Gap Analysis
URM’s experts can conduct a gap analysis to facilitate your compliance with the Defence Cyber Certification (DCC) scheme. Our approach involves a comprehensive evaluation of your current cyber security controls, policies, and processes to identify where you are already meeting DCC requirements and where improvements are needed. The output of the analysis is a detailed report, outlining your current compliance status and providing clear, prioritised recommendations to help you close gaps and achieve full readiness for your formal DCC assessment.

Why URM?
Track record
URM has a 20-year track record of providing high-quality training and consultancy services, assisting organisations to improve their information security, cyber security and risk management programmes. Whilst the DCC is a relatively new framework, URM’s can leverage its extensive experience supporting organisations’ implementation of other security frameworks that have considerable overlap with the scheme (such as the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), and ISO 27001) to support your DCC compliance.
Tailored solutions
We at URM appreciate that no two organisations are the same and, as such, neither will their cyber security and DCC compliance programmes. The unique requirements of your organisation, its industry, size and structure, risk appetite, products and services provided, legal and obligatory requirements, etc., will always guide our approach to supporting your compliance with the DCC. Meanwhile, we will ensure the advice we offer reflects your existing working practices, enabling you to integrate the required DCC controls into your organisation’s business-as-usual (BAU) operations as seamlessly as possible.
Knowledge transfer
With our ‘real world’ knowledge transfer philosophy, you will benefit from our large team of consultants’ extensive practical experience and knowledge of cyber security best practice, and be able to independently improve your security by virtue of what you have learned from them, without needing to rely on ongoing consultancy support.
