Layered cyber security for
businesses. Not an afterthought.
Bitdefender GravityZone, Microsoft Defender for Office 365, email filtering, offsite backup, network oversight and security awareness training — all managed by your local IT team.
Cyber security for SMEs Yorkshire
Yorkshire businesses are being
targeted. Are you protected?
Cyber criminals don’t just target large enterprises. Small and medium businesses across West Yorkshire are attacked every day — through phishing emails, weak passwords, unpatched software and exposed remote access.
The good news is that most successful attacks are preventable. We build layered cyber security into everything we do — so that each layer catches what the last one misses, and your business is protected from the threats that are actually targeting businesses like yours.
The average cost of a cyber breach for a UK SME is over £4,200.
And that’s just the direct costs — before you count lost productivity, reputational damage and potential regulatory fines. Most breaches are preventable with the right controls in place.
- ✓Phishing is responsible for over 80% of reported cyber incidents in the UK
- ✓Ransomware attacks on SMEs increased by over 200% in 2023
- ✓Most breaches exploit known vulnerabilities that weren’t patched
- ✓Human error is involved in over 85% of security incidents
- ✓Cyber Essentials certification reduces your risk significantly
Our layered security approach
Multiple layers. Because one is never enough.
Each layer of our security stack catches what the previous one misses. Together they form a defence-in-depth approach that significantly reduces your risk.
Bitdefender GravityZone
Enterprise-grade endpoint protection managed centrally. Real-time threat detection, ransomware prevention, web filtering and daily security checks across all your devices.
Microsoft Defender for Office 365
Advanced email protection — safe links, safe attachments, anti-phishing and spoof intelligence. Stops malicious emails before they reach your inbox.
Email Filtering & Anti-Spam
Multi-layer email filtering before messages reach your mail server. Reduces spam, blocks known malicious senders and catches phishing attempts at the gateway.
Offsite & Cloud Backup
Encrypted, offsite backups of your critical data — including Microsoft 365 cloud-to-cloud backup. If ransomware hits, you can restore without paying a ransom.
Unifi Network Oversight
Managed Ubiquiti Unifi network infrastructure — properly segmented, monitored and hardened. Guest WiFi isolated from your business network. Firewall rules maintained.
Security Awareness Training
KnowBe4 phishing simulations and security training for your staff — because your people are both your biggest vulnerability and your best line of defence.
Multi-Factor Authentication
MFA enforced across Microsoft 365, VPN and critical business systems. A stolen password alone isn’t enough to get in.
Patch Management
Automated patching of Windows, Office and third-party applications via Ninja RMM. Known vulnerabilities closed before attackers can exploit them.
Security Monitoring & Alerting
24/7 monitoring across your endpoint and email environment. Unusual activity is flagged immediately and investigated by our team.
Are you actually protected?
Most businesses think they’re covered.
Until they’re not.
Having antivirus installed doesn’t mean you’re protected. Most cyber incidents we investigate involve businesses that thought they were fine — until a phishing email got through, a password was compromised, or a ransomware attack encrypted their files.
Our free Protection Check takes 10 minutes and gives you an honest picture of where your gaps are — without any obligation to do anything about it with us.
🛡️ Take the free Protection Check →Common gaps we find in Yorkshire businesses
❌
No MFA on Microsoft 365
Passwords alone are not enough. One compromised account can give attackers access to everything.
❌
Consumer antivirus on business devices
Free antivirus isn’t managed centrally. You have no visibility of threats across your fleet.
❌
No email filtering at the gateway
Basic junk mail filters aren’t enough. Sophisticated phishing gets through.
❌
No offsite backup
Backups on the same network as your data can be encrypted by ransomware too.
❌
Unpatched devices
Known vulnerabilities in Windows and Office are actively exploited. Patching is non-negotiable.
