Daintta: Strengthening Cyber, AI and Data Resilience Across Government

Daintta is one of the UK’s fastest-growing consultancies in the fields of cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, and data innovation. Established in 2019, the company has grown rapidly to become a trusted partner across central government departments, local authorities, law enforcement agencies, health and care and the wider public sector.

Recognised by the Financial Times FT1000 as one of the fastest-growing companies in Europe (#45 overall, #16 in the UK, #2 in cybersecurity), Daintta is committed to supporting the UK’s mission to remain secure, resilient, and innovative in the face of growing cyber and data-driven challenges.

Supporting Government’s Mission

Public-sector organisations today operate in highly complex environments. They must deliver critical services, often under financial pressure, while facing rising expectations from citizens and increased threats to their systems and data.

Daintta works alongside government organisations to address these challenges. Its teams combine technical specialists, data experts, and security practitioners with deep understanding of public service delivery. This blend ensures that solutions are not only technically robust but also practical, proportionate, and aligned with public-sector priorities.

Clients benefit from expertise spanning:

  • National Security and Law Enforcement – safeguarding critical systems and supporting secure operations.
  • Central Government Departments – delivering programmes aligned with policy, digital transformation, and resilience objectives.
  • Healthcare and Local Authorities – enabling safe and effective services where sensitive data and public trust are paramount.
  • Telecommunications and Critical Infrastructure – ensuring resilient, compliant, and future-proof systems.
     

Expertise in Cyber Resilience

A core strand of Daintta’s work is supporting organisations to assess and improve their cyber resilience in line with frameworks such as the National Cyber Security Centre’s Cyber Assessment Framework (CAF).

To assist public bodies in this space, Daintta has developed CyINTer, an AI-enabled platform that provides organisations with holistic cyber risk and resilience insights. CyINTer allows government leaders and managers to:

  • Benchmark resilience against CAF objectives.
  • Understand risks across a single organisation or across multiple entities.
  • Break down silos to enable collaboration and accountability.
  • Strengthen resilience at both organisational and system level.
     

For smaller public bodies, such as local authorities, CyINTer helps democratise access to cyber resilience tools, providing actionable insights that may otherwise have required significant external consultancy resources.

Data and AI for Better Decisions

Beyond cyber, Daintta is heavily engaged in helping government unlock the value of data and artificial intelligence. By combining technical expertise with strong governance approaches, Daintta ensures that data-driven solutions are delivered responsibly, transparently, and in ways that improve decision-making.

This includes:

  • Designing data strategies aligned with public-sector goals.
  • Supporting data governance frameworks that meet legal and ethical standards.
  • Applying AI and advanced analytics to enable faster, more accurate decisions at scale.
     

These services are tailored to the realities of public bodies: multiple stakeholders, sensitive data, complex procurement requirements, and the need for accountability to citizens.

People, Values, and Social Impact

Daintta’s growth has been driven by a strong focus on people and values. The consultancy is built on three principles: Transparency, Fairness, and Daring. These shape its approach to delivery, governance, and culture.

The company recruits both seasoned experts and high-potential individuals, creating diverse teams capable of addressing the toughest public-sector challenges. This model supports social mobility by hiring for potential as well as experience, ensuring government clients benefit from fresh perspectives alongside proven expertise.

Daintta also contributes to wider social impact through its charitable initiatives, including a commitment to donate 3% of annual profits to causes such as poverty alleviation, youth employment, and education.

Governance and Leadership

Daintta’s leadership team brings together decades of experience in government, technology, and consultancy. Members hold fellowships and chartered titles with the Institute of Engineering & Technology (IET) and the Chartered Management Institute (CMI), and the company has been recognised in forums such as the Institute of Directors Director of the Year awards.

This emphasis on professional standards and governance ensures that public-sector clients can engage Daintta with confidence, knowing that delivery is underpinned by rigour, accountability, and ethical practice.

Looking Ahead

As government continues to respond to new challenges ranging from cyber threats to the responsible adoption of AI there is a clear need for trusted partners who combine technical expertise, mission understanding, and an appreciation of public-service values.

Daintta is committed to being such a partner. Its focus on cyber resilience, data innovation, and responsible AI provides government organisations with the support they need to deliver secure, effective, and future-ready services for citizens.

More than a consultancy, Daintta represents a movement of people and ideas dedicated to strengthening the UK’s resilience. By working hand-in-hand with government bodies, Daintta continues to play a role in shaping a safer, fairer, and more innovative future for all.
