Security testing for your clients

Your clients increasingly ask for penetration tests and Cyber Essentials — for tenders, insurers and their own customers. Building that capability in-house is expensive and hard to keep independent. We deliver it for you: CREST-accredited testing and IASME certification, presented under your brand or introduced as your specialist partner.

Our non-compete, in writing

The reason MSPs hesitate to bring in a security partner is obvious: they don't want that partner poaching the account. So we put it in writing. We test and certify; we do not sell your clients managed services, monitoring, or IT support, and we don't approach them independently. You own the relationship — we're the specialist you bring in.

Why MSPs are under the spotlight too

You administer clients' networks, identities, backups and devices, which raises standards across many businesses — but it also concentrates risk, and government has noticed. The Cyber Security and Resilience Bill puts more weight on managed and digital-service providers. Holding Cyber Essentials Plus yourself is fast becoming table stakes for winning and keeping clients, and we can certify your own MSP as readily as your clients.

How the partnership works

Straightforward: you introduce the requirement, we scope honestly with you (or directly with the client, your call), deliver the test or certification, and hand you a clean, board-ready report you can pass on. No bench of juniors, no account managers — a senior tester who makes you look good in front of your client.

Common questions

Will you try to take our clients?

No — and we'll sign it. Our non-compete says we deliver testing and certification only; we don't sell your clients managed services, monitoring or IT support, and we don't approach them independently. You keep the relationship.

Can the work be white-labelled?

Yes. We can deliver under your brand or as your named specialist partner, whichever you prefer. Reports can be presented so your client sees you bringing in the right expert.

Do MSPs need Cyber Essentials Plus themselves?

Increasingly, yes. You hold privileged access to many client environments, which concentrates risk, and clients and their insurers now ask whether their MSP is certified. CE Plus is becoming a competitive necessity.

How do we price it to our clients?

However you like — we quote you a clear fixed price and you set your own margin, or we bill the client directly and pay a referral fee. Both are fine; we agree it up front.
