Protect identities
Strengthen MFA, privileged access, sign-in controls and account monitoring so compromised credentials are less likely to become a wider incident.
Cyber security
Turn cyber risk into clear, practical priorities.
CompTech brings identity, devices, email security, staff awareness and recovery together so you can understand the main risks and decide what to tackle first.
A layered approach
Good cyber security is about layers, not one product.
No single tool protects an organisation on its own.
Accounts, devices, email, users, Microsoft 365, backup and recovery all need to work together, with clear responsibility for what happens when something looks wrong.
CompTech helps organisations understand those layers, close practical gaps and build a security plan around the risks that matter most.
Protect devices
Combine endpoint protection, updates, patching, device management and vulnerability visibility around the devices people actually use.
Protect people and email
Reduce common routes into the organisation through better email protection, staff awareness and clearer reporting when something looks suspicious.
Prepare to recover
Make sure backup, recovery and continuity are part of the cyber security conversation before an incident happens.
Identity and Microsoft 365 security
Identity is where many modern attacks start.
Attackers do not always need to break in. Sometimes they just log in.
Stolen credentials, hijacked sessions and gaps in MFA or access controls can give an attacker access without the warning people expect from a traditional malware attack.
CompTech helps organisations strengthen MFA, Conditional Access and privileged access, with the exact controls depending on Microsoft 365 licensing and the agreed service. Where monitoring is included, we can also review suspicious sign-ins, unexpected MFA registrations and account behaviour that may point to compromise.
Explore Microsoft 365 managementModern endpoint security, EDR and MDR
Modern endpoint security is more than antivirus.
Traditional antivirus remains useful for known malware, but modern attacks can use stolen accounts, trusted tools and behaviour that does not look like an obvious malicious file.
Traditional antivirus
Looks mainly for known malicious files and signatures, providing a useful but limited layer of protection.
EDR
Endpoint Detection and Response looks for suspicious activity and behaviour on devices and gives better visibility into what happened.
MDR
Where it is included in the agreed service, Managed Detection and Response adds people and process around endpoint security, with continuous monitoring, investigation and escalation.

Vulnerability and web protection
Find weaknesses and block more threats earlier.
Vulnerability management and protective web controls help organisations find exposed weaknesses, reduce avoidable risk and rank findings for action.
External exposure
Identify exposed ports, services and internet-facing systems that may be visible outside the organisation.
Internal weaknesses
Find unsupported systems, vulnerable services and configuration issues inside the network.
Protective DNS and web filtering
Protective DNS and filtering can reduce access to known malicious, phishing and unsuitable domains at the DNS layer. It is one security layer and does not replace endpoint or email protection.
Prioritise findings
Separate meaningful risks from background noise so the most important findings can be planned and addressed first.
Vulnerability scanning provides useful evidence about known weaknesses, but it does not prove that an environment is secure.
Email security and staff awareness
Email security still depends on both technology and people.
Phishing, credential theft, malicious attachments and impersonation remain common routes into organisations. Technical controls work best when staff can also recognise suspicious activity and report it quickly.
- email protection for suspicious messages, links, attachments and impersonation
- SPF, DKIM and DMARC to help authenticate sending domains where appropriate
- a clear route for users to report suspicious messages
- phishing awareness, unexpected MFA prompts and account security
- safe use of AI tools where relevant
For permissions, shadow AI, sensitive data and acceptable use, see our AI & Copilot governance guidance.
Backup and recovery
Cyber security also means being able to recover.
Preventing every incident is unrealistic, so recovery needs to be part of the security plan.
CompTech helps organisations understand what data and systems have independent backup or other recovery options, what can be restored, where recovery expectations need defining and what should be tested.
Explore Backup & Disaster RecoveryA recognised baseline
Cyber Essentials gives you a recognised security baseline.
Cyber Essentials focuses on practical controls around devices, software, access, firewalls and malware protection. Cyber Essentials Plus adds independent technical verification of those controls.
CompTech can help you understand the scope, fix practical gaps, gather evidence and prepare for certification, while keeping the wider security plan moving beyond the certificate itself.

Seven questions worth asking about your cyber security.
You do not need to be a security specialist to spot where responsibility or protection may be unclear.
- Is MFA enforced and are administrator accounts separately protected?
- Are supported devices using modern endpoint protection and being patched consistently?
- Are Microsoft 365 sign-ins and identity risks being monitored where the service and licensing support it?
- Are email authentication, filtering and user reporting arrangements in place?
- Are internet-facing and internal weaknesses being identified and prioritised?
- Is critical data, including Microsoft 365 where required, backed up independently and recovery tested?
- Do staff know how to recognise and report phishing, suspicious prompts or other unusual activity?
From findings to action
Turn the findings into clear priorities.
A long list of alerts and recommendations is not the same thing as a security plan.
Act now
Meaningful and immediate risks to accounts, devices, data or critical systems.
Plan next
Important improvements that need coordination, budget or wider technical change.
Keep under review
Lower-risk findings that should remain visible without causing unnecessary disruption.
Review your current position
Not sure where your biggest cyber risks sit?
Whether we lead IT or work alongside your internal team, the first job is to understand where the important gaps are.
We’ll help you turn those findings into priorities for action now, planned improvement and ongoing review.
