IT Security & Cyber Defence Programme
A practical security programme for real businesses: lock down accounts, protect every device, back up what matters, and know within minutes when something is wrong.
Built to B2B standard — nothing extra
Every solution here is design craftsmanship built strictly around business-to-business needs: only the modules your operation actually uses, no bloat, no features you pay for and never touch. We start by consulting with you to define the best-fit solution, then build it to that scope.
Live demo & session notes
Lead with the two questions no client can answer comfortably: when did you last test a restore, and would you know today if an account was compromised. Then walk the assessment deliverable.
The problem
A mid-size finance company was running on shared passwords, no multi-factor authentication, an unmanaged antivirus, and backups that had never once been restore-tested. A phishing email reached a finance mailbox and nearly triggered a fraudulent transfer. Their insurer and their largest client both began asking for a security posture statement they could not produce.
What we built
We ran a two-week assessment against a practical control checklist, then delivered in priority order: multi-factor authentication and conditional access on every account, managed endpoint protection with 24/7 alerting, a next-generation firewall with web and content filtering, an immutable off-site backup with quarterly restore drills, an email security gateway with phishing simulation and staff training, patch management, and a written incident response plan with named owners. We now review the posture with them each quarter.
The result
Account takeover risk dropped to near zero after MFA rollout. Simulated phishing click rate fell from 31 percent to 4 percent in six months. The first real restore drill recovered a full file server in 40 minutes, and the company passed its client security review on first submission.
What it does, in plain English
Security assessment
A plain-language report of what is exposed, ranked by real risk, not a 200-page scanner dump.
Identity & MFA
Multi-factor authentication, single sign-on and clean joiner-leaver process so ex-staff lose access the same day.
Endpoint protection
Managed detection on every laptop, desktop and server, with alerts that reach a human.
Backup & recovery
Immutable off-site backups that we actually restore-test, with an agreed recovery time you can quote to clients.
Email & phishing defence
Filtering at the gateway plus staff simulation training, because most incidents still start in an inbox.
Incident response plan
A written playbook with named owners and escalation contacts, so nobody improvises during a bad morning.
Good for your business if…
- • Clients, insurers or auditors are asking about your security posture
- • You hold customer, payment or health data and cannot afford a breach
- • You want a prioritised roadmap and a fixed monthly cost, not fear-driven spending
Consider carefully if…
- • You are looking for a one-off penetration test certificate only
- • You need a formal ISO 27001 certification audit body rather than an implementation partner
- • Your team will not accept any change to daily login habits
Enterprise tier: assessment, remediation roadmap, implementation and ongoing monitoring. Assessment takes 2 weeks; core hardening typically lands within 4 to 8 weeks, then continues as a managed service.
