Our client's Chief Information Security Officer needed a major update to their organizational structure. The goal was to match the company's growth, embrace digitalization, enhance compliance, adopt agile practices, and empower leadership. We were brought in to lead a complete overhaul of the information security department, spanning six countries.

‍

We kicked off with a deep dive into both external and internal factors that would shape the new organization. Four key changes emerged. First, we introduced a business information security officer team to sharpen risk alignment with business priorities. Second, we established new units focused on governance, risk, and compliance to meet the demands of regulatory-driven security and a unified governance framework. Third, a new cyber security and threat consulting unit was set up to embed security-by-design across the company and instill a breach-prevention mindset throughout the value chain. Finally, we rolled out compliance programs designed to ensure resilient capabilities in line with the latest regulatory standards. Alongside this, we helped break down roles, define deliverables, and create communication materials to support both current and future resources globally.

The revamped organizational model got the green light from stakeholders, delivering these key impacts:

• Alignment with the company's globalization and operational model.
• Enhanced focus on regulatory and compliance priorities.
• Scalable services ready for stakeholder delivery.
