Briefing work

Board pack charting

A short set of figures for a board or risk committee: incident load, material events, and residual questions, written so non-specialists can read them once.

From £1,800 per committee cycle

Board pack charting is narrower than a quarterly briefing. The reader has minutes, not an afternoon. We choose a handful of figures that match the agenda: how many incidents sat in each severity band, which ones were still open at period end, and whether a material event belongs in the narrative. Captions are written for directors who do not run detections for a living.

If your last pack used a house style, send it. We match weights and margins so the security pages do not look like a different document. What we will not do is compress a messy quarter into a single traffic-light that implies the logging was complete when it was not.

Who it is for

CISOs and risk owners who must put security events in front of a board that will not read a SIEM screenshot.

What you receive

Three to six figures with captions, plus a half-page note of caveats, sized for a committee pack.

Scope

One committee date and the figures agreed at briefing. We follow your existing paper template if you send it.

Included

Not included

Who prepares it

Contenttrailcore. Figures are issued as PDF and editable vector files.

Sequence

  1. Agenda and last pack received
  2. Figure list locked
  3. Draft figures
  4. Final files before your internal deadline

Time

Ten working days is the usual lead time. Shorter cycles are possible if the chart list is already known.

Where the work happens

Files only, unless you book a rehearsal with the presenting director.

What to prepare

Send the previous pack, the agenda, and the event extracts for the period the paper covers.

Limits we will not blur

We will not produce a green-amber-red dashboard that hides a logging outage. If the quarter is incomplete, the figure says incomplete.

Fees

From £1,800 excluding VAT per cycle. A standing arrangement for four cycles in a year is quoted as a single letter of engagement.

Next step

Tell us the committee date and when the paper must be with your company secretary.
