Secure-by-Design Technology for an Organisation in the Spotlight
The Client
IT Lab has been supporting the British Paralympic Association (BPA’s) IT needs since 2010. In 2018 we were proud to become their Authorised Technology Consultancy Provider. The deeper relationship created an opportunity to review the charity’s technologies and security posture.
It was a crucial time; the BPA was due to travel to Korea for the PyeongChang Paralympic Winter Games. Fancy Bears, a sophisticated cyber espionage group, was believed to pose a threat to the event.
On a global platform under the media glare, it was essential the BPA operated securely and efficiently at the Games.
