Security, AI & ISO

Security improvements you can actually finish.

You don’t need to begin with a certification project. Start with one focused problem, put the right control in place and leave with evidence you can use.

Practical assurance

Start with the control that matters most.

Some businesses need a complete ISO 27001 programme. Others need to prove their backups work, close an access problem or answer a client security questionnaire properly. Pixel & Wire meets you at the right starting point.

Available individually, following scope confirmation. Useful with or without ISO 27001 certification, with clear deliverables and evidence of the work completed.

When a device reaches the end of its working life, the data should reach the end of its life too.

  • Client-authorised collection
  • Chain of custody
  • Verified erasure where suitable

Creative by design

Built around creative work.

Creative businesses move quickly. Teams expand for projects, freelancers need access immediately, large files move between platforms and new tools appear halfway through a deadline. Security has to work with that reality.

For creative agencies, design studios, photographers, film and production companies, music businesses and other creative organisations.

Projects move quickly

Controls that support deadlines instead of blocking them.

Teams constantly change

Cleaner onboarding and offboarding for employees, freelancers and collaborators.

Client work is sensitive

Clear ownership, controlled sharing and evidence clients can trust.

Tools multiply

Visibility across SaaS, AI, storage, production and collaboration platforms.

Pitch-Ready Security Pack

Security that helps you win work.

When a client questionnaire lands during a pitch, you should not have to rebuild the company’s security story from scratch.

Build a reusable pack around your implemented controls. Every answer must accurately reflect what the business actually does; gaps remain visible rather than being presented as completed work.

  • Reusable company security overview
  • Standard questionnaire answers
  • Policy index
  • Supplier overview
  • Incident-response summary
  • Data-flow summary
  • Evidence library
  • Named assurance contact
Build your security story

A clear way forward.

  1. Choose the opportunity

    Tell us what would help your team create, deliver or win work with more confidence.

  2. Confirm the scope

    We agree the systems, people, evidence and outcome involved.

  3. Fix the control

    We assess, document, test or implement the defined improvement.

  4. Keep it useful

    Take the completed pack away or ask us to maintain it.

The wider picture

Security without the theatre.

Good security shouldn’t make it harder to do good work. We help creative organisations reduce real risk, adopt AI sensibly and make compliance useful.

Cyber security

Protect what matters.

Security controls based on actual risk — not how many products somebody can sell you.

  • Risk reviews
  • Cyber Essentials readiness
  • Endpoint security
  • Incident response
  • Supplier assurance
  • Awareness
AI governance

Your people are already experimenting.

The answer isn't banning AI. It's helping teams understand where it adds value, where the risks are, and what good use looks like.

  • AI policies
  • Tool assessments
  • Creative AI
  • Copilot
  • Data governance
  • Training
ISO 27001

Build an ISMS people understand.

From first risk register to surveillance audit, we help make ISO 27001 practical enough to live with.

  • ISMS implementation
  • Internal audits
  • Risk register
  • Statement of Applicability (SoA)
  • Policies
  • Audit prep
ISMS OS

We're building the tool we wanted.

A simpler way to run risks, controls, suppliers, incidents, policies and evidence in one place.

Need governance without killing creativity?

That's exactly the point.
