FCA Readiness

Structured readiness support — assess, implement, evidence and prepare.

What it is

The UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) sets operational resilience and security expectations for regulated firms.

Why it matters

Customers, auditors and regulators increasingly expect organisations to demonstrate structured controls and evidence — not just intent. Readiness work reduces surprises during audits and assessments.

What DS Security Services can help with

• Gap assessment and readiness assessment
• Control mapping and risk assessment
• Policy development and control implementation
• Evidence preparation and remediation
• Audit preparation and continuous advisory

Process

1. Assess — understand current state against the framework.
2. Plan — prioritise gaps by risk and effort.
3. Implement — build controls, policies and evidence.
4. Prepare — organise for audit or assessment and support remediation.
