At Hexagon IT we specialise in providing advanced cyber protection to small and medium size firms, without the need to invest in equipment and skills.While there are no guarantees with cyber crime, we make it hard for cyber criminals to hack your firm, and ensure you have a defence ready if they do. By regularly assessing the risks, putting protection and policies in place, we will make it harder for criminals to succeed and reduce the risk.Section 13 of the DPA provides a defence for firms who have taken “such care as in all circumstances was reasonably required to comply”.Basically – if you can show the measures you have in place and prove you monitor them regularly, you can show you took ‘reasonable steps’ to prevent the breach. Plus you’ll be able to negotiate better terms for your insurance and prove you're SRA compliant.How we help:MONTHLY PROGRAMOur system will monitor your activity, instantly resolve issues, and provide regular reports highlighting areas of risk, from £350pm.CYBER THREAT ASSESSMENT (FREE)The first step is to understand the threats you currently face.
