Cyber, online ID and social media response, resilience and recovery services for families and small businesses
Value. Support. Resolution. Protection.
With more than 70% of the UK population having been targeted by a scam in the last 12 months, and 38% of micro- and small businesses having identified a cyber attack on them, we understand that many of us up and down the country have never felt more vulnerable to cyber criminals.
For the first time, you can offer your employees, clients and customers our cyber emergency response and resilience services to help combat one of the fastest growing and most invasive crimes of the 2020s – enhancing your value to them in the process.
Some of the cyber and online ID-related incidents we help with:
For families…
We’re here to help individuals and families if, just by living their lives, they happen to click on a scam link they shouldn’t, someone else gets access to their online accounts, personal photos and documents are lost, stolen or shared, or if a device becomes infected with a virus or other malware.
Our CYBERSOS® range of services starts with our 24/7 UK-based family cyber emergency helpline.
But what happens when our personal data is compromised when it’s out of our control – held somewhere on a corporate server – and is then hacked?
Where do we turn then?
ACTIVID™ is our answer to that providing families and business owners with immediate alerts, recovery and protection services should our personal details be exposed by someone illegally accessing a third party’s systems.
For businesses …
Likewise for micro-SMEs – in a world where there are very few affordable options for entrepreneurs and small enterprise owners to improve their resilience to cyber attack, our ACTIVCYBER® micro-SME cyber assistance service can help prepare for and respond to intrusion and interruption.
Trusted experts ready to support at what can be anxious or very distressing times – especially if there are other family members involved or if someone’s income is on the line.
And, of course, we’re also there before a criminal strikes. Our online content, tools and advice can help in preventing scams or device or network infection occurring in the first place.
