The controls that reduce real risk — and the evidence that proves it. Continuous monitoring and response, mapped to the SFC's cybersecurity expectations for licensed firms.
Cybersecurity for a small firm isn't about buying the most tools — it's about having someone whose job is to run the right controls, watch them, and prove they're working. Komstadt delivers continuous monitoring and response mapped to the SFC's cybersecurity expectations, so you reduce real risk and hold the evidence an inspection or an investor will ask for.
We combine an ISO-certified security operations centre, endpoint and email protection, identity controls and human awareness training into one managed service. The goal isn't a wall of dashboards — it's fewer incidents, faster response when something does happen, and documentation you can stand behind.
An ISO-certified security operations centre monitors your environment 24/7, combining automated detection with human analysts who investigate and respond. Threats are contained in minutes, not discovered weeks later — the difference between an incident and a crisis.
Next-generation EDR agents run across Windows, Mac and mobile, spotting malicious behaviour that traditional antivirus misses. Compromised devices are automatically isolated from the network before an attacker can spread.
Email is how most attacks arrive. We put anti-phishing, business-email-compromise protection and encryption in front of Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, and enforce SPF, DKIM and DMARC so your domain can't be spoofed.
Managed firewalls, IPS/IDS and DNS filtering protect the perimeter, while MFA, conditional access and zero-trust controls protect identity — the new perimeter. Access is granted least-privilege and reviewed regularly.
Continuous scanning finds and prioritises the weaknesses attackers look for, so they're fixed on a schedule rather than discovered in a breach. We also watch dark-web and breach databases for your credentials appearing where they shouldn't.
Your staff are the first line of defence, so we keep them sharp with regular simulated phishing and targeted awareness training. People who can spot a fake email stop most attacks before any tool has to.
