Conditional access, MFA done properly, mailbox rules audit, anti-phishing configuration and tenant baseline hardening. These are the settings that stop the most common real-world attacks on UK businesses.

Compromised mailbox? Ransomware note? We help you contain it, understand what happened, recover safely and close the door it came through.

Short, non-patronising training sessions and measured phishing simulations. Your people are the control that matters most, so we make them harder targets.

How an engagement runs
Every project follows the same honest shape.
-
01
Scope
A free call to understand your setup and what's worrying you. If we're not the right fit, we'll say so and point you somewhere better.
-
02
Assess
We look at the evidence itself: configurations, policies, backups, the lot. Not just running a scanner and printing the output.
-
03
Report
A short written report ranked by real-world risk, with costs and effort estimates. No 90-page PDF of red boxes.
-
04
Fix & verify
We remediate with you or your IT provider, then re-test to prove the gaps are actually closed.

Who you're dealing with
CYBER is the security consultancy arm of a working UK managed services practice: people who run networks, phone systems and Microsoft 365 tenancies every day, not auditors with a checklist.
That matters because most security advice fails at the practical step: the recommendations are right in theory and impossible in your actual environment. We've administered the systems we're securing, so our advice survives contact with reality.
We work with owner-managed businesses, professional practices, charities and schools. Organisations big enough to be a target and small enough not to have a security team.
