Advisory & Decision Support

What this is — and what it is not

Advisory work translates technical uncertainty into decisions you can stand behind. It does not outsource responsibility, and it does not sell tools.

These engagements are not standalone products. They are applied only where they support a defined decision scope — with delivery performed by trusted independent specialists under INGENS-defined scope, responsibility boundaries, and quality gates.

• Focus on clarity, scope, and ownership
• Practical next steps, not generic checklists
• Vendor-agnostic recommendations
• No lock-in contracts, no hidden agendas

Advisory starters (fixed-scope)

These starter engagements are designed to be small, bounded, and outcome-oriented. They are intended as clear starting points, not open-ended consulting.

Clarity Session (90 minutes)

€180 (fixed)

A structured conversation to clarify context, assets, responsibilities, and the most relevant risks — without assuming technical knowledge.

• Clear scope: what matters and what does not
• A practical next step recommendation
• No pressure to continue

Security Posture Snapshot

€650–€950 (typical)

A focused review of current security posture, with a short decision memo and prioritised recommendations.

• 1–2 page decision memo (plain language)
• Top risks and quick wins
• A practical 30–60 day improvement plan

Incident Readiness Review

€750–€1,250 (typical)

A bounded review of how the organisation would detect, respond, and recover from common incidents — with clear gaps and improvements.

• Roles and escalation clarity
• Backup and recovery readiness check (scope-defined)
• Action list to reduce response chaos

Governance & Responsibilities Workshop

€950–€1,500 (typical)

A facilitated session to define ownership, responsibilities, and practical rules that people will actually follow.

• Ownership map: who decides, who executes
• Lightweight policies: minimum necessary
• Next-step plan aligned with business reality

Compliance Readiness Briefing (GDPR / NIS2)

€650–€1,200 (typical)

A practical briefing of what compliance expectations mean for your organisation, with realistic priorities and boundaries.

• Gaps and priority actions (non-legal, advisory scope)
• Evidence and documentation approach
• Time/effort estimate for next steps

How we work

Advisory engagements are intentionally structured to stay useful, bounded, and decision-oriented.

• We clarify context, constraints, and what “good enough” means.
• We map responsibilities and realistic options.
• We produce a short decision output — not a long report.
• If needed, we support implementation through the operational packages.

Boundaries

We do not provide legal advice, and we do not promise “total security”. Advisory work reduces uncertainty and supports decisions.

We do not replace internal IT or security ownership — we support it within an agreed scope.

• Compliance briefings are advisory and non-legal in nature
• We do not sell security software
• Scope is defined upfront — changes only by agreement
