NETWORK SECURITY

Do you know who connects to your network? Do you allow VPN access? Do you let suppliers and third party guests connect to your network? Perhaps these are all necessary. With GDPR the price of unauthorised data access can be high. We can help to reduce this risk.

We manage your IT & Technical (inc. Production) Providers. You manage your business. This means you have only one person reporting to you. A human dashboard, if you like.

USER TRAINING

We train your users & staff in Cybersecurity awareness. Always mindful that the last line of defence is the user and with more and more successful attacks happening as a result of Social Engineering, user awareness is now the number 1 Cyber security concern.

DISASTER RECOVERY

Should your systems fail, you need to know we will have them up & running as a matter of urgency. While Continuity planning is imperative you need your core systems up & running without excessive delay.
