Samer Kilani Reviews 

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Samer at Social By Design CIC, and I can confidently recommend him for his technical expertise, commitment, and ability to make complex topics accessible to everyone.

Samer has been volunteering with us since day one, supporting several of our programmes, including digital literacy and digital security for women in peacebuilding. He has designed and delivered numerous training sessions, always adapting the content to suit the audience and making technical information clear, practical, and easy to understand, even for people with limited technical knowledge.

Beyond training, Samer has been instrumental in strengthening our organisation’s digital security. Whenever we have faced security concerns or technical challenges, he has helped us find solutions and improve our security measures to better protect our organisation and the communities we work with.

His ability to combine technical knowledge with a genuine understanding of people’s needs makes him a valuable asset to any team. I’m grateful for his contribution to Social By Design and would highly recommend him to any organisation looking for someone with his skills and dedication.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Samer on delivering a comprehensive cyber security strategy and an impactful security awareness program. Samer brings incredible technical clarity, strategic vision, and collaboration to the table. Together, we successfully aligned security frameworks with broader business goals and rolled out engaging awareness initiatives that genuinely elevated organizational security culture. Highly recommended for anyone looking to drive meaningful security improvements!

We engaged Samer to evaluate and elevate our security posture across our UK, Italian, and UAE entities. His risk assessment was forensic, identifying blind spots we had missed across our distributed environments. Crucially, Samer worked directly with us to remediate the vulnerabilities and navigate complex EU compliance requirements without disrupting our daily operations. Highly professional, responsive, and deeply knowledgeable in international compliance and cybersecurity

We brought in Samer to evaluate and fortify our e-commerce platform and client-facing web infrastructure. His audit was comprehensive, pinpointing risks across our integrations, server environments, and transaction pathways. He delivered practical, zero-downtime remediation that strengthened our defenses without slowing down customer experience or operational speed. Fast, pragmatic, and exceptionally knowledgeable in web application and retail security

Working with Samer had an immediate impact on both our resilience and operational efficiency. He secured our network architecture against modern threats and helped us integrate AI-driven automation into our everyday workflows safely. Just as importantly, his cybersecurity awareness sessions for our team demystified complex risks and built genuine security consciousness across the company. A pragmatic, business-focused security leader who protects both the systems and the people

I have had the opportunity to work with Samer on several client engagements where our areas of expertise intersected. As a forensic accountant and fraud examiner, I am often involved in projects related to governance, fraud risk management, internal controls, and organisational restructuring. In these assignments, Samer was responsible for the cybersecurity, information security, and technology aspects while I focused on the financial and forensic side.

What impressed me most is that Samer’s understanding goes well beyond traditional cybersecurity. He has a strong grasp of governance, risk management, fraud prevention, and how organisations can build practical control environments that work in the real world. He consistently brings well-thought-out ideas, a pragmatic approach, and the ability to look at challenges from different angles rather than relying on standard templates.

I was also particularly impressed by how effectively he is integrating AI into his work. In our most recent project, his ability to apply AI in a practical and secure way to support cybersecurity and governance objectives demonstrated how up to date he remains with emerging technologies.

Samer combines deep technical knowledge with professionalism, reliability, and a genuine commitment to helping clients achieve meaningful results. Based on my experience working alongside him, I would not hesitate to recommend his services.

The following day, he sent me a comprehensive proposal tailored to my work and requirements.
It was so clear and logically structured that I genuinely didn’t need to ask for clarification on anything.
Every detail had been considered, and there was a clear reason behind each recommendation.
