How it works

  1. Baseline review. We review accounts, devices, email, and backups to find the gaps attackers actually exploit.
  2. Core controls. We roll out MFA, endpoint protection, phishing safeguards, and update management in a sensible order.
  3. People and progress. We train staff, monitor, and keep improving — security is a habit, not a one-off project.

Frequently asked questions

Is a small business really a target?

Yes. Most attacks are automated and untargeted: criminals scan for weak passwords, missing updates, and unprotected email regardless of the size of the business behind them. Small businesses are often hit precisely because they assume they are too small to matter.

Where should we start with cyber security?

Multi-factor authentication, a password manager, automatic updates, and tested backups deliver the biggest risk reduction for the least money. We help you put those foundations in place before anything more advanced.

Do you provide staff security training?

Yes. We run practical phishing awareness and security training in plain English, because most incidents start with a person, not a firewall.

Can you help us get Cyber Essentials certified?

Yes. Our Cyber Essentials Plus readiness service takes you from a gap assessment through remediation to being ready for assessment.
