Vendor Assurance
Third Party Assurance
Assessment of the security controls your vendors and service providers have in place, so you know where third-party exposure sits. Available as a one-time assessment or as an ongoing managed retainer.


Trust Readiness Intelligence
Security and privacy are now examined far more routinely than they once were. Most organizations and families have sound practices in place, but few have them recorded in a way that can be shown at short notice. Trust Readiness Intelligence identifies which requirements apply to you, reviews the controls and evidence you already have, and sets out the gaps that need attention.
Requirements rarely arrive together. A questionnaire, a new privacy rule or an adopted standard is handled separately, often by different people, leaving documents across multiple locations. Over time, evidence becomes fragmented, control ownership shifts, and systems, vendors and teams change. Without regular checks, it becomes difficult to know whether controls remain effective or are still in place.
Where the gaps tend to appear:
Customer assurance: A security questionnaire arrives and the renewal waits on your answer.
Multiple frameworks: ISO 27001, SOC 2 and privacy obligations run as separate projects, duplicating effort and evidence.
External scrutiny: A bank, insurer or investor asks for assurance during onboarding, renewal or a raise, and the timeline follows your answer.
Complex structures: Entities and jurisdictions each answer differently, so no one can speak for the whole.
AI and third parties: AI adoption and connected platforms add obligations that no framework project has yet mapped.

TRI identifies the requirements that apply to you and maps them to one set of controls. We review the evidence behind each, document the gaps and keep the position current through scheduled reviews.
Trust Readiness Intelligence is built on discretion, a clearly defined scope and evidence-led assessment. Every engagement follows agreed boundaries, and each recommendation is documented, so you know what was reviewed, what was found, and what was left out.
Discretion
Findings are confidential
Evidence
Every conclusion traces back to a record you can inspect.
Defined scope
The work stays within boundaries agreed in writing at the outset.
Every client has a different mix of entities, systems, data, people and obligations. We begin by understanding yours, work from one set of controls and evidence, and report your position against a scope agreed with you.
Structured intelligence.
Considered judgement.
Readiness in view.
Tailored to your ecosystem
We begin with how things are structured: your entities, jurisdictions, systems, data, vendors and technologies. Together we agree what the engagement covers, and where it stops.
We establish which requirements apply to you, whether legal, contractual, security, privacy or AI-related, and bring them into a single set of controls. What overlaps is addressed once.
Every control is examined three ways: how it is designed, how it is applied and what evidence supports it. Access, data handling, AI use and connected systems all come into view.
Each gap is recorded with a recommended action. Reassess agreed corrective actions and provide a management-facing summary of readiness against the agreed scope.
The engagement closes with a clear account of your position against the agreed scope. Scheduled reviews then keep the evidence current as your systems, vendors and requirements change.

Each engagement sets out which requirements apply, which controls and evidence are in place, where gaps remain and what should be addressed next.
Where every engagement begins
Baseline Engagement
The engagement takes you from discovery to gap analysis within one control environment, built around the requirements that apply to an organisation, or the circumstances of an individual or family. Each finding sets out what is expected, what exists and what to do about it.
If You Continue With Us
Vendor Assurance
Assessment of the security controls your vendors and service providers have in place, so you know where third-party exposure sits. Available as a one-time assessment or as an ongoing managed retainer.
Technical Assessment
Vulnerability assessment and penetration testing of your infrastructure, identifying technical weaknesses and setting out the actions needed to address them.
Awareness & Training
Awareness sessions and training that help your people and principals stay safe in the digital world, covering everyday practices, common threats and responsible digital behaviour.
Ongoing Readiness
Scheduled control reassessments and evidence reviews to help maintain readiness as requirements and circumstances change.
Readiness matters most where requirements, exposure and gaps in control meet. Dot& works with organizations, family offices and private clients to understand what applies to them, where they stand today and where attention is most needed.
Request a confidential briefing to understand where your controls and evidence stand today, which requirements apply to you and what to address first.
Within the agreed scope, readiness means it is clear which requirements apply, which controls address them, what evidence supports those controls and which gaps remain, with a record of how each is being addressed. TRI provides an advisory view of that position. It does not guarantee certification, approval or the outcome of any external assessment.
