Truststream Security Solutions was set up by Paul Sullivan and Bryan Thomson  in 2011. Both Directors are passionate about security and the service they provide to their clients. As experts in security they saw the need for a business that approached security in a practical and pragmatic way but was tailored to clients needs. There are many common misconceptions among SMB’s around security threats to their business that are placing businesses at undue risk, but the perennial perception of the threat is:

“It’ll never happen to me, I’m just a small business!”

I’m sorry but the simple fact is if you’re in business, you’re a target. If you’re business is connected to the Internet then you’re already under attack. It is no longer a question of if but rather when and how. Hackers are exploiting this misconception to greater extents. There has been a very definite paradigm shift in the tactics of hackers globally that has resulted in SMB’s becoming a greater target for attacks. As such, we work closely with you to understand your business and your appetite for risk. Reducing the complexity down to simple actionable information that can be communicated clearly throughout the organisation in a way that is relevant to you and your business.

This can take any number of forms from a full security audit, training and education of staff to full management and monitoring of cutting edge security products. Allowing you to get on with managing and growing your business comfortable in the knowledge that you have experts on hand to assist you at every step of the way. IT security can be a daunting subject – but it doesn’t need to be. The worst thing you can do is to bury your head in the sand and ignore the threat. We are always happy to have a chat over a coffee to discuss taking your first step towards making your business more secure.
