OUR PARTNER NETWORK
Who we work with
Our partner network is designed for organisations whose clients already rely on them for technology, business or professional support.
This can include:
Managed Service Providers and IT support companies
Technology and cloud providers
Telecoms businesses
Business and compliance consultancies
Professional service firms
Other organisations looking to add cyber security and compliance capability to their existing client offering
The important part is the fit.
We want to build long-term relationships with partners who care about giving their clients sound advice, clear communication and the right service for their requirements.
Services you can offer through The Rybec Group
Working with The Rybec Group can give your clients access to services across certification, compliance and security.
Certification
The Rybec Group is an IASME-licensed Certification Body and can assess organisations for:
Cyber Essentials
Cyber Essentials Plus
IASME Cyber Assurance
For ISO 27001, The Rybec Group provides consultancy and implementation support through to certification by an independent accredited certification body.
Compliance
Support can include:
ISO 27001 implementation
Ongoing ISMS management
Gap assessments
Risk and governance support
Business continuity and incident readiness
Where internal audit is required, independence is protected. The person auditing an area should not be the person who built, ran or implemented it.
Security
Depending on your client’s requirements, The Rybec Group can also provide access to:
Vulnerability assessments
Managed vulnerability services
Penetration testing
Advanced offensive testing
Managed detection and response
Incident response
Cloud and identity security
Backup and disaster recovery
Staff awareness and cyber education
Where specialist technical delivery is required, the service remains managed through The Rybec Group.
Your client relationship matters
You’ve spent time earning your clients’ trust. We understand you don’t want to put that relationship at risk every time you need to bring in specialist expertise.
Our approach is designed to make responsibilities clear from the outset.
For services delivered by The Rybec Group, we agree the requirement, scope and responsibilities before work begins and keep communication clear throughout.
Where specialist technical capability is required, services are delivered by The Rybec Group under our own name. Scoping, client relationship, reporting and accountability sit with Rybec throughout. Technical delivery is carried out by appropriately qualified specialist testers working to The Rybec Group’s scope and standards.
The result is a straightforward way to give your clients access to specialist capability without leaving them to find, assess and manage multiple suppliers themselves.
Why partner with The Rybec Group?
Add capability without building it yourself
Recruiting, training and retaining specialist cyber security staff is a significant commitment. A partner relationship gives you access to established capability when your clients need it.
Keep more client requirements within your network
When cyber security or compliance falls outside your existing services, you have somewhere trusted to take the requirement instead of simply turning the work away.
Give clients access to recognised certification
As an IASME-licensed Certification Body, The Rybec Group can directly assess Cyber Essentials, Cyber Essentials Plus and IASME Cyber Assurance.
Get practical support from people who understand the work
The Rybec Group brings together experience in law enforcement, cyber crime investigation, military service, certification assessment, ISO implementation and auditing.
How the partner relationship works
1. Tell us about your business
We’ll start with a conversation about your clients, the services you already provide and the type of cyber security or compliance requirements you’re seeing.
2. Agree how we’ll work together
We’ll establish the services, responsibilities and commercial arrangements relevant to the relationship before any client work begins.
3. Bring us the requirement
When a client needs support, tell us what they’ve asked for. We’ll help establish the appropriate scope rather than pushing them towards a service they don’t need.
4. The Rybec Group delivers the agreed service
We manage the work according to the agreed delivery model, keeping responsibilities and communication clear throughout.
5. Keep supporting your clients
As their certification, compliance and security requirements develop, you have access to The Rybec Group’s wider capability rather than having to source a new specialist each time.

We’re interested in building lasting relationships with businesses that see cyber security and compliance as an important part of the support their clients need.
