Shields Up

Independent IT security consultancy

Is your IT security where it should be?

We give you an honest picture of your IT security, your suppliers and your IT spending – and a fixed price for what needs to be done. The first check is free: a no-obligation conversation and high-level review of up to 1 hour, followed by a fixed-price quote.

Questions we often hear

Most enquiries start with one of these three questions.

“Is our IT security good enough?”

We review your systems, configuration and processes and tell you exactly where you stand – and what should come first.

“Are we getting what we pay our IT provider for?”

We compare contracts and service levels with what is actually delivered, and document the gaps.

“Why do our IT costs keep rising?”

We compare what you have bought with what your business actually needs, and find overlapping services and licences you don't use.

Your entire IT landscape – seen as one

Most organisations run on-premises systems, cloud services, networks and business systems that all have to work together. Security is only as strong as the weakest link – so we look at the whole picture.

  1. Infrastructure and operations

    • Servers and operations
    • Identity and access management
    • Remote workplaces
    • Databases
    • Backup and recovery
    • Microsoft environments
  2. Cloud and hybrid

    • Microsoft's cloud platform
    • Collaboration and email in the cloud
    • On-premises and cloud as one environment
    • Protection of servers and devices
  3. Networks and business systems

    • Firewalls
    • Network segmentation
    • ERP systems
    • Access and roles in business systems

One independent partner across your entire environment – not a new specialist for every system.

We don't sell products. We're on your side.

We have no licences to sell and no vendor agreements to consider. Our recommendations are based solely on your needs – no more, no less. We work mainly with small and medium-sized businesses – including the sole trader who just needs a sparring partner.
