About us

We provide the knowledge and expertise to our clients so they can make informed decisions to manage their critical risks.

Who We Are

Our firm is named Triplex Acies in recognition of the Roman military tactic ‘triple battle order’. The strategy utilised the various strengths of the army’s troops in three lines of defence, with the lines of each rank overlapping to allow for counterattack or orderly withdrawal. This typifies our approach to enterprise risk, security and resilience, and forms the foundation of our service to our clients.

We provide practical and value-add strategic, tactical and operational solutions for your organisation. We understand that your operating environment is changing and that your organisation is facing evolving threats; as a result, you require measures that adapt and evolve to effectively manage your critical risks.

We act in partnership with you to help safeguard your organisation, and look forward to understanding how we can help.
