They’ll ask what evidence you have that you were managing it.
Your clients trust you with sensitive data. Regulators expect you to protect it. Cyber criminals are counting on you not to.
Can you actually prove your business is compliant?
Professional Services Firms Are a Prime Target
Solicitors. Accountants. Financial Advisors. HR Firms.
You handle some of the most sensitive data in existence — client finances, legal matters, personal records. That makes you valuable to cyber criminals and accountable to regulators.
The hard truth? Most firms your size are one phishing email away from a breach — and one breach away from an ICO investigation.
Three questions worth asking yourself:
- If a client asked “how do you protect our data?” — could you prove it?
- If your email domain was being spoofed to scam your clients right now — would you even know?
- If HMRC, the SRA or the FCA asked for your cyber security policy tomorrow — do you have one?
If you’re not sure, you’re not alone. But you do need to act.
We Help You Get Compliant, Get Certified and Get Proof
Cyber Essentials Certification
The UK Government-backed standard that proves your business has the fundamentals in place. Increasingly required to win contracts — and a proven deterrent against the majority of cyber attacks.
Pillar 2 — GDPR
GDPR Compliance
GDPR isn’t a tick-box exercise — it’s an ongoing responsibility. We help you understand what data you hold, how it’s protected, and what to do when something goes wrong. Before the ICO comes knocking.
Pillar 3 — DMARC
DMARC Email Protection
If your email domain isn’t protected with DMARC, criminals can send emails pretending to be you — targeting your clients. We implement and monitor DMARC so your domain is locked down and your reputation is protected.
