Why Business Protect

Security that runs as part of your IT, not beside it

Most organisations don’t lack security products. They lack a joined-up way of running them.

Tools bought one at a time

Security products purchased and managed separately, and only reviewed after something goes wrong.

Policies that sit in a folder

Documents written once for an audit and never built into how your technology is run.

Evidence you can't produce

Clients, insurers and regulators asking you to prove your controls, not just describe them.

Training once a year

Staff awareness treated as an annual exercise rather than part of everyday operations.

Business Protect tiers

Choose the level of protection your organisation needs

Every tier includes a defined SMB1001 certification program as part of onboarding: Silver within 60 days for Essentials, and Gold within 90 days for Enhanced and Elite. Timelines start at formal kickoff and depend on access, licensing, approvals and the certification body.

Requires Microsoft 365 Business Premium, E3 with E5 Security, or E5. Essential Eight assessment and uplift is a separate engagement. Inclusions are confirmed in your proposal; we don’t publish pricing because every environment is different.
