Fighting climate change

The service can be provided remotely therefore reducing the organisation's carbon footprint.

Covid-19 recovery

Our service can be delivered remotely thereby reducing the risk of Covid-19 transmission.

Tackling economic inequality

The centre of gravity for the business is in Manchester, creating and bringing high quality skills and jobs to the North West of England.

Equal opportunity

We are a small company and awarding us a contract will allow us to continue growing and employ people from diverse backgrounds.

Wellbeing

We believe our service makes IT environments safer and will improve the level of maturity in security operations across the SME market. This reduces the risk faced from cyber threats whether they are opportunistic attacks or advanced persistent threats from criminals or state sponsored organisations. Ultimately it helps to protect trust with the general public who are concerned about cyber-crime.
