Cyber security is no longer an afterthought. Ransomware, phishing attacks and data breaches are happening with worrying frequency to Scottish businesses just like yours.

Why is Cyber Security Important
Probability
50% of UK businesses reported a data breach in 2024.
84% of companies reported at least one phishing attempt.
Cyber Criminals target everyone. There’s no such thing as too small or too irrelevant, you are on their radar.
Costs
Cyber Attack’s cost a lot more than cyber security. Attacks cause downtime and a lack of trust, and that’s best case scenario.
The average cost of a breach in the UK is around £10,000
Compliance
Many government and public sector contracts require you to be certified to a Cyber Essentials standard at the minimum.
Unlocking these lucrative contracts requires a commitment to your cyber security.

FAQs
Why is IT security important?
Businesses have a responsibility to their staff and customers to ensure the technology they are using to process and store their data is safe and secure. Failure to do so can result in hefty fines alongside losses in time, money, and reputation. For some companies, the reputational fall out from failing to protect themselves from a cyber attack is impossible to overcome. You can read more about IT security in our blog.
How can we help you with your IT security?
When it comes to IT security, having the right knowledge, equipment and experience is key. Some organisations might be lucky enough to have this in-house, but if you don’t, you’ll need to think about working with someone to ensure your systems remain secure. Even if you have a dedicated internal IT security person or team, you might still need additional support. That’s why we offer a bespoke service so you can cover what you need without paying for things you don’t.
Our bespoke IT security services cover the following:
- Network security solutions including cyber security strategy, data security and penetration testing
Firewall and content filtering solutions - Spam protection and cloud security
- IT security and cyber security awareness training
- Phishing simulation emails
How are we different to other IT security providers?
With the potential threats constantly evolving, your security solution will need to go beyond IT. We will work closely with you to understand your business and help you to put strategies and procedures in place to work alongside your systems, offering you lasting security.
We also offer cyber security awareness training to your staff, so that your whole team are aware of the dangers and how to protect themselves and your business.
What IT security services do we offer?
Our services cover:
- Network Security Solutions
We will work with you to ensure that your systems are protected from a potential attack. Our network security solutions include cyber security strategy, data security and penetration testing. Having a clear and effective strategy for your IT security means taking a proactive approach instead of having to react and repair the damage when an attack occurs.
- Firewall and content filtering solutions
Firewalls and content filtering are essential for any business to ensure your technology is not exposed to dangerous malware or inappropriate content. There are many options out there, so we can help you find the right level of protection for your business.
- Spam protection and cloud security
At best spam is annoying, at worst it can contain viruses that it can be hard to repair the damage from. Using spam protection avoids spam reaching your inboxes at all. If you use cloud-based systems and infrastructure, it is essential that you also have the systems in place to protect them. We can help you ensure your cloud-based systems run smoothly and securely.
- IT security and cyber security awareness training
Whatever the size of your organisation, it is important that your staff understand the potential online dangers and how to protect themselves against them. Our awareness training will help your staff to know what to look out for and what not to do when working online.
- Phishing simulation emails
Our phishing security test can be used to assess how susceptible your organisation is to a phishing attempt. You can use the results of the test to address any areas of weakness and educate staff to avoid a real attempt in the future.
