AI Automation

CyPro

Transforming cybersecurity operations with automation & AI. Reduced due diligence response time from 4 days to 3 minutes.

The Client

About this project

CyPro is a fast-growing cybersecurity company based in London. In just two years, the business scaled from a three-person team to over 20 employees. As their client base grew, so did the operational and technical demands on their internal systems. CyPro engaged us to modernise their digital presence and dramatically reduce time spent on manual, repetitive security and content workflows.

The Challenge

What we were up against

01

A dated, non-mobile responsive website with no meaningful SEO presence

02

Limited and manual marketing outreach, restricting lead generation

03

Third-party due diligence questionnaires taking up to four days per client

04

Blog content creation taking 6+ hours per post, every two weeks, per team member

05

A fragmented and manual attack surface analysis process using many disconnected tools

06

Strict requirements around data security and on-premises processing

The Solution

What we built to solve it

AI-Powered Due Diligence System

Process reduced from 4 days to ~3 minutes

CyPro regularly receives third-party due diligence questionnaires containing hundreds of questions. Previously, these required heavy manual redaction and inconsistent AI processing. We built a fully on-prem, RAG-based knowledge system.

Key Features

  • Stores secure, client-specific knowledge bases
  • Ingests questionnaires directly
  • Outputs accurate, non-hallucinated answers
  • Includes a chat interface for staff to query documentation

Key Features

  • Learns CyPro's writing style from historical posts
  • Generates structured blog drafts
  • Produces section-level content with full context
  • Auto-generates image & infographic prompts
  • Pushes directly to WordPress
  • Keeps a human-in-the-loop for final review
