Alvearium Associates is a UK-based cyber, technology and AI consultancy providing fractional CISO services and strategic security leadership for organisations operating in complex regulatory environments.
We were founded on a simple principle: organisations deserve access to security leaders who have been in the chair. We are practitioners turned advisors, with 20+ years of hands-on cybersecurity experience across regulated enterprises, former Group CISO and senior leadership roles in complex, multi-jurisdictional organisations, and deep regulatory expertise spanning NIS2, DORA, UK GDPR, ISO 27001 and AI governance.
Our services include fractional CISO and security leadership, cyber regulatory and compliance advisory, security strategy and maturity assessment, AI security and governance, third-party and supply chain risk management, and incident response planning and crisis management. Through the Hive, our curated network of fractional security specialists, clients gain access to deep expertise across multiple security disciplines with consistent quality and peer review.
We specialise in legal and professional services, financial services and regulated mid-market organisations, with experience spanning the UK, EU, EMEA and APAC. Representative work includes fractional CISO services for FTSE 250 companies, security maturity assessments for international law firms, incident readiness for major media organisations, and DORA and NIS2 compliance support for mid-market firms.
Alvearium operates as a purpose-driven practice: 2% of all fees are donated to men's mental health initiatives and the Internet Watch Foundation. Honest, pragmatic, threat-aware advice. Protecting what matters most.
