A cyber security company in London for growing firms

Any business that holds client data or relies on email and cloud systems needs it. It matters most when your own clients, insurers, investors or regulators expect you to show how you protect data. That's common in finance and investment, and in legal and professional services.

Managed cyber security means an outside team looks after your security on an ongoing basis. With us, that covers the protections on your systems and devices, monitoring, staff training, and the policies and evidence you need when someone asks how you keep data safe. You get specialist help without building an in-house security team.

The reasons clients usually give us:

• Specialist knowledge: security covers a lot of ground, and one in-house person rarely covers all of it.
• Answers you can back up: when a questionnaire arrives, the policies and evidence are already in place.
• Kept up to date: your systems, people and suppliers change, and the protections change with them.
• Time back: your operations lead stops carrying security worries alongside everything else.

If we also look after your IT support, the same people who know your setup look after its security.

Cyber security is the set of protections and habits that keep your data and systems safe. For a business, it usually covers:

• Protecting data: making sure only the right people can see client and company information.
• Stopping common attacks: filtering phishing emails, blocking malware and keeping software up to date.
• Controlling access: strong sign-in, multi-factor authentication and regular reviews of who can reach what.
• Recovering well: tested backups and a plan for what to do if something goes wrong.
• Showing your work: the policies and evidence that clients, insurers and regulators ask to see.

No business can be made completely safe, and we won't claim otherwise. Good security makes problems less likely and easier to recover from.

Usually people, and that says more about busy working days than about the people. Common gaps include:

• Weak or reused passwords: one leaked password can open several accounts.
• Phishing emails: messages that look like they come from a colleague or supplier and ask for a password or a payment.
• Out-of-date software: updates close known security holes, so skipped updates leave them open.
• Old access: accounts left open after someone leaves, or people with access they no longer need.
• Unmanaged devices: phones and laptops that reach company data without being protected.

Most of these are fixed with sensible settings, regular access reviews and short, practical training. That is usually where we start.

Yes. It's one of the most common reasons businesses get in touch. We usually:

• Go through it with you: we explain what each section is asking in plain English.
• Check what's in place: we compare your systems and policies with each question.
• Close the gaps: where the honest answer is ‘not yet’, we put the right controls or policies in place.
• Keep the evidence: so the next questionnaire takes less time.

You answer with confidence, and every answer is one you can back up. For contract requirements such as Cyber Essentials, see our IT compliance service.
