One Step Ahead: The Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce's recession support initiative



Free IT security consultation

The internet plays a significant role in the efficient operations of both public and private sector organisations. This medium offers a fast and effective way to communicate with stakeholders who have become increasingly comfortable with sharing information and conducting transactions online.

Although there is an obvious need for a high level of security when it comes to financial transactions, such as online banking and trading, the need to secure access and authenticate users is common to other non-financial, information-sharing operations across many sectors. From accommodating remote workers to guaranteeing business continuity it is vital to ensure your IT network is securely protected and will be operational 24/7.

So what do you need to do to protect your organisation's IT network? Can this be achieved simply and cost-effectively? Michael Robertson, founding partner of security software solutions provider Commerce Media, is here to answer your questions.

Boasting impressive credentials - a Ministry of Defence website created by Commerce Media for the Disposal Services Authority (DSA) to sell surplus military stock recently won the e-Government Excellence Award for Shared Services, and the agency has been shortlisted in the security industry magazine's annual awards for Best SME Security Solution - Commerce Media can advise you on:

  • How to facilitate shared services
  • Managing a remote workforce securely
  • Strengthening IT disaster recover/ continuity procedures
  • Securing online transactions
  • Protecting sensitive data

The Chamber is delighted to offer one-to-one IT Security clinics with Michael, for which the initial one-hour consultation is completely free of charge.
