Acasta was established in 2008 in the wake of the UK Government Hannigan report.  In 2007, the public sector witnessed a number of high profile data loss incidents within a number of UK Government departments.  These incidents triggered a pan-governmental review into the effectiveness of existing HMG data handling procedures. 

A direct consequence of this review was the instigation of information security and data handling improvement programmes across central government departments.  These programmes generated high demand for HMG information security specialists – specifically CESG listed Advisors (CLAS Consultants).

Rob Mason founded Acasta – a cost-competitive, flexible and fully independent Information Security Consultancy – to feed this demand, and, to apply formal information assurance principles to all market sectors.  And this is the critical factor – taking a formal assurance approach within all Information Security engagements.  This is a fundamental requirement in establishing business confidence in contemporary information processing systems.

Acasta is pervasive – growing steadily and surely to confront emerging information threats to business.  It has an established and CESG-assured skill base to call upon to meet the needs of any technology led business transformation programme.  Acasta is constantly developing its service offerings to meet the needs of any organisation – public or private sector, small or large.  Acasta has the skill, experience, flexibilty and pricing to suit all needs.
