About DigiRisq Consulting Inc.

DigiRisq Consulting Inc. is a consulting firm located on Talbot Street in the Downtown area of London, Ontario. The business serves growing B2B technology companies, specifically assisting IT leaders and founders who need to satisfy customer security requirements without overwhelming their internal teams or hindering business momentum. The company offers a systematic three-phase approach to cybersecurity. The first phase involves a strategic assessment, which includes a free strategy consultation, a security gap assessment using frameworks such as CIS, NIST CSF, and ISO 27001, and the creation of a realistic implementation roadmap. The second phase focuses on foundation building, where the firm creates essential policies and procedures for sales teams, prepares for specific certifications, and provides team training. The third phase is an ongoing partnership providing regular strategic reviews, continuous updates to stay ahead of requirements, and ongoing sales support. The business was founded by Nawab Kabir, who brings over 30 years of experience in IT and cybersecurity leadership. Before becoming a consultant, Kabir was an entrepreneur who founded Bangladesh's second Internet Service Provider and held leadership roles at organizations such as JPMorgan Chase and Afilias. He is also a cybersecurity professor at Fanshawe College, where he teaches courses on auditing, security controls, and evolving threats. Kabir describes his approach as education over dependency, aiming to provide clients with the knowledge and processes to manage their own security programs independently. He holds several certifications, including CISSP, CISM, and Certified ISO 27001 Lead Auditor. In addition to his consulting work, Kabir is involved in the local community as a Peer Mentor with a cybersecurity non-profit and as an Arrive Ambassador. He also organizes monthly meetups for Cyber Hive YXU, a community for information security professionals and students in the London area.
