CONSULTING & TRAINING
The IT and cybersecurity knowledge your business needs.
One-to-one advisory, group workshops, and focused training, for businesses that want practical and specific IT and cybersecurity knowledge without the overhead of a fully managed service.
The problem
You need to know what you don't know.
Particularly when it comes to cybersecurity. The threat landscape for small businesses has changed significantly, and the gap between a business that's thought about this properly and one that hasn't is enormous. A single phishing email, a weak password policy, or a leavers process that misses something can cause serious damage.
Our Consulting & Training option is for businesses that want to close that knowledge gap and run the operation themselves. Whether that's a founder who wants proper IT strategy advice, a team that needs cybersecurity awareness training, or a growing business that wants expert input without the commitment of a managed service.
What's available
What we offer.
One-to-one advisory
For founders, operations leads, or office managers who want expert IT or cybersecurity guidance. We work through your specific questions, challenges, and priorities, practical and specific to your business.
Group workshops
For teams. Half-day and full-day sessions covering IT fundamentals, cybersecurity awareness, specific tools, and best practices. Hands-on, not slide-heavy.
IT strategy sessions
A structured review of your current IT setup, where the gaps are, what the risks are, and what a sensible IT roadmap looks like for a business your size.
Ongoing advisory retainer
A retained relationship for businesses that want an expert on hand regularly, as a sounding board, a second opinion, or a guide through a specific project.
Topics
What we can help with.
Cybersecurity fundamentals for SMEs
What the real threats look like, where the common weaknesses are, and what actually makes a difference, without the scaremongering or unnecessary complexity.
Phishing & social engineering awareness
The most common way businesses get compromised is through their people. We train your team to recognise and respond, with simulations, workshops, and practical exercises.
Password security & access management
Passwords, MFA, privileged access, shared accounts, the basics that many businesses still get wrong, with real consequences.
Microsoft 365 & Google Workspace security
Most businesses run on either M365 or Google (sometimes both) and most have them configured in a way that leaves real security gaps. We audit your setup and show you what needs tightening.
IT for new and departing staff
The risks around joiners and leavers are significant and underestimated. We help you build processes that closes every door properly.
Business continuity & backup
What happens if something goes wrong, ransomware, hardware failure, accidental deletion. Do you have a tested recovery plan? If not, we'll help you build one.
IT strategy for growing businesses
Where to invest, what to defer, how to think about IT as a business asset rather than a cost centre, for founders and leadership teams.
