Opliciti was founded in 2018 by Spencer Summons, who after working as Head of Cyber Security for a large oil and gas company, wanted to help organisations become more adaptive in response to ever-changing security risks in the digital environment. He also wanted to focus on helping companies respond to the growing work-from-home movement.<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Initially providing cyber security management consulting, Summons discovered a trend amongst SME clients. Typically, many SMEs had already invested in security technology, but lacked the resources, skills and experience to fully realise the value of their investments. Furthermore, company boards were increasingly demanding their IT and security teams demonstrate cyber assurance, yet often without significant additional investment.<\/p>\n

This insight enabled Summons to identify and develop a more adaptable approach to supporting a client\u2019s security requirements; one that could leverage a client\u2019s existing technology, maximise or supplement their existing resources and align with their limited budget. To meet this requirement, Summons partnered with an old colleague, Gabriel Wilson \u2013 developing their first Security Operations Centre (SOC) in 2012 \u2013 after which Wilson continued architecting and building security operations services for one of the largest global security providers.<\/p>\n

Together, Summons and Wilson developed a differentiated security operations model that leveraged a client\u2019s existing IT and security technology with the advantage of developments in artificial intelligence, machine learning and end-to-end automation. Summons and Wilson also recruited SOC staff they had worked together with for five years previously. This level of SOC maturity now provides exceptional benefits to clients.<\/p>\n

Further differentiating the service, Summons and Wilson brought another old colleague, Ross Pollock, on board: an experienced capital programme manager and a native South African residing in Cape Town, South Africa. The aim was to establish a Cape Town managed service base to establish a more attractive cost model for European clients.<\/p>\n
