Shield247 - A safer digital world for every business
Our approach is to be an integral part of your team, shielding your business and vital data from cyber attacks. We focus on supporting your business and helping your team use technology securely and effectively. Managing and mitigating risks is a top priority; while we are certified to Cyber Essential Plus standards, in many areas we operate at ISO levels to ensure the highest level of security and reliability.
We take a proactive approach to our services, aiming to minimise outages and maximise system availability and uptime. Return on investment is central to our philosophy – we strive to provide solutions that are long-lasting, implemented correctly, and follow industry best practices, ensuring that your technology delivers real value over time.
Investing in the right technology can enhance both the efficiency and wellbeing of your team. It usually boosts productivity, while also increasing the profitability and competitiveness of your business. Systems that operate at the pace of your business make your team more efficient, allowing you to spend more time with customers and reducing the long hours often associated with running a business.
We provide both new and refurbished computers, helping manage budget constraints while also reducing waste. Above all, we protect your data and services with the utmost care, documenting every step, backing up before making changes, and treating your information and business as if they were our own.
