The Problem

It's not the attack you fear.
It's what comes after.

You've built a real business — clients, staff, reputation. But if something went wrong tonight, you don't have a plan, you don't have a person to call, and you don't know what your legal obligations are. That's what we fix.

📋
No plan if something goes wrong
If it happened tonight — who would you call? Most owners can't answer that.
👥
Staff making a costly mistake
68% of breaches start with one untrained employee clicking one link.
🔒
Ransomware locking everything
Average downtime: 21 days. Most small businesses can't survive that.
⚖️
Regulatory exposure you didn't expect
72 hours to notify the ICO. Most SMBs don't know what that involves.

most targeted by cybercriminals.

We understand the specific threats, regulations, and data obligations facing your industry — and build our services around them.

⚖️
Legal Practices
Critical Risk
Client funds, privileged communications, and SRA compliance obligations make law firms one of the most targeted sectors in the UK.
View sector detail →
🏥
Private Healthcare
Critical Risk
Patient records are worth 50x more than credit cards on the dark web. ICO and CQC dual regulatory exposure.
View sector detail →
📊
Accountancy Firms
Critical Risk
HMRC agent credentials, client financials, and payroll access — one compromised login can expose hundreds of clients.

💰
Financial Services
Critical Risk
FCA-regulated firms face both the direct damage of a breach and regulatory consequences for inadequate controls.

👔
Recruitment Agencies
High Risk
CVs, NI numbers, salary data, DBS checks — sensitive personal data at volume with often minimal security controls.

🛒
E-commerce & Retail
High Risk
Payment data, supply chain integrations, and platform dependencies. Downtime during peak trading is catastrophic.
