Cyber security FAQs

What are managed cyber security services?

Managed cyber security services provide ongoing protection, monitoring, and management of your IT environment to defend against cyber threats. This includes threat detection, vulnerability management, incident response, and continuous security improvement, all delivered by specialist security professionals.

Why is cyber security important for UK businesses?

Cyber threats continue to increase in frequency and sophistication, targeting businesses of all sizes. Effective cyber security helps protect sensitive data, maintain business continuity, meet regulatory requirements, and reduce the financial and reputational impact of cyber incidents.

Are cyber security services only for large organisations?

No. Small and mid‑sized businesses are frequently targeted by cybercriminals because they often lack in‑house security expertise. Managed cyber security services provide enterprise grade protection that is scalable and cost effective for organisations of any size.

What types of cyber threats do you protect against?

Cyber security services protect against a wide range of threats, including ransomware, phishing attacks, malware, data breaches, insider threats, and unauthorised access to systems and networks.

How do you monitor for cyber threats?

We use advanced security tools and 24/7 monitoring to identify suspicious activity across networks, endpoints, cloud platforms, and user accounts. This allows threats to be detected and responded to quickly, often before they can cause damage.

Do you offer protection for Microsoft 365 and cloud environments?

Yes. Cyber security services include protection for cloud platforms such as Microsoft 365 and Azure. This covers identity security, email protection, data loss prevention, endpoint security, and secure access controls to reduce cloud based risks.

Can you help with compliance and regulatory requirements?

Yes. Cyber security services can support compliance with regulations and standards such as Cyber Essentials, Cyber Essentials Plus, ISO 27001, and GDPR. This includes implementing appropriate controls, improving visibility, and providing guidance to meet audit and compliance requirements.

What happens if there is a security incident?

If a security incident occurs, we provide incident response support to contain the threat, minimise impact, and restore systems securely. This includes investigation, remediation, and recommendations to prevent similar incidents in the future.

Do you provide user training and awareness?

Yes. Human error is a common cause of cyber incidents. Security awareness training helps employees recognise threats such as phishing emails and social engineering, reducing risk and strengthening your overall security posture.

How do managed cyber security services fit with our existing IT setup?

Cyber security services can integrate with your existing infrastructure, devices, and applications. We assess your current environment and design a security approach that complements your technology stack without unnecessary disruption.

What our customers say

"Today, to manage the built environment effectively, you have to digitise it in some way. We're training drone pilots to give us digital images of areas... putting GoPro cameras on the front of trains to survey lines. It's becoming much more of a digital environment. For us, it's about using tools to get a better view or control of scope and scale."

"I’ve been at Westbridge for about ten years and am now responsible for about 250 users, and I’d say one thing that keeps me awake at night is making sure all our IT is set up and configured correctly to protect us from external threats. Attention to detail is really important to me – and so I need an IT partner that’s an extension of our team and one that takes care with the fine details."

"I’m someone who triple checks configurations. I want to make sure the right boxes have been ticked or not ticked, because not taking care over these details can have serious repercussions. It was clear during the incident that Wavenet takes the same approach – but it goes further back than that, right to when I first started working with them. I can tell they know what they’re doing when they’re setting something up, or fixing it."

How organisations can protect themselves from phishing and impersonation attacks

Phishing and impersonation attacks remain one of the biggest cyber threats facing UK organisations. With AI-generated emails, deepfake impersonation, and increasingly convincing social engineering, these attacks are more sophisticated and harder to detect than ever before.

What is network security and why it matters for UK businesses

Network security protects an organisation’s IT infrastructure, systems, and data by preventing unauthorised access, detecting threats, and ensuring secure communication across networks.
