GOIA Technologies provides independent cyber governance advisory for FCA-regulated IFA firms.

Most IFA firms rely on their IT provider to handle cybersecurity. That covers systems management. It does not cover governance oversight, board-level risk visibility, or director accountability under FCA operational resilience rules and Consumer Duty. That is the gap we close.

Our five-stage service model:
- Free IFA Cyber Governance Checklist
- £495+VAT Cyber Risk Exposure Snapshot
- £1,750+VAT Executive Cyber Risk and Resilience Review
- Cyber Risk Stabilisation Projects (scoped per firm)
- Ongoing Cyber Governance and Assurance Retainer (£750-£2,750/month, includes continuous monitoring capability - commercial arrangement disclosed at engagement)

GOIA is co-founded by Gerard Ouattara (20+ years cybersecurity, digital forensics, and GRC) and Patrick Murphy (50+ years IFA, Chartered Financial Planner, overall winner Money Management FP of the Year and Wrap Planner of the Year, founder and exitor of Zen Wealth LLP). This combination gives GOIA an entry point and a level of trust in the IFA sector that competitors can't match.

Aligned to NCSC CAF, FCA PS21/3, NIST CSF v2.0, and CIS Controls v8. Cyber Essentials Certified. ICO registered. Company No. 16228859.

GOIA Technologies is not FCA-authorised. Services are governance advisory, not regulated financial advice.
