Why IT Security Matters More Than Ever
Ransomware attacks on UK SMEs increased sharply through 2024 and 2025. NHS Trusts and public sector bodies face sustained targeted attacks. Small businesses are increasingly targeted precisely because they're assumed to have weaker defences.

Firewall Management
Configuration, monitoring and ongoing management of perimeter and internal firewalls. Regular audits and rule reviews.
Threat Monitoring
24/7 security event monitoring through Netminder. Correlation across network, endpoint and cloud layers. Alert triage and escalation by our Manchester security team.
Vulnerability Assessment
