priorities and regulatory obligations into a defensible security program.
Security strategy, maturity assessment, operating model, investment roadmap, board reporting, risk appetite and virtual/fractional security leadership.
Enterprise cyber risk models, BIA, control libraries, policies, regulatory mapping, audit readiness, evidence governance and remediation.
Privacy-by-design, data classification, retention, data loss prevention and governance models that connect sensitive data to business and regulatory risk.
Vendor security governance, due diligence, risk tiering, contractual security requirements and continuous third-party assurance.
Design secure target states and control patterns across hybrid enterprise environments.
Target-state architecture, security principles, reference architectures, segmentation models, trust boundaries and architecture governance.
IAM, PAM, identity governance, least privilege, Conditional Access and authentication architectures for workforce and privileged identities.
Network security architecture, micro-segmentation, secure connectivity, endpoint protection, hardening and enterprise security baselines.
Cloud security architecture, landing-zone controls, posture management, workload protection and secure Microsoft 365 / hybrid-cloud operating models.
Embed security in software, platforms and data flows before production risk is created.
Threat modeling, SSDLC, secure design review, SAST/DAST/SCA governance, API security and security gates integrated into delivery pipelines.
Data discovery, classification, encryption, DLP, information protection, insider-risk controls and secure data lifecycle architecture.
Security architecture and risk assessment for operational technology, industrial control environments, connected devices and edge systems.
Security governance for AI systems, emerging platforms and cryptographic change — including AI risk, model/data controls and quantum-readiness planning.
Continuously validate exposure, detect threats and build the ability to withstand and recover from incidents.
SOC architecture, SIEM onboarding, correlation and detection use cases, automation, threat hunting and EDR/XDR operating-model improvement.
Risk-based vulnerability management, attack-surface discovery, remediation governance, credentialed scanning and continuous exposure reduction.
Independent technical assurance across applications, APIs, networks and cloud environments, including red-team and attack-simulation coordination.
Incident readiness, response playbooks, forensic coordination, ransomware preparedness, crisis exercises, BCP/DR security and recovery assurance.
Security awareness and human-risk programs, security tool selection and PoCs, control automation, security metrics/KPIs/KRIs, audit remediation and managed/co-managed operating-model design can be incorporated into any engagement.
Cybersecurity programs fail when risk, architecture, engineering and audit run as separate systems. Our operating model keeps the business objective, technical control and evidence chain connected.
Start with critical services, business impact and risk appetite.
Turn risk into target states, patterns and guardrails.
Measure control operation, exposure and remediation continuously.
Business context • assets • threats • regulatory obligations • current-state evidence
Target state • security principles • control model • ownership • roadmap
Hardening • IAM • cloud • AppSec • network • data • security tooling
Telemetry • SIEM/XDR • detection • automation • response • recovery
Evidence • testing • audit • metrics • findings • continuous assurance
Fornost Security is built around one principle: cybersecurity becomes valuable when strategy, architecture, engineering, operations and governance reinforce each other.
Our mission is to turn cyber risk into practical architecture, controls and operating models that teams can implement, measure and improve.
We envision organizations that can innovate faster because security, resilience and assurance are designed into every layer of the enterprise.
Build security into architecture and delivery rather than adding controls after the fact.
Prioritize what materially reduces business exposure and strengthens critical services.
Select technologies against capability, integration, operating fit and measurable outcomes.
Use evidence, telemetry and control effectiveness to guide decisions and assurance.
Engagements are shaped around the outcome you need — from independent review to architecture ownership, implementation support and ongoing advisory.
Independent review, maturity assessment, risk analysis and prioritized recommendations.
Target-state design, security roadmap, control architecture and transformation governance.
Implementation support, hardening, integration, use cases, policies and operating procedures.
Ongoing CISO/architecture support, control validation, metrics, audit readiness and improvement.
