Cyber Security
In today's digital landscape, cyber crime and threats are a constant concern for businesses of all sizes. From attention-grabbing headlines about large-scale data breaches to internet fraud targeting vulnerable individuals, the risks are pervasive.
No business is too large or too small to be at risk—your data and systems are continually under threat. Partnering with leading cyber security firms in the UK, such as top cyber security services companies and providers, is crucial to safeguard your assets.
A cyber breach can be costly, not just financially but also in terms of reputational damage, which can be even more significant. Engaging with expert cyber security solution providers and IT companies ensures your business is protected from these ever-present dangers.
Effective IT security and protection for your modern business ...
Whether it's attention grabbing headlines about large scale data breaches or internet fraud perpetrated against vulnerable individuals, cyber threat is an invasive part of life.
No business is too large, or too small, to be at risk - that means your data and access to your systems are under continual peril.
A cyber breach will not only cost you money to rectify, the repetitional damage can be just as, if not more, significant.
Fortunately, you can defend your business with technology and, importantly, by training your people.

What our customers say
IKM were finding that increasingly as part of our tender process companies were being asked to be Cyber Essentials certified and not having the certification excluded us from applying for these tenders. Assisted by Grant McGregor, the application and auditing process was more straightforward as there were many processes already in place, but it was also an ideal opportunity to review our current systems and policies. We are looking to capitalise on our investment in the certification and shall now look to projects that were previously out of our scope.

We've had Grant McGregor support our IT aspects of our company for several years and the service has delivered more than we expected. Not only do they continuously monitor our IT security, but they advise on our planned IT upgrades and answer any IT related questions quickly. They've been especially responsive for our preparing for and attaining the Cyber Essentials security certification, giving us much greater peace of mind and confidence in the IT system that underpins our business.

User Vision
We were previously using another email security solution which required a fair amount of daily input from IT on the management side of things and wasn’t a service we had a lot of confidence in given how critical the service is to business operation. The new Email Security managed IT service we have from Grant McGregor has proven to be excellent – it’s reduced the IT management time to an absolute minimum and has given us absolute confidence that our email delivery is about as safe as it’s possible to be.
