Our Comprehensive Cyber Security Services
Cyber attacks have become one of the biggest risks for every organisation in every sector, learn how our services can protect your organisation.
The Cyber Security Audit service offers a holistic examination of your IT environment, providing a 360-degree view. Through a thorough review across 6 critical areas, we aim to pinpoint high-risk issues that could potentially expose you to cyber threats:
1. Internal Infrastructure Review
2. Microsoft 365 Phishing and Impersonation
3. Dark Web Scan
4. Microsoft 365 Security Review
5. Copilot Readiness Assessment
6. Cyber Essentials Gap Analysis
Within the audit, we will bring attention to vulnerabilities present in your IT infrastructure, outline key areas requiring improvement, and present expert recommendations for you to implement to secure your IT infrastructure.
The Cyber Essentials scheme, crafted by the UK Government and endorsed by the industry, outlines a set of criteria aimed at enhancing cyber security. These universal standards, once met, offer a competitive edge in any modern organisation. Our expert team will then provide support and guidance to help your organisation achieve the Cyber Essentials & Cyber Essentials Plus certification.
Cyber Essentials as a Service is a solution that allows you to maintain year-round compliance for all your endpoints against the Cyber Essentials requirements. This service is fully managed by Sharp, meaning you can focus on your core operations while ensuring that your cyber security is in good hands.
Protect your devices and network with our advanced Endpoint Security solution, ensuring a secure digital environment.
As hybrid working becomes increasingly common in organisations, it is crucial to establish robust cyber security measures to safeguard all endpoints. Cyber threats are constantly evolving, with criminal’s now exploiting our new work patterns. From phishing emails to malware, attackers exploit the absence of immediate IT support in the office.
Sharp's Endpoint Security Solution’s offer peace of mind by ensuring continuous monitoring and security for your devices, regardless of your team's location.
Safeguard your communication channels with our Email Security solution, which protects against phishing, malware, and other cyber threats.
Email security encompasses the range of measures employed by businesses to safeguard email communications, accounts, and services from unauthorised access. These methods include educating staff, implementing best practice guides, employing spam filters, enabling two-factor authentication (2FA) or multi-factor authentication (MFA), utilising anti-virus protection, and incorporating data encryption.
Sharp's Email Security services are designed to defend and secure email communications, accounts, and services, ensuring protection against unauthorised access or compromise.
Our robust Firewall Solution create a digital barrier, protecting your network against cyber threats and unauthorised access.
With the increasing frequency and sophistication of cyber threats, organisations, regardless of size, need to stay vigilant and safeguard themselves against emerging risks. A robust and adaptable cyber security strategy, including network firewall security, is a vital component of this protective framework.
Ensure business continuity with our Backup and Disaster Recovery solution, minimising downtime and mitigating the impact of unforeseen incidents.
Strategic planning for IT disaster recovery is essential for maintaining seamless business operations in the face of unexpected disasters. Equally crucial is ensuring that everyone within your organisation is well-informed about the necessary actions to maintain business continuity and reduce downtime.
With Sharp Backup and Disaster Recovery, you gain access to the necessary tools to prepare for unforeseen circumstances. We collaborate with you to understand your business requirements and system usage, providing recommendations for industry-leading cloud backup solutions or disk-based backup. This ensures peace of mind, knowing that your systems and data can be restored in the event of a worst-case scenario.
User Awareness Training
Even with a multi-layered approach to Cyber Security, often the weakest link can be the people within an organisation. Without a positive security culture, individuals may hesitate to report security breaches, regardless of their severity.
Embracing a positive security culture involves nurturing security awareness among your teams, which plays a pivotal role in safeguarding your company against cyber attacks and breaches. A security-aware team serves as a human firewall, acting as the first line of defence in protecting your organisation. Sharp's Security Awareness as a Service (SAaaS) facilitates this process, providing comprehensive solutions to mitigate risks, deliver training, and offer educational resources for your team on cyber security throughout the year.
SAaaS is not about turning your teams into cyber security experts; rather, it's about arming them with the necessary tools and insights to recognise and report potential threats effectively. This proactive approach ensures that your organisation remains resilient against cyber attacks and breaches.
Our Security Awareness as a Service solution begins with an initial assessment, where all relevant team members are evaluated on their knowledge of key cyber security areas, including incident reporting, internet use, social media, email security, passwords and authentication, mobile devices, and human firewalls. This assessment helps us gauge the overall level of cyber security knowledge across your organisation, allowing us to tailor user awareness training to address specific needs effectively.
