Cybersecurity as a service, without an in-house security team
Managed security for growing businesses, with 24/7 monitoring, Zero Trust, endpoint protection, vulnerability scans, staff training and help with compliance.
The short answer
Cybersecurity as a service gives a growing business the protection of a full security team without hiring one. We watch your systems around the clock, set up Zero Trust access and protect every device. We also find and fix weaknesses before attackers do, train your staff, and help you reach and keep compliance with SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS or GDPR.
How it works
We assess your security.
We do a full review of how protected you are today and hand you the weaknesses, the compliance gaps and a plan for what to fix first. This usually takes one to two weeks.
We put the controls in place.
We set up firewalls, endpoint protection, a security event system and access management to suit your environment. That usually takes three to four weeks.
We support your certification.
For SOC 2, ISO 27001 or another standard, we guide the setup, write the documentation and help you through the audit. This usually takes three to six months.
We monitor and improve.
We keep watch around the clock, hunt for threats and review things regularly as your business and the threats change.

Where it fits
Cybersecurity as a service fits a business that holds customer data, takes payments, sells to larger companies that ask about security, or works in health or finance. If you only need a website or store kept updated and backed up, see security and maintenance.

We quote every plan in writing after a free consultation, and we agree the timeline in the same quote. Security tool licences are listed in the quote too. You'll find full details on the pricing page.
FAQ
How is this different from your maintenance plan?
Security and maintenance keeps a website, store or AI tool updated, backed up and fixed. Cybersecurity as a service covers the whole business, meaning every laptop and phone, your cloud accounts, your logins and your staff. It adds constant threat monitoring and help with compliance audits.
What is Zero Trust?
It's a way of running security where no user, device or process is trusted by default, even inside your office network. Access is checked every time, so a stolen password or an infected laptop can't reach everything.
Can you help us get SOC 2 or ISO 27001?
Yes. We put the controls in place, write the documentation, run continuous monitoring and support you through the audit. Certification takes months, so we plan it in stages.
What happens if we're attacked?
Monitoring raises the alert and the affected device or account is isolated. Then we work through the incident with you. We contain it, remove the attacker, restore service and record what happened for insurers or regulators.
Do you train our staff?
Yes. We run short, interactive security training and send simulated phishing emails, so your team learns to spot attacks before they click.
How much does cybersecurity as a service cost?
We quote every plan in writing after a free consultation. The price depends on the number of people, devices and cloud accounts, and on the compliance standards you need. Licences for security tools are listed in the quote.
