CoCo Express Review

Who needs the Code of Connection (CoCo) Express review?

An organisation which has not previously required a secure connection will need guiding through the processes needed to comply with the CoCo. The organisation may have multiple sites but may be hesitant to commit to the full service.

What does VEGA's CoCo Express review offer?

Based on a proven track record, VEGA provides specialist expert advice to any organisation, large or small, which needs to connect to one or more secure government networks. We can guide an organisation through the processes required to comply with the CoCo. The Express CoCo review is the first of these modules, and provides a baseline report to identify areas of improvement regarding a network.

CoCo Express review components

Through the Coco Express review, VEGA will provide the organisation with the following components:

  • Start up meeting covering scope, objectives, major risk areas, and the deliverables VEGA will provide
  • High level review of the organisation’s ICT infrastructure, providing the client with further guidance on how to approach the CoCo. The review may take a few days, depending on the organisation’s size and scale
  • High level gap analysis is produced following the review, identifying areas of major risk and issues
  • Baseline report containing the review’s findings and gap analysis, and identifying major areas of concern. It will also provide the organisation with a clear view of the scope of the work required to comply with the CoCo.

What will you get from VEGA?

Firstly, we will provide a friendly, professional service from our extensive knowledge in this field. VEGA will arrange a start-up meeting and provide both the agenda and the minutes, giving clients the confidence to move forward. We will also deliver a baseline report which will contain the current state of the network with observations, as well as a prioritised list of recommendations so that the client can further their compliance efforts in a structured manner.
