About Ben Brown

One of the most common misconceptions about cyber security is that it’s a large business problem. WRONG! Over 40% of small businesses reported hacks in 2021. The truth is, small businesses are extremely vulnerable to cyber-attacks simply because they don’t think they are, or they think they can’t afford proactive cyber security. It’s a bit like cancer, we always believe it will happen to someone else, but just like cancer, it is likely to happen to 1 in 2 SMEs this year. We are a cyber security consultancy with a difference. We act like a hacker and scan your systems the way they would, looking for any open doors into your system. We focus on the perimeter of your system (which is where the hackers live) honing in on vulnerabilities and helping you fix them. There are two types of hackers – black hat (the bad guys) and white hat ethical hackers who endeavour to hack your system in the same way a black hat hacker would; the difference being they’re there to save you, not blackmail you. This is called penetration testing (pentesting). Unlike a lot of pentesting services, ours is extremely affordable. Whether you’re a seasoned IT professional or a business owner with no experience in cyber, we can help you. Through a combination of manual testing, automation, policy advice and training we will help you create a cyber security roadmap that will quickly secure your perimeter and keep you safe going forward. Can we offer you a magic fix or silver bullet? No, unfortunately, it’s not that easy. But we will demystify cyber security, frustrate the hackers, keep you GDPR compliant, help secure your data perimeter and keep you as safe as possible from cyber-attacks. Self-serve scans at incredibly low prices. Affordable managed plans for businesses who do not have in-house IT.
