What We Do
At Performance+Cyber, we provide cybersecurity strategies designed specifically for the high-pressure, high-value environments of sports, media, and entertainment. Our services go beyond generic solutions to deliver practical, industry-focused recommendations that strengthens operations, secures digital assets, and safeguards reputations.
Cybersecurity Program Development
Building a strong cybersecurity program begins with a clear, strategic vision. We partner directly with client leadership to assess their current cybersecurity maturity and develop a customized roadmap aligned with business goals.
Our work includes designing robust governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) frameworks, along with creating practical policies and standards that drive accountability. This foundational layer ensures your organization is built on a resilient, well-governed structure that can proactively address the unique threats these industries face.
Risk Management &
Cybersecurity Architecture
Building a strong cybersecurity program begins with a clear, strategic vision. We partner directly with client leadership to assess their current cybersecurity maturity and develop a customized roadmap aligned with business goals.
We help clients proactively identify and mitigate threats before they impact operations. Starting with a comprehensive risk assessment of products, content, and digital infrastructure, our experts specialize in third-party risk management to secure extended ecosystems of partners and vendors.
From there, we translate these insights into tailored cybersecurity architecture and design. Whether protecting cloud environments, safeguarding fan data, or securing intellectual property, our approach ensures your most critical assets are defended without compromising the seamless experience your audience expects.
Incident Preparedness & Resilience
In the fast-paced worlds of sports, media, and entertainment, a cybersecurity incident can’t bring operations to a halt. We focus on building incident response and crisis management capabilities that allow organizations to act decisively and recover quickly.
Our programs ensure business continuity, backed by specialized support for critical events like live broadcasts, major product launches, and high-profile performances. This preparation minimizes disruption, protects your reputation, and keeps the spotlight where it belongs, on the performance itself.
Program Optimization
& Digital Threat Protection
Cybersecurity is not static, it must evolve as fast as the threats it faces. We help clients build metrics and reporting frameworks that demonstrate the value of cybersecurity investments to executive teams and boards.
Beyond internal systems, we focus on protecting what’s most visible: your brand and digital presence. From securing talent’s online identity and protecting digital assets from piracy to defending against unauthorized use, we ensure your reputation remains intact. Our cybersecurity awareness training programs also empower employees to be the first line of defense, building a culture of vigilance and resilience across your organization.
