Industries

Different rules, familiar questions.

Every sector has particular obligations and pressures. These are the kinds of problems we think about in each one. They are typical scenarios, not client case studies.

01

Financial services and fintech

Trust and traceability come first. Customers and regulators expect clear evidence of who did what, and systems that are dependable during the moments that matter.

  • Secure customer platforms

    Portals and APIs with strong authentication, careful session design and detailed audit trails.

  • Partner and core integration

    Reliable connections to banks, payment providers and core systems, with reconciliation and idempotent processing.

  • Operational resilience

    Tested recovery plans, third-party risk reviews and readiness for security incidents.

02

Healthcare and wellbeing

Health information is among the most sensitive data there is, and the people using these systems are often busy and under pressure. Good design has to respect both.

  • Privacy by design

    Data minimisation, role-based access and audit logging, considered with the Health Information Privacy Code in mind.

  • Connecting clinical and administrative systems

    Careful integration between practice, booking and reporting systems, using standards such as HL7 FHIR where suited.

  • Availability that matches the setting

    Downtime procedures, recovery targets and backups appropriate to how care is actually delivered.

03

Retail and ecommerce

Peaks are predictable, but stock, price and customer data have to stay consistent across channels. Small delays and integration errors can quickly become lost sales.

  • Commerce platforms that scale

    Fast storefronts and checkout flows, with load testing against realistic peak traffic.

  • Stock and order integration

    Connecting point of sale, ERP, warehousing and marketplaces around one clear source of truth.

  • Payment and fraud considerations

    Reducing PCI DSS scope, protecting accounts and handling customer data responsibly.

04

Manufacturing and logistics

Physical operations depend on systems that were never designed to be connected. Downtime has a direct cost, and maintenance windows can be short.

  • Operational and IT convergence

    Careful segmentation between office networks and operational technology.

  • Tracking and planning data

    Integrating warehouse, fleet, and planning systems, with clean data for decisions.

  • Legacy equipment and software

    Pragmatic wrappers and staged replacement for systems that cannot simply be switched off.

05

Education and research

Open by nature and often limited in resources, these organisations serve many people with changing access needs and handle information about young people.

  • Identity across changing populations

    Automated access for students and staff, with single sign-on and clean account removal.

  • Protecting open networks

    Segmentation and practical monitoring that do not get in the way of teaching and research.

  • Learning and administration integration

    Connecting student management, learning platforms and reporting.

06

Public sector and not-for-profit

Public accountability, accessibility and careful stewardship of funding shape every decision, and procurement and security expectations are often explicit.

  • Accessible public services

    Digital services designed with accessibility and plain language at their core, considering the NZ Government Web Standards.

  • Security aligned to guidance

    Readiness work aligned with the NZISM and the Protective Security Requirements, where these apply.

  • Doing more with less

    Simple, low-maintenance platforms and honest advice on where to spend limited budgets.

07

Technology companies and start-ups

Speed matters, but so do the first enterprise security questionnaire and the architecture that will still be in place after the next funding round.

  • First versions that can grow

    A focused product build that avoids both over-engineering and dead ends.

  • Security for selling to larger customers

    Tenant isolation, penetration testing and evidence that stands up in due diligence.

  • Efficient cloud foundations

    Infrastructure as code, sensible environments and a cloud bill that grows slower than revenue.
