Antivirus Software

Our antivirus solution provides strong protection against malware, including viruses, ransomware and spyware, which is vital for churches managing sensitive data like member information and financial records. By continuously scanning and automatically updating, it ensures your systems are always secure, allowing your church to focus on its mission without worrying about security threats.

Endpoint Detection and Response

Our Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) services provide real-time threat detection, continuous monitoring and rapid response. Using advanced analytics, EDR identifies suspicious activity on any endpoint such as ransomware attempts or unauthorised logins before they escalate. Fast detection allows us to block access, isolate systems and prevent data loss, keeping your church’s network secure and minimising risks.

Email Security & Backup

Our email security service guards against email-borne threats and ensure regulatory compliance with advanced phishing protection and spam filtering. Our backup solution securely stores critical emails and attachments, ensuring easy recovery and uninterrupted communications while protecting sensitive church information and your organisation’s reputation.

Security Awareness Training

Educating church staff on cybersecurity is crucial, as they help protect sensitive information. Training in recognising phishing, managing passwords and practicing secure behaviour reduces human error and strengthens your church’s defence against evolving cyber threats.
