Cybersecurity

Cybersecurity services in Ireland — identify vulnerabilities before attackers do.

We provide expert cybersecurity services that identify vulnerabilities before attackers do — building security into your development process and testing your applications thoroughly. Security is a growth enabler, not just a compliance checkbox.

Our services cover penetration testing, secure application development, code security audits, static code analysis, and GDPR-aligned data handling. We work with Irish SMEs who can't afford a full-time security team but can't afford a breach either.

From securing new builds at the development stage to hardening existing platforms and APIs, we take a practical, risk-based approach — prioritising fixes that have the highest real-world impact for your specific context.

Often paired with: Cloud Development, Web Development, Artificial Intelligence.

Use cases we fix

01

High-risk web platform

Issue

Your web application handles sensitive customer data but has never had a proper security review.

Fix

We perform a full penetration test and code audit, producing a prioritised remediation roadmap.

02

Customer data at risk

Issue

Your business collects customer data — addresses, payments, or health info — without clear security controls.

Fix

We review your data handling, implement encryption and access controls, and document your GDPR compliance position.

03

POS and payment security

Issue

Your payment systems or point-of-sale setup hasn't been reviewed for security vulnerabilities.

Fix

We assess payment systems, device security, and network exposure to identify and mitigate risk.

04

GDPR compliance gaps

Issue

You're not confident your systems and processes meet Irish and EU GDPR obligations.

Fix

We map data flows, identify compliance gaps, improve controls, and help you document your compliance position.

05

No incident readiness

Issue

You have no plan for what to do if you're breached — no playbook, no contacts, no clear steps.

Fix

We create an incident response playbook so your team knows exactly what to do if something goes wrong.

06

Ongoing monitoring gaps

Issue

No one is watching your systems for suspicious activity — threats could be active without your knowledge.

Fix

We implement monitoring, alerting, and regular security reviews to keep your threat exposure visible and manageable.

Industry FAQs

Trades & Construction

  • Can you secure customer data we hold? Yes — we harden storage, permissions, and access controls to protect customer records and payment data.
  • Do we need cybersecurity as a small business? Yes — SMEs are frequently targeted precisely because they're assumed to have weaker defences. A basic audit is a smart investment.

Food & Drink

  • Do you review POS and payment security? Yes — we assess point-of-sale systems, payment terminals, and network security for your business.
  • Are you GDPR compliant if you store customer emails? Storing emails requires consent and secure handling. We can review your setup and close any compliance gaps.

Professional Services

  • Can you help with GDPR readiness? Yes — we map data flows, identify gaps, improve controls, and document your compliance position clearly.
  • How often should we get security audits? We recommend audits before major releases, after significant changes, and at least annually for ongoing platforms.
