Compliance Audits

Why Compliance Matters

Regulatory requirements and industry standards exist for good reasons. They protect customer data, ensure security, and maintain trust. Non-compliance can result in fines, legal issues, and damage to your reputation. Compliance audits help ensure your IT systems meet the standards and requirements that apply to your business.

We help businesses ensure their IT systems meet industry standards and regulatory requirements. We help you avoid costly fines and maintain customer trust by identifying compliance gaps and helping you address them. The goal is to make sure your IT practices align with the requirements that apply to your business.

GDPR Compliance

GDPR compliance is required for businesses that handle personal data of EU residents. This includes most businesses in the UK and many businesses elsewhere. GDPR requires you to protect personal data, handle it properly, and respond appropriately if there’s a data breach. Non-compliance can result in significant fines.

We assess your IT systems and practices for GDPR compliance. We look at how you collect, store, process, and protect personal data. We identify gaps and help you address them. We help you understand what GDPR requires and how to meet those requirements in practical terms. We also help with documentation and processes that demonstrate compliance.

Cyber Essentials Accreditation

Cyber Essentials is a UK government-backed scheme that helps organisations protect themselves against common cyber attacks. It’s a good baseline for security, and many contracts and tenders require it. Cyber Essentials Plus provides additional assurance through independent testing.

We help businesses achieve Cyber Essentials accreditation. We assess your current security posture against the Cyber Essentials requirements, help you address any gaps, and guide you through the certification process. We help you understand what’s required and make sure your systems meet those requirements. We can also help with Cyber Essentials Plus if you need the additional assurance.

How We Help

We start by understanding what compliance requirements apply to your business. Different industries and different types of data have different requirements. We help you identify what applies to you and what you need to do to meet those requirements.

We assess your current compliance posture by reviewing your IT systems, policies, and practices against the relevant requirements, identifying gaps and areas that need improvement. We provide clear reports that explain what we found and what needs to be done.

We help you address compliance gaps by providing guidance on what needs to be fixed and how to fix it, helping with implementation when needed, and assisting with documentation and processes that demonstrate compliance. We’re there to answer questions and provide support throughout the process.

Why This Matters

Compliance isn’t just about avoiding fines. It’s about protecting your business and your customers. Good compliance practices improve security, reduce risk, and build trust. They also make your business more attractive to customers and partners who value security and data protection.

We’ve helped businesses achieve compliance and maintain it over time. We understand that compliance requirements can seem overwhelming, and we help make them manageable. We focus on what actually matters for your business and help you meet requirements in a way that makes sense for your situation.
