No business should be without cyber security. With new threats emerging all the time and hackers making millions from cyber crime, every organisation needs to be prepared.
We’re dedicated to protecting our clients – arming them with powerful security technology and the knowledge to stay ahead of the criminals.
If anyone tells you they have 100% effective cyber security, they’re not being completely honest. But while you can’t ever achieve perfection, you can substantially reduce your risks. How? With the right mix of training, technology and support. Here are just a few things you’ll need to consider.
Hackers often look for weaknesses in software, which they can exploit. When these exploits are found, software companies will usually release updates to defend against them – but in most cases it’s up to users to install them.
If you’re not keeping your software up to date, you’re putting your business at risk.
Hardware manufacturers don’t support their products forever, so older security solutions may not be effective against the latest threats. An old firewall, for example, could be providing you less protection than you think.
When was the last time you had an IT audit to test your security hardware?
Human error is a leading factor in successful cyber attacks. All it takes is for one person in your business to make a mistake, and you could find yourself facing a major security breach before you know it.
How much do your people know about cyber security, and are they following best practice guidelines?
As well as a range of cyber security services, TMB Group provides business-class security hardware, including firewalls and secure data storage.
Any hardware we deploy is thoroughly tested and configured to offer maximum benefit to our customers.
What does it mean to be a security-first business? For TMB Group, it means always taking cyber security into account, no matter what service we’re providing for our customers.
So whether we’re installing news servers, upgrading Windows or installing new network equipment, we make sure you’re aware of any security implications. And if we see any security weaknesses in your business, we’ll be sure to let you know.
TMB's fully managed monitoring service ensures the security and health of your business computers.
Traditionally, IT support has worked on a ‘break/fix’ basis. This means your IT support team only know you have a problem when you report it. The result is downtime, while you wait for an engineer to be assigned to your support ticket and then wait for them to fix the issue.
With TMB’s Group managed services, we’re able to constantly monitor the performance and health of key systems, like computers and servers. When an issue arises, our support team will be alerted and will either fix things remotely or assign an engineer. In many cases, you and your team will never even know there was an issue, and there won’t be any disruption to your business.
One of the best things about our managed services is that, unlike ‘break/fix’ support, they’re subscription based. So rather than getting big bills whenever something goes wrong, you pay a fixed amount each month, giving you greater control over your IT expenditure.
As well as our helpdesk team, you can also talk to your dedicated account manager or to one of TMB’s Group department managers. When you sign up with us, we’ll give you all the information you need to contact the right person at the right time for you.
Yes, we can supply everything from PCs and servers to firewalls and routers. We also carry out infrastructure projects, including network planning and deployment.
Our response times vary on a sliding scale, dependent on the severity of individual incidents. High-priority issues, for example, have a first response time of under 30 minutes.
We specialise in providing IT solutions to SMEs, ranging from one-man bands to larger companies with hundreds of users. We can do this because our services are intrinsically designed to scale up as needed. That also means if your business grows (as we hope it will), your TMB Group services will grow with it.
If you’re an IT manager, you’ll probably have your own plans, and TMB Group is more than able to work alongside them or to make best-practice recommendations. But if you’re not technologically inclined, we can provide you with all the assistance you need to make an informed choice. Indeed, by helping our customers choose IT services and products they will actually benefit from, we aim to develop long-lasting, valuable business relationships that work for everyone involved.
