SME Secure helps small UK companies lock down the basics, get ready for Cyber Essentials, and prove to clients and insurers that their data is safe — without the jargon or the enterprise price tag.
Most cyber security is built for big companies with big budgets. We do the opposite — practical protection for teams who need to get the essentials right and keep them right.
We check your setup against the five government-backed security controls, show you exactly where you stand, and fix what's failing — so you pass with confidence, not guesswork.
Multi-factor authentication, secure configuration, software updates, access control. The unglamorous basics that stop the vast majority of attacks — set up properly, the first time.
Most breaches start with a person, not a computer. Short, plain-English sessions on phishing, passwords and the scams doing the rounds — the cheapest insurance there is.
Staying secure isn't a one-off. We keep an eye on your security position through the year — new starters, new devices, drifting settings — with a clear monthly report.
Running on Microsoft 365? We handle accounts, multi-factor, and security settings so it's locked down and looked after — without you needing an in-house IT team.
Cyber Essentials lasts twelve months. We track your expiry, remind you in good time, and handle the renewal — so your certification never lapses when you need it most.
It's a UK government-backed certification that proves your business has the basics of cyber security in place. More and more clients, contracts and insurers now ask for it — and most companies fail their first attempt over small things they didn't know to fix.
Increasingly required to bid for public-sector and larger-company contracts.
The five controls block the overwhelming majority of common cyber attacks.
A recognised mark that you take protecting their data seriously.
We're taking on a small number of founding clients with a complimentary readiness assessment — a clear report on where your business stands against the five controls, with no obligation. All we ask in return is your honest feedback.
