About Us
Your tech partner
Essential cyber and information security services for organisations across sectors, offering proactive protection of data, applications, and infrastructure from evolving cyber threats and internal vulnerabilities.
Cyber and information security have become key challenges for private businesses and public sector organisations - costs in reputational damage, financial losses, theft of confidential data, and operational constraints to name a few. The challenges require multifaceted solutions that take a broad approach to information security management.
Closing the door
With the right strategy, organisations can protect themselves from the harms of cyber-attacks. However, the strategy must be broad, including a set of internal and external initiatives that consider the full picture.
BCN offer leading managed cyber and information security services, as well as solutions that take into account the full picture of a business’s vulnerability landscape. We believe that every organisations digital transformation and security journey must begin with Cyber Essentials certification.
Our Solutions
As a Cyber Essentials Certification Body, BCN helps businesses establish a strong foundation for cyber and information security. Our professionals will assess your environment with our “readiness check” to ensure it meets the necessary controls, then accredit your business with a 12-month Cyber Essentials certificate.
Endpoints are often the entry point for cyber-attacks. BCN’s Managed Defender for Endpoint protect your devices, including laptops, desktops, and mobile devices, from malware, ransomware, and other threats. With advanced threat detection and prevention, we ensure that your endpoints remain secure, even in remote working environments.
Networks are the backbone of modern businesses and securing them is critical. BCN’s network security solutions encompass firewalls, intrusion detection and prevention systems, virtual private networks (VPNs), and more. We design and implement robust network security architectures to safeguard your data and prevent unathorised access.
Managed Extended Detection & Response is an advanced cyber and information security service that combines two essential elements of cyber threat monitoring and incident response.
As organisations embrace modern work principles such as remote working and “bring your own device” it is crucial to manage the devices of employees in a modern way. BCN’s comprehensive mobile device management solution empowers workforce mobility and enhances productivity, without compromising on security.
