Peak helped international bank and finance concern thoroughly test and plan the implementation of a security concept against cyber risks across the IT-infrastructure. The approach was a hybrid in the sense that it consisted of both agile and traditional development principles.

We respect that not all customers wish to appear under their own name. For this reason, this case is described using general terms.  

Problem

Due to acquisitions, mergers and a generally large, global presence, the bank’s infrastructure was especially complex. This not only increased the number of internal and external threats – it also made it more difficult to standardize IT-security across departments and systems. As the bank’s cyber security department was far removed from the executive board in the organization, it was also harder to obtain the management’s mandate to implement cross-organizational projects and thereby ensure progress.  

 In order to implement a new security concept, they needed to develop both a scope, an as-is picture and especially a plan for implantation. A similarly pressing issue was the need to develop PoC (Proof of Concept) for the desired concept. These were meant to document, that it was possible to technically implement the concept before a cross-organizational roll-out. 

Solution

Peak’s consultant acted as Lead Project Manager on the project, being responsible for 13 internal and external resources as well as coordination of external suppliers’ deliverables. The project approach was hybrid, which involved agile principles in the form of SCRUM and SAFe for developing the IT-infrastructure, as well as traditional project management ( PRINCE2) for, for instance, governance, reporting, business case and milestone planning. 

 

The result was two PoC, that each confirmed, that it was possible to implement parts of the concept. Moreover, a strategic plan and objective was delivered. These outlined which IT-technical and organizational capabilities were necessary for an international implementation of the concept coming into 2024.
