The challenge

A growing online retailer had separate suppliers for devices, website hosting, payments and Microsoft 365, but no single view of security ownership or recovery priorities.

The security approach

The security programme maps critical services, assigns supplier responsibilities, adds MDR, validates Microsoft 365 recovery and creates an incident and communications plan.

The outcome

Management gains a joined-up view of cyber dependencies and can prioritise the controls that preserve order processing, customer communication and finance operations.

Start with the revenue path

For e-commerce businesses, resilience work begins by mapping how customers order, how staff fulfil, how payments reconcile and how the business communicates when a supplier fails.
