Cyber Security

How we can make Cyber Security work for you

Cyber Security is an issue for everyone. Hacks on major organisations and data beaches by big corporations make the news; but every day, out of the spotlight, countless individuals and SMEs fall victim to an ever-growing range of threats and vulnerabilities.

Most people know they need to do something about cyber security. But it’s a complex, rapidly changing area, and if IT isn’t your main responsibility or you don’t have a dedicated team to handle it, it’s hard to keep pace and manage things effectively.

Cyber Security for SMEs

The cyber security industry is itself almost entirely unregulated, making it difficult to know who to trust. It’s all too easy to spend a lot of money on something that does far more than you want, but not what you actually need.

All of which explains why we still see far too many SMEs sticking their head in the sand and just hoping it won’t happen to them. We want to change that. Because while having the right cyber security solution will inevitably cost you something, not having one could ultimately cost you everything.

We can help you to understand what good cybersecurity looks like for your SME, why it’s important, and how working with us can making delivering it in your business simple, affordable, and effective in protecting your data, reputation, and bottom line.

Our Cyber Security Offering

We understand that the cyber security landscape can be daunting, especially for SMEs. That’s why we’ve tailored our cyber security offerings to meet the specific needs of your business, providing peace of mind without breaking the bank.

We offer three main managed cyber security services designed to fit different levels of need: Basic, for those who need core protection; Standard, for a more comprehensive solution; and Pro, for advanced, all-encompassing security.

Each service is carefully crafted to address the unique challenges faced by SMEs, ensuring your business remains resilient against evolving threats.

What will work best for us as an SME?

Few SMEs have the luxury of an IT department with the necessary expertise to handle cybersecurity entirely in-house; indeed, in many SMEs we work with, IT isn’t even a separate function. To get the coverage and expertise you need, without hiring expensive in-house resources, the best option is to outsource it to a specialist provider.

You’ll be familiar with managed service providers (MSPs) for IT services; you may be one of the many SMEs are already working with one. At Acora One, we’ve taken that model and applied it to cybersecurity, acting as a managed security service provider (MSSP).

 

How does Acora One’s MSSP model work?

We bundle enterprise-grade technology with our experience and value-added services and offer them as a managed service package. It’s as a standalone service, so we can work alongside your existing MSP or your own IT team if you have them.

The main benefit is that our service package is specific to you, based on the number of users or protected assets (devices) you have within your IT environment. That means you’re paying only for what you actually need and use. It’s also scalable, so the service can flex as your business and user base evolves.

Another significant upside is that as well as your frontline protection, we’ll look after the backroom support, too. So you don’t need to worry about upgrades or maintenance; your solution will always be fully up to date. It also means you don’t need to employ people with the necessary experience and expertise to do it in-house.

Helpful FAQs

Cyber Security FAQs

At Acora One, we’ve always liked the simple cybersecurity model known as ‘the CIA Triad’. Nothing to do with the US intelligence agency, it describes the three things that cybersecurity is designed to protect. They are:

  • Confidentiality of data. Ensuring data is kept private and that only those with the necessary permissions have access to it.
  • Integrity of data. Making sure data can’t be modified, either maliciously or accidentally, without permission.
  • Availability of data. Ensuring users have access to the data they need, where, when and in the form in which they need it.

Obviously, we’re going to say you do. But if you’re still unsure, ask yourself two questions:

  • As a Board, do we know and understand what our cybersecurity risk is?
  • As a Board, do we know how we’re managing it?

If you and the senior leadership team can’t honestly answer ‘yes’ to both, you need a cybersecurity solution. It’s that simple.

We’ve forged strategic alliances with industry-leading tech providers to ensure you benefit from the most advanced and reliable cyber security solutions available.
