Delivering IT Support & Solutions that work

When we talk to architects, engineers, and construction firms about cybersecurity, one theme comes up again and again: “We think we’re covered… but we’re not 100% sure.”

That’s where Microsoft Secure Score comes in. It’s a built-in tool within Microsoft 365 that helps you measure, understand, and improve your organisation’s security posture. Think of it as a credit score for cybersecurity: giving you visibility of what’s working, and what’s leaving you exposed.

For most businesses in the built environment, whether you're in architecture, engineering, construction, or property, IT is often seen as a sunk cost. Servers, software licences, support contracts... it all feels like money out, with little to show beyond "keeping things running."

But that view is outdated. In reality, smart IT investment can boost your profitability, improve project delivery, and even unlock new revenue streams. The key? Stop thinking of IT as just infrastructure. Start treating it as a strategic asset.

For many UK SMEs, cybersecurity still feels like a technical issue—one to be handled by firewalls, antivirus software, and IT providers. But one of the biggest risks to your business doesn’t sit on a server. It sits at a desk. It's your people.

No matter how much you invest in technology, a single human mistake, like clicking on a malicious link or using a weak password, can undo it all. In cybersecurity, people are often the weakest link.
