Essential cyber security
for SMEs
Protect your people, data and systems from cyber
threats with our Cyber Security Toolkit.
We’ve done the hard work so you don’t have to. Our team of experts have researched the best cyber security solutions on the market for SMEs and created a package that covers your essential security needs.
If you’re not sure where to start your cyber security journey, we’ve created a handy Cyber Security Toolbox designed to help you secure your business.
Level 1 - Cyber Essentials & Cyber Essentials Plus certification
We always recommend businesses start their cyber security journey by working towards the Cyber Essentials certification. Cyber Essentials is a government and industry backed scheme designed to help keep your data safe from cyber attacks. It’s recommended by the NCSC as the minimum standard of cyber security for all organisations.
The number of businesses achieving Cyber Essentials or Cyber Essentials Plus certification is growing year on year, and business leaders are steadily recognising the value certification brings to their organisations.
The scheme provides clear guidance on the implementation of specific security controls, designed to be achievable by organisations of all sizes. The number of organisations achieving Cyber Essentials or Cyber Essentials Plus continues to grow year on year as business leaders recognise the value that certification brings to their organisation.

Level 2 - Certification, Human Risk Management & Security Monitoring
Whilst obtaining Cyber Essentials certification means you have implemented the recommended security measures correctly; it doesn’t provide a continuous monitoring of your systems all year.
Having a robust set of measures in place is the only effective way to ensure your organisation is protected throughout the year. After all, your business could be compromised by just one well-crafted, well-researched phishing email that lands in an employee’s inbox. Common attacks like phishing continue to evolve rapidly, leading to more breaches, costly financial implications, and damaging data loss.
By educating employees in cyber awareness, they are empowered to identify and report threats and become advocates for your organisation’s security. As human behaviour is a major contributor to data breaches managing how they respond to cyber threats is one of the most impactful ways you can improve your cyber security.
Our Human Risk Management tool is the modern approach to security awareness training, combining phishing simulations, customised and continuous cyber awareness training, dark web monitoring and policy management in one place to help strengthen your cyber defences.
Adding vulnerability scanning and endpoint monitoring gives an additional layer of protection should a threat attempt to infiltrate your systems. A software agent is installed on all user devices (desktop, laptop and mobile) which regularly scans the endpoint for threats – meaning incidents can be quickly identified and resolved.
