What our clients have said
We work with many organisations, businesses and brands, both locally and globally, providing cybersecurity services. We strive to deliver a first-class service to all our clients and seek to continuously improve what we do.
This is what some of our clients have said about why they enjoyed working with us.
Mr Bassill, an individual with whom I’ve been proud to have been in contact for approx. fourteen years. As a highly accomplished, industry-recognised CISO, I am reliably informed, by numerous others who operate at his level, that his provision of high calibre advisory services is based upon his depth and breadth of technical skill-set combined with significant management and leadership capabilities. He has also, for many years, struck me, for what it’s worth as both a caring individual and a very decent chap.
In my work with Peter, he has shown himself to be an excellent technician and troubleshooter. His wealth of knowledge of low-level network protocols combined with his in-depth architectural knowledge makes for a very effective troubleshooter. As a team leader Peter is happy to stand shoulder to shoulder with his team on the front line, gaining both the respect of his team and insight into day-to-day operations.
I had the pleasure of working with Peter Bassill at Gala Coral Group in his role as CISO. He is an exceptionally knowledgeable person (from both technical and business perspectives) with excellent communication skills which makes him one of the best Information Security Officers around. I would welcome the opportunity to work with and for him again if the opportunity arose and would not hesitate to recommend him for any IT security-related work.
We have used Hedgehogs services for 7 years now. Always professional and leading in the field of Cyber Security, I have never looked back. Over the years they have regularly provided top-tier penetration testing and cyber security consulting. I look forward to the next 7 years with them.
Peter was a pleasure to work with during his time with me. A highly talented operative with more passion and drive within him than you would see in a group of senior executives. His no holds barred approach got the right results every time and helped produce one of the most secure perimeters we ever had. To this day, his work remains the foundation of our border protection. He was always courteous and kind and showed the potential to be an excellent manager and CISO of any organisation.
Peter is a rare breed of individual who (like me) have a unique combination of heavy technical skills coupled with excellent managerial and other soft skills that make him a prize for any company. The brief time I worked with Peter was great fun. He is very practical but does not give in to any argument if he knows he is in the right. Brilliant person. Highly Recommended.
I worked with Peter on a very challenging project and was extremely impressed by his dedication to getting the issues resolved. His ability to come up with a solution while under extreme pressure is something I realized quickly and I will definitely appreciate his technical input when I am in a bind in the future.
Peter is a total Internet Security guru! He can detect a threat to a website a mile off and I have never known him not to get right to the bottom of a security risk. Despite being one of the busiest people in Gala Coral, Peter was always happy to help out with any concerns, queries or requests I had concerning Casino or Games security issues. He always resolved whatever had gone wrong within hours and would always report back to let me know what had been done and what action I needed to take. He is incredibly committed to his work and would be an asset to any company.
Peter and his exceptional team of ethical hackers transformed our business from just another network waiting to get hacked into a secure operation that gained us the Cyber Essentials Plus accreditation. We were the first in Gibraltar to hold the certification outside of the Cyber Security sector and have maintained our compliance year on year. I can not recommend Hedgehog enough.
I so enjoyed Peter as a member of my Chief Information Security Officer Council at Microsoft Ltd UK. He always provided a unique insight into IT security issues of import to many global companies who were also members. A respected and senior member of the IT community, Peter stands out as honourable and the person you would want on your side.
An excellent experience for the penetration test we had on some of our legacy web applications. The team quickly identified issues that had been previously missed and were able to give us some excellent proactive measures to fix these. I would highly recommend their penetration testing services.
Peter has been a fantastic partner/customer/advisor/anything else someone could be for me and Rapid7 since I met him a few years ago. His depth of knowledge and understanding of what’s actually important in the security space & how to relate it to the business would make him a fantastic addition to any organisations IT/Executive group.
