Government-Grade Expertise, Built from the Ground Up
VALANDROS LTD was founded to deliver the specialist cybersecurity capabilities that UK government and critical national infrastructure organisations demand — without the overhead of large consultancies or the uncertainty of generalist firms.
Senior Practitioner. No Junior Handoffs.
Andre is a senior UK cybersecurity professional with deep, specialist expertise in CrowdStrike NG-SIEM — covering the full lifecycle from initial implementation and data source onboarding through to detection engineering, continuous tuning, and managed service delivery.
With a background spanning government and enterprise environments, Andre founded Valandros to provide the kind of specialist, high-accountability service that large organisations need but rarely find: a practitioner who understands both the technology and the regulatory demands of operating in the UK public sector.
When you engage Valandros, you work directly with Andre — no account managers, no junior analysts, no knowledge dilution.
Why We Exist
VALANDROS LTD was incorporated in Scotland to address a clear gap: UK government and critical national infrastructure organisations increasingly adopt CrowdStrike’s platform, but finding practitioners with the depth to implement and operate NG-SIEM at the level these environments demand is genuinely difficult.
Large consultancies deploy generalists and rotate staff. Smaller firms lack the security clearance pathways and regulatory awareness. Valandros was built specifically to fill that gap — combining deep technical expertise with the accreditation pathway required to operate in sensitive environments.
The NCSC ACSC accreditation pathway — Cyber Essentials Plus, UK Cyber Security Council Chartered Title, and NCSC Assured Cyber Security Consultancy — is not a marketing exercise. It is the minimum standard of assurance that government clients should expect from their cybersecurity partners.
