Cyber Managed Services

Strengthen defenses and upgrade operations with a human-led, AI-enabled approach that continuously learns, adapts, and protects.

Securing the enterprise in an age of intelligent threats

Cyber threats are evolving faster than ever. Attackers use AI to scale their tactics, but many organizations struggle to keep up—constrained by limited talent, siloed tools, and outdated cybersecurity services. Traditional outsourcing can’t keep pace with the rising level of risk and accelerating pace of AI-driven threats.

KPMG Cyber Managed Services meets that challenge with a human-led, AI-enabled service model that connects your core defenses. We combine deep cyber knowledge, industry-specific experience, and AI and automation to help clients modernize their defenses, close capability gaps, and sustain resilience in an unpredictable risk landscape. Our managed model transforms cyber operations from reactive maintenance into a continuously improving ecosystem.

In life sciences, a serious cyber incident can lead to threats to patient safety, clinical trial integrity, and regulatory compliance. Threat actors target high-value intellectual property (IP) long before commercialization, forcing you to protect data moving across a complex ecosystem of labs, partners, and cloud platforms. The core challenge isn’t a lack of tools, but governing identity, privileged access, and third-party risk across a federated, regulated ecosystem while enabling AI-driven research and digital innovation.

KPMG Cyber Managed Services for life sciences organizations deliver:

A managed service operating model that provides continuous, AI-enabled threat detection, response, and exposure management, helping ensure the due care and confidence to mitigate cyber risk
Cyber risk and governance management across your research, manufacturing, and partner ecosystems, providing auditable processes that support inspection readiness
Security testing aligned to "Good Practice" guidelines (GxP), Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medicines Agency (EMA) compliance expectations, including security testing your AI ecosystem
Secure data and access management to protect your research and development pipeline and IP.

We help you secure and maintain operational continuity—so your teams can focus on advancing science and patient outcomes.

From fraud loss to abandoned carts, cyberattacks in your sector can cause significant brand damage and extensive financial impact. Identity-driven attacks like account takeover and loyalty fraud force difficult decisions and trade-offs around security and customer experience. Your complex ecosystem of point-of-service systems, e-commerce platforms, mobile apps, and third parties presents a high-risk and attack profile with a priority around resiliency. And spiking attacks during peak shopping periods outpace your security team’s ability to scale.

KPMG Cyber Managed Services for the consumer, retail, and hospitality sector deliver:

Always-on, AI-enabled monitoring that scales with peak traffic and transaction volumes, with threat intelligence tuned to fraud and credential abuse patterns
Identity-centric protection for customers, employees, and partners
Continuous third-party risk management to secure Software-as-a-Service and marketplace ecosystems.

We help you reduce fraud exposure, protect customer trust, and maintain seamless digital experience—while improving cyber efficiency and predictability.

In manufacturing, cyber incidents are threats to production continuity, revenue, supply chain stability, and physical safety. The convergence of information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT) means breaches don’t just compromise data—they halt production lines, disrupt supply chains, and put your facility staff at risk. Managing cybersecurity across globally distributed plants, vendors, and integrators is a major challenge; and your valuable IP—from designs to formulas to processes—make you a target.

KPMG Cyber Managed Services for manufacturers deliver:

The unified visibility and control needed to protect your operations through continuous monitoring across heterogeneous OT and IT environments
Disciplined governance of identity and access for engineers, vendors, and automation systems
Proactive security testing to protect intellectual property and industrial systems.

We deliver unified visibility and standardize cyber operations—without disrupting plant-level productivity—so you can reduce operational risk and strengthen production resilience.

As operators of critical infrastructure, energy companies face intense scrutiny from regulators and the public to demonstrate ongoing cyber resilience. Yet, geopolitical threat actors view your systems as strategic targets. Digital capabilities—from smart grids to control-room sensors—expand your attack surface, and your complex, embedded systems cannot easily be patched or replaced.

KPMG Cyber Managed Services for energy companies deliver:

A cyber operating model with 24/7 threat management aligned to critical infrastructure risk, featuring audit-ready, standardized processes that stand up to regulatory scrutiny
AI-enabled detection to improve response speed and robust identity governance across operators and vendors.

We help energy organizations strengthen operational resilience, reduce regulatory exposure, and build a defensible narrative of cyber readiness for boards and regulators.
