Cybersecurity
Cybersecurity that fits an SME, not a bank
You don't need a security operations centre. You need the few controls that stop the attacks that actually hit small businesses — and a plan for the day something goes wrong.
Cybersecurity advisory helps you find your real risks and close them before they become incidents — through risk assessment, sensible policies, incident-response planning and staff training. We focus on the threats that actually target SMEs (phishing, weak access, unpatched systems) rather than scaring you with enterprise-grade overkill.
Why small businesses are the easy target
Attackers don't skip you because you're small — they prefer you, because small firms tend to have the weakest defences and the least preparation. One phishing email, one reused password, one unpatched laptop, and you're dealing with locked files, a drained account, or a data breach you have to disclose to clients.
The over-correction is buying expensive tools you can't run. The under-correction is hoping it won't happen to you. What works is a clear-eyed look at where you're actually exposed, the basics done properly, and a plan for the bad day — sized for a team like yours.
What we actually do
The controls that matter for SMEs, in the order that reduces risk fastest.
Risk & vulnerability assessment
We map where your data, money and access actually sit, and where an attacker would get in — in plain English.
Security policies that get used
Access, passwords, devices, data handling — written so your team can follow them, not filed and forgotten.
Incident response plan
A simple, rehearsed playbook for what to do in the first hour of a breach, so panic doesn't make it worse.
Staff awareness training
Most breaches start with a person. We train your team to spot phishing and social engineering before they click.
Cloud & access hardening
Practical fixes — multi-factor authentication, least-privilege access, backups that actually restore.
Audit & client-assurance readiness
Get ready for the security questionnaires clients and tenders increasingly send.
How we work
Risk-led, so effort and budget go to your biggest exposures first.
Assess the real risk
We look at your systems, data and habits and rank exposures by likelihood and damage.
Fix the basics first
Multi-factor auth, backups, access control, patching — the cheap moves that stop most attacks.
Prepare for the bad day
Incident-response plan and team training so a mistake doesn't become a disaster.
Build the habit
Leave you with policies and a review rhythm so security doesn't decay the moment we leave.
What you walk away with
- A clear picture of your real risks — ranked, not a generic checklist.
- The basic controls that block the majority of attacks on small businesses.
- An incident-response plan your team has actually seen before they need it.
- Staff who recognise phishing and social engineering.
- Confident answers to the security questionnaires clients and tenders now send.

Cybersecurity questions SMEs ask
We're small — are we really a target?
Yes. Attackers automate and target weak defences, which favours small firms. The most common incidents — phishing, ransomware, account takeover — hit SMEs precisely because they're under-prepared. The good news is that the basics block most of them.
Do we need expensive security software?
Usually not to start. The highest-return moves — multi-factor authentication, reliable backups, least-privilege access, staff awareness and patching — are mostly configuration and discipline, not big licences. We fix those first and only recommend tools that earn their cost.
What's the single most valuable thing we can do?
Turn on multi-factor authentication everywhere and train your team to spot phishing. Those two address the entry points behind a large share of SME breaches. We make them stick rather than leaving you a slide deck.
What if we get breached — can you help?
We help you prepare so the first hour goes well: who to call, what to isolate, what to preserve, and how to communicate. A rehearsed incident-response plan is the difference between a contained event and a crisis. We build that with you before you need it.
Can this help us pass client security checks?
Yes. Clients and tenders increasingly send security questionnaires. We get your policies, controls and evidence in order so you can answer honestly and win the work instead of stalling.
Find your weak points before someone else does
A short security review tells you where you're actually exposed and what to fix first. No fear-selling — just the priorities.
