CYBER SECURITY, WELLINGBOROUGH
Cyber security will always be a significant challenge for businesses. You should not assume that as an SME you are safe from reputation damaging cyber attacks.
Protecting your business systems and sensitive data should be a top priority for any company in Wellingborough.
GDPR breach = Loss of business and reputation
Lost data = garners distrust and loses business
Locked out of systems = loss of revenue and production
Ransomware = causes accesibility, reputational, and revenue issues.
If a company has been the victim of a cyber attack, how confident would you feel trusting them with your personal or financial information? It’s a valid concern—especially if you own a small business yourself. Smaller firms are not off the radar, and unlike large corporations, they often don’t have the same resources to bounce back after a serious breach. If your business in Wellingborough were targeted, how prepared would you be?

Cyber Security Products and Services for Wellingborough
Ransomware
Just one careless click on a link in an email could lock you out of all your important files.
As it’s become more difficult to steal credit card details and personal information, cybercriminals have turned their attention to business data. For them, it’s a valuable asset—and for the owner, its loss can be devastating. Holding that data to ransom has become a profitable tactic.
Although recovery without payment is sometimes achievable, the most reliable way to protect yourself is by keeping a secure offline backup.
Hacking in Wellingborough
Many people believe cyber attacks only happen to big-name corporations, but that simply isn’t the case. You might question why cybercriminals would go after a small business in Wellingborough—but the reality is, smaller organisations are often seen as soft targets. Hackers know these businesses may lack robust defences, making them easier to breach. If your Wellingborough-based company were attacked, what confidential data could be at risk?
Phishing Emails
Phishing emails have become increasingly sophisticated, often looking very authentic and sometimes even copying the sender’s actual email address. They typically encourage you to download an attachment or click a link that installs harmful software on your device. Are your employees trained to recognise these scams? And what about you? Taking the time to ensure everyone is prepared can make all the difference.
Antivirus Software
This helps keep you safe online by blocking dangerous websites and stopping unsafe downloads from reaching your computer.
Some antivirus programs can slow your PC down, so we suggest options that offer strong protection without reducing performance.
A dependable antivirus will scan your system for viruses, malware, trojans, and other harmful software, isolating or removing threats to ensure your systems remain secure and run smoothly.
Spam Protection
Around 91 percent of cyber attacks begin with an email that seems completely harmless. Basic spam filters help by screening attachments and monitoring incoming messages, but more advanced threats can still slip through. That’s why we offer Advanced Threat Protection—intelligent software that can even detect concealed text within images, stopping hidden dangers before they reach your system.
Firewall & Routers
The standard routers provided by internet service providers often lack the necessary security to protect your customer and business data. Their default passwords tend to be simple and easy to breach. That is why we work with you to properly configure your router and improve its security. We also frequently add an extra perimeter firewall to provide additional protection.
Protecting You from Internal Threats
Cybersecurity isn’t just about defending against outside threats. In many cases, the biggest risks come from inside your network. Unauthorised devices or peripherals can slip in unnoticed, creating weak points and exposing sensitive data.
Keba provides simple, effective tools that work quietly in the background to safeguard your business from these internal dangers. With Keba, you can have peace of mind and focus fully on what you do best.

Patch Management
All operating systems and software regularly issue updates to address bugs, glitches, and security vulnerabilities. Software developers and hardware manufacturers understand that cyber criminals constantly seek out weaknesses to exploit. However, depending on your PC settings, these updates may not install right away. If updates are not applied automatically, your PCs could stay exposed to risks. Sometimes, updates are also rolled out in phases, meaning not all devices receive them simultaneously.
Patch Management Software scans your PC, routers, and firewalls for required updates to the operating system, software, and hardware. It then automatically downloads and applies the necessary updates on your behalf.
Cyber Security Training in Wellingborough
We can provide all the software required, but without cyber-aware employees, it might not be enough. We assist your team in understanding the risks of poor cyber security and deliver up-to-date training on identifying cyber threats. Improving knowledge and vigilance around detecting and stopping cyber attacks will help reduce your risk.
We can also refer you to companies that can help you to achieve the Government’s Cyber Essentials Accreditation, which gives your customers the peace of mind that their data held by you is safe and secure.

Keba Computers – we put the IT in Quality.
A very big thank you for the excellent service you provided with regard to my laptop. I asked for your assistance initially to set up a simple back up system which you did with great efficiency and very little interruption to my working day – both of which are very important to me. You quickly grasped what I needed and then just got on with it. Then I needed your urgent assistance when there was an accident with my laptop screen which cracked. You arranged for the replacement screen, took my laptop in and had it returned to me within 2 days – an extremely fast service. Not only were you fast and efficient as always you offered an extremely personal service with delivery back to my office. You even followed up a few days later to ensure that all was working well with said laptop. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending you to my clients to offer support within their IT and thank you again for a wonderfully professional service. With regards Yours sincerely - Kate Taylor Huntingdale Consultancy
