IsecT Limited is an IT governance consultancy with skills and expertise in information security management, IT risk management and computer auditing, and clearly a deep fondness for information security awareness.  We are based in sunny Hawke’s Bay on the East coast of New Zealand’s North Island.

Security awareness is an enduring interest that belies our true passion: working with people to improve information security.

For decades, our consultants have operated and supported computer systems and networks, undertaken risk assessments, planned, implemented, managed and audited system security controls, built ISO27k-compliant Information Security Management Systems, written security policies, technical baseline security standards and procedures, managed information security and computer audit functions for major multinationals in various industries and consulted for all sorts of organizations.  We have worked with literally hundreds of organizations on the ISO/IEC standards, audited literally thousands of computer systems and interacted with no end of real people doing real jobs - everyone from barely-literate security guards through classical IT gurus to extremely switched-on engineering professors doing rocket science (yes, literally!).  We actively contribute to a range of information security, computer audit, IT risk management and governance newsgroups, professional membership bodies and international standards committees, and have presented to numerous conferences as well as dozens of management teams on all manner of information security topics.

With that experience behind us, we have the qualifications and knowledge to prepare high quality security awareness guidelines that are not just technically accurate but actually work in practice .  Indeed we have designed, built, delivered and managed information security awareness programs for clients using the very concepts now embodied in NoticeBored.

IsecT Ltd. was incorporated in the UK in July 2002.  We designed NoticeBored and launched the product a year later and it continues evolving to this day.  We pride ourselves on the innovation, creativity and quality demonstrated by NoticeBored, while excellent feedback from our valued customers gives us immense personal pleasure.

IsecT Ltd. is deliberately structured as a “virtual company” meaning a small permanent core staff working in conjunction with a network of trusted partners and suppliers.  This arrangement minimizes our fixed overheads and gives us the flexibility to adapt rapidly to the marketplace whilst being able to draw upon the skills of like-minded specialists in information security, awareness, IT, computer graphics, law, marketing and other fields as necessary.  We see no need to run our own email server, for a trivial example, when we can contract with qualified professionals to do just that.  We refer non-core business leads to our partners and warmly welcome information security and especially security awareness referrals from all sources, not least our satisfied customers.  We focus on our core business strengths (working with people on information security - come on, keep up!).  We are living proof that high quality and attention to detail do not necessarily mean high prices.

Honesty and integrity are extremely important values for us, not just in the security awareness materials we produce but in the way we live and breathe.  We could easily hide behind this website like so many faceless web companies but the truth is that we would much rather be up-front with you about the passions that drive us.  We enjoy the odd touch of humor and occasional cynicism that creeps into the NoticeBored materials every now and then, and always we welcome constructive criticism.  If this approach strikes a chord with you, whether you are a potential customer, partner or supplier, please get in touch.  What’s your passion?
