Security consulting

Penetration testing, cloud security, incident response, and secure delivery advice from a practitioner who has led the work in-house.

Attack surface management

Helping you see what you own, where the risk is, and which controls already help. We also build software for this when a point-in-time review is not enough.

Cloud and engineering

Azure and AWS security, secure software delivery, and custom tooling that fits the stack you already run.

Experience you can put to work

SecureSync Labs is led by Charlie Dean, a practitioner with more than ten years across consulting and in-house security leadership. The work is practical: assessments, advice, and embedding with the teams who have to fix what we find.

  • In-house security leadership

    Several years leading security inside a UK financial services organisation — cloud security, product security, incident response, and managing a team.

  • Independent consulting

    Penetration testing, vulnerability assessment, and security advice across financial services, legal, energy, education, and government.

  • Attack surface management

    Helping organisations understand what they actually own, where the risk sits, and how existing controls change that picture — not a scan of the public internet and a hope that nothing was missed.

How we work

SecureSync Labs was founded in 2023. It is deliberately small: you work with someone who has done the job, led teams, and stayed close to the delivery.

  • Hands-on

    Assessments, architecture, and engineering — not slideware.

  • Embedded

    We work with delivery teams, not around them.

  • Clear findings

    Risk explained in plain language, with a path to fix it.

  • UK-based

    A small consultancy that can move quickly without the overhead of a large firm.
