We understand that a single breach can jeopardise client trust, damage your reputation, and disrupt your accounting operations. Our cyber security services are designed to provide peace of mind by keeping your confidential information safe, secure, and compliant with regulatory standards like the Data Protection Act and FCA regulations. Here’s how we help:
Award Winning Firewalls
To protect your systems from hackers and unwanted intrusions, we install advanced firewalls—tools that act as a barrier between your network and potential threats. These firewalls filter harmful traffic, block suspicious activity, and ensure only authorised users can access your systems.
Protecting Your Emails and Web Activity
Our Managed Mail Filtering service protects your inbox by scanning emails for phishing attempts, suspicious links, or attempts to steal data. On the web, our Web Filtering service blocks harmful websites and malware by monitoring traffic in real time.
Securing Sensitive Client Data
To ensure client information and sensitive financial data remains confidential, our Data Loss Prevention (DLP) tools restrict unauthorised sharing of data through methods like USB drives, email attachments, or cloud uploads to platforms like Dropbox.
Keeping Your Systems Up to Date and Protected
Outdated software can leave your systems vulnerable to attacks. Our Patch Management service ensures your programs are always updated with the latest security fixes. We also provide managed antivirus solutions, which not only block known viruses but also detect and stop new, emerging threats.
