Industries
Sector context is not optional.
Effective security consulting requires understanding the regulatory and operational reality of the industry you're working in.
Financial Services & Fintech
Financial organisations operate at the intersection of regulatory scrutiny, high-value data, and sophisticated threat actors. Whether you're a regulated bank, a payment processor, or a fintech startup approaching your first FCA engagement, your security posture must satisfy both internal risk frameworks and external compliance requirements — PCI-DSS, ISO 27001, FCA operational resilience guidance, and DORA for EU-facing operations. PredX understands the dual pressure financial services organisations face: the need to move fast and innovate, while maintaining the control environment expected by regulators and enterprise clients. Our penetration testing and vulnerability assessments are scoped to reflect the actual attack surface of financial systems — not generic infrastructure reviews repackaged with a finance label.
Healthcare & Life Sciences
Healthcare organisations hold some of the most sensitive data in existence, and face threat actors who have demonstrated willingness to disrupt patient care to extract payment. The combination of legacy systems, interconnected medical devices, and complex supply chains creates an attack surface that demands rigorous, specialist assessment. PredX works with healthcare providers, digital health companies, and life sciences organisations to identify vulnerabilities before attackers do. We understand the operational constraints of healthcare environments — the need to test without disruption, the importance of protecting patient data throughout the engagement, and the regulatory landscape that includes UK DSPT, GDPR, and sector-specific NHS security standards. Our ISO 27001 gap analysis engagements are particularly well-suited to healthcare organisations preparing for Cyber Essentials Plus or approaching a formal certification programme.
Technology Companies
Technology companies face a unique security challenge: their product is often the attack surface. Web applications, APIs, cloud infrastructure, and CI/CD pipelines are all potential entry points — and the speed of development in technology organisations means that vulnerabilities are introduced continuously. PredX works with SaaS companies, platform businesses, and enterprise software vendors to secure their products and infrastructure. We conduct web application and API penetration tests that go beyond automated scanning to test business logic, authentication flows, and authorisation boundaries. We also work with technology companies preparing for SOC 2 Type II audits or ISO 27001 certification, helping them understand their current control gaps and build a structured path to compliance without disrupting their development velocity.
Professional Services & Legal
Professional services firms — law firms, accountancies, management consultancies, and similar practices — hold sensitive client data, intellectual property, and privileged communications that make them attractive targets for both opportunistic attackers and nation-state actors engaged in economic espionage. The legal sector in particular has seen a significant increase in targeted attacks, including business email compromise, ransomware, and data theft. Many professional services firms operate without a dedicated security function, making external specialist support essential. PredX provides proportionate, practical security consulting to professional services organisations — helping them understand their real exposure, prioritise remediation, and demonstrate appropriate security posture to clients who increasingly mandate it as a condition of engagement.
