We focus on the problems that other technology solutions tend to ignore.

The real problem is that staggeringly over 95% of data breaches have an element of ‘human error’. We all make mistakes.

All of our solutions are underpinned by zero trust principles, so no single error can cause a risk to data security

Cyber security is not just a technology decision, it’s a business decision.

Our mission

To build innovative and trusted products, that protect our clients from constantly evolving digital threats.

The future

To set the benchmark for cyber security, making cyber crime a thing of the past​.

Meet the team

Our leadership team brings decades of technology and commercial expertise across multiple domains.  Working with talented Developer, Operations, Marketing, and Business Development experts the company follows an agile ethos across the business to enable innovation and adaptability to meet the needs of current and future clients.
