Cyber security expertise you can verify

Hear from our customer Zapmap:
“Securing our Cyber Essentials and subsequent ISO 27001 certifications would have been a far greater challenge without Piran. Their support in meeting specific requirements and their quick responsiveness during audits were invaluable throughout the process; we truly couldn’t have done it without them.”
Firewalls
A good firewall acts as a barrier between your own trusted network and an untrusted network. After a cyber security audit, we’ll evaluate which firewall solutions are best suited to your business, whether hardware, software, or both. We’re on hand to help with firewall optimisation and performance, monitoring and maintenance, so your business is protected by a robust defence against cyber attack.
Intrusion Detection
Intrusion detection offers another level of protection against cyber threats, allowing for proactive monitoring of your network, so that security breaches can be identified and responded to in real time. From network-based to host-based intrusion detection, the right option will provide you with peace of mind and fortified cybersecurity defences.
Vulnerability Scanning
Vulnerability scanning tools will scan your network to identify any existing security vulnerabilities and potential breaches. With automated vulnerability scanning tools, we can undertake continuous monitoring of your systems, ensuring you stay one step ahead of any threats. We can help you identify and implement the best-fitting scanning solutions, ensuring your systems undergo regular internal and external scans for enhanced protection.
Antivirus Solutions
Antivirus solutions are another essential layer in a comprehensive cyber security defence. We provide antivirus solutions for business that offer comprehensive endpoint protection, ensuring the safety of your valuable data, devices and systems. With managed antivirus services and real-time scanning, we can proactively detect and mitigate potential threats. From remote working teams to high-risk organisations, we can help tailor your antivirus solutions to your business, ensuring that you’ve got robust protection in place.
Disk Encryption
A data breach can have serious consequences for any business; disk encryption is a way to ensure data security compliance and keep your data - and your customers’ data - safe. It'll help prevent unauthorised access to sensitive information in the event of theft, loss, or malicious access to the storage device. There are a range of options to choose from, from managed disk encryption to endpoint encryption solutions, designed to help secure your valuable information across all devices and endpoints.
Disaster Recovery & Business Continuity
Disaster recovery planning helps protect your business in the event of an unexpected disaster such as fire, flood, or cyberattack. It'll outline procedures to follow in the event of systems failure, to protect your data and your reputation, and to help you get back up and running as quickly as possible.
Managed Detection and Response (MDR)
Managed Detection and Response (MDR) helps protect your business by continuously monitoring your systems for suspicious activity and potential cyber threats. It combines advanced security technology with expert oversight to detect, investigate and respond to threats quickly, helping to reduce the risk of disruption, data loss and costly cyber incidents.
Helping your staff stay cyber secure
Technology is only one part of effective cyber security. Your employees also play an important role in protecting your organisation, particularly when dealing with phishing emails, suspicious links, passwords, sensitive information and unexpected requests. As part of a wider cyber security strategy, we can help businesses strengthen security awareness and encourage good security practices across their teams. This can include security awareness training, phishing awareness and guidance for staff on recognising and responding to common cyber threats. Combining informed employees with measures such as endpoint protection, firewalls, vulnerability scanning and Managed Detection and Response creates a stronger, layered approach to business cyber security.
Microsoft security expertise
Microsoft 365 sits at the heart of many businesses, making its security just as important as protecting physical devices and networks. As a Microsoft Solutions Partner for Modern Work, Piran has extensive experience supporting Microsoft environments for businesses in Cornwall and across the UK. We can help businesses configure and manage Microsoft 365 with security in mind, protecting business email, data, user accounts and collaboration tools while ensuring employees can work productively. We can also consider Microsoft security alongside your wider IT environment, combining it with measures such as endpoint protection, vulnerability scanning, encryption, monitoring and Managed Detection and Response where required. This joined-up approach means cyber security isn't treated as a standalone product: it's considered across the systems and services your business relies on every day.
