Our Story

KEEP was established in late 2014 by Mark Whittaker with a bold vision: to challenge the status quo. For the past decade, we’ve been doing just that, consistently pushing boundaries and delivering innovative solutions and cyber security projects.

Our mission has always been to share our expertise, methodologies, and perspectives on cyber security and risk management. By empowering our clients with the knowledge and tools they need, we help them build and sustain robust cyber security capabilities.

From our beginnings, we’ve grown alongside a trusted team of skilled security consultants and associates. Today, we’re proud to be recognised as a leading independent cyber security consultancy, serving clients across the UK, Europe, and the Far East.

Our Core Values

Break the mould; cyber security is not a one size fits all approach. Like humans, all organisations are different and so are their associated risks and vulnerabilities.
Go Beyond the norm; KEEPs unparalleled experience, technical know-how and desire to impart our knowledge to secure organisations is at our core.
Think hostile; Understanding the likely attack paths, Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTP’s) that are most relevant to each organization we work with is critical, taking a “hostile” approach, akin to an attacker is paramount in everything we do.
Be pragmatic; We define controls, responses, threat modelling and mitigations that are pertinent to organisations small and large that have the greatest impact and return on investment (ROI) whilst maintaining relevance to your cyber security journey, risk appetite and risk appreciation.
