Experienced advice when you need it.

Get senior, independent cyber security support without needing to build a full internal security team. Alcedo works alongside you and your existing IT provider to help make better decisions, reduce risk and keep security moving in the right direction.

WHY ADVISORY

Sometimes you need expertise, not another piece of software.

Security questions increasingly appear in customer conversations, technology projects, supplier decisions, audits and day-to-day operations. Alcedo gives growing businesses access to experienced advice when those questions arise — without adding unnecessary complexity or selling you products.

WHERE WE CAN HELP

Practical support across the security decisions growing businesses face.

Security priorities

Understand what matters most, where to invest and what can reasonably wait.

Review important security settings, access controls and areas where cloud services can be better protected.

Security weaknesses and updates

Help make sense of security weaknesses, software updates and which issues genuinely need urgent action.

Identity and access

Improve how accounts, administrator access, joiners, movers and leavers are controlled.

Suppliers and customers

Security incidents

Security roadmap

Turn a collection of individual problems into a realistic, prioritised improvement plan.

HOW IT WORKS

Support shaped around the problem.

Advisory work can be a focused piece of support for a specific issue or an ongoing relationship giving your business access to experienced security guidance as requirements evolve.

Focused advice

Help with a specific security question, decision or project.

Project support

Security input during a technology change, customer requirement or improvement programme.

Ongoing advisory

WORKING WITH YOUR IT PROVIDER

Independent security expertise, not replacement IT support.

Your IT provider may already do an excellent job running your systems. Alcedo complements that relationship by providing an independent security perspective: helping define what good looks like, identifying priorities and working constructively with whoever manages your technology.

THE OUTCOME

Better decisions. Clearer priorities. Less uncertainty.

Know which security issues actually matter · Make informed decisions before spending money · Give customers greater confidence in your approach · Provide clearer direction to your IT provider · Build security into business and technology decisions · Create a realistic path for improving security over time
