Rebuilding Tavistrand Media Group's security budget: three documents that landed together — the CFO's request to cut 15% from a £24.0M budget, a Board minute asking for faster ransomware recovery, and an audit finding nine overlapping tools; the portfolio of eight programmes cut from £24.0M to £20.4M while resilience grows from £2.2M to £3.6M; and the risk-bought-per-pound thermometer rising from 1.91 times to 2.40 times, above the CFO's 2.0 hurdle, for the Board's decision on 30 March 2027.

What you'll learn

  • Build an honest baseline — reconciled, classified, measured for utilisation, overlap, contracts, projects and people — and refuse an even cut with evidence rather than assertion.
  • Quantify risk in pounds with calibrated ranges and simulation, and compute risk bought per pound by programme, on average and at the margin.
  • Reshape the portfolio — rationalise tools, rebalance sourcing and run versus change, rank change on marginal value and sequence it on its critical path.
  • Put real options to a CFO, set appetite in pounds, track value after funding, name residual risks and win a Board resolution that everyone can be held to.
