HPP and the information security company Silverskin have developed a novel cyber risk management service that combines legal expertise with advanced technical capabilities.
The service brings together deep technical insight and clear legal guidance in a tailored offering designed to give clients enhanced oversight and practical control over cyber risk. Through a coordinated approach, it addresses both technical vulnerabilities and related legal and regulatory obligations. It enables organisations to manage cyber risks more holistically, aligning remediation with compliance requirements.
The comprehensive service covers everything from identifying and resolving technical risks to meeting applicable legal and regulatory standards. Vulnerabilities are identified through offensive security testing, while legal expertise is applied to address any regulatory implications efficiently and effectively.
Cyber risk is both a technical and a legal challenge, and organisations need to be prepared on both fronts. HPP supports clients by assessing regulatory exposure, advising on incident response and notification obligations, and preparing governance and contractual risk management measures. Silverskin provides the technical capability to match: identifying vulnerabilities before they can be exploited, testing defences under real-world conditions, and giving clients a clear view of their actual exposure.
“Cybersecurity is no longer just an IT matter. It carries significant legal and business implications at board level. Companies that face a security incident do not only contend with operational disruption; they also face regulatory scrutiny, potential liability and reputational damage. By bringing our legal expertise to bear alongside Silverskin’s capabilities, we ensure clients have the guidance they need to prepare in advance, respond appropriately when an incident occurs, and recover on solid legal ground,” says Lasse Riski, Partner at HPP.
“Organisations need both a clear view of their technical exposure and a practical way to act on it. By combining Silverskin’s offensive security testing capabilities and other services with the required legal expertise, we help clients not only identify vulnerabilities but also prioritise and remediate them in line with regulatory requirements,” says Mikko Leino, Senior Sales Manager at Silverskin.
