Layered business protection
Firewall, endpoint and access controls working together instead of leaving gaps between services.
Cyber Security
Practical Cyber Security That Protects Your Business
DP-Solutions helps businesses across Somerset, Dorset and the South West protect users, devices, networks and business data with practical cyber security support that fits the wider reality of day-to-day IT. Firewall protection, endpoint security, monitoring, response planning and Microsoft 365 security are considered together, not as disconnected products.
Detection beyond basic antivirus
Monitoring, investigation and managed detection options where preventative controls alone may not be enough.
Security connected to wider IT
Microsoft 365, remote working, backup, infrastructure and user support considered as part of one practical environment.
Why cyber needs a joined-up view
Security is rarely one product sitting on its own
A business can have a firewall in place and still be exposed through users, laptops, remote access, cloud accounts, email or unsupported systems. Cyber Essentials provides a useful baseline, but good cyber security needs more than one checkbox or one vendor line item.
DP-Solutions looks at where risk actually appears in a working business environment: staff devices, internet access, Microsoft 365 accounts, email, password habits, patching, backup arrangements and the way people connect to the systems they depend on every day.
Firewall and secure-access control
Business firewall protection, safer internet access and clearer control around how people reach the systems they rely on.
Detection, response and monitoring
Practical visibility into suspicious behaviour, with MDR options and sensible action when something needs investigation.
Endpoint protection and security hygiene
Desktop, laptop and server protection supported by patching, permissions and day-to-day oversight that reduce avoidable exposure.
What we help with
Protection, detection and resilience in the right places
Cyber security is not one flat service. The priorities vary between businesses, but the common need is clear: practical controls around users, devices, networks and business data, backed by sensible response and recovery thinking.
Practical security outcomes
Security should reduce risk without getting in the way of work
The aim is not to flood a business with jargon or disconnected tools. It is to put sensible protection around the systems people rely on, spot the activity worth investigating and help the business respond without losing sight of day-to-day operations. The same controls also matter when reviewing cyber insurance.
Safer everyday working
Controls around users, devices, email and internet access that help reduce avoidable exposure in normal business activity.
Better visibility when something looks wrong
Detection and investigation options that help identify suspicious behaviour a basic preventative tool might miss.
Clearer action when attention is needed
Practical containment, remediation support and a more resilient relationship between protection, backup and wider IT support.
Relevant technology relationships
Technology kept in the right context
Cyber security support can include vendor-led capabilities where they fit the environment. WatchGuard and ESET are particularly relevant here, with Microsoft also important when Microsoft 365 accounts, access and cloud services form part of the wider security picture.
Connected services
Security works better when the wider environment is considered
Cyber security sits alongside support, cloud services, backup and infrastructure. These related DP-Solutions services often shape the same business environment and are worth reviewing together.
Cyber Security FAQ
Common questions before you get in touch
If you are reviewing cyber security for the first time or trying to improve an existing setup, these are some of the practical questions businesses often ask first.
What does business cyber security usually cover?
It commonly covers firewall and network protection, endpoint security, user access, MFA, phishing risk, secure day-to-day working and the ability to detect and respond when something suspicious happens.
Do you provide firewall support for businesses?
Yes. DP-Solutions can help businesses review and support firewall-led network protection, safer connectivity and the wider controls around internet-facing access, including WatchGuard where it suits the environment.
What is endpoint protection?
Endpoint protection focuses on the devices people use and the systems they connect to, such as desktops, laptops and servers. The goal is to reduce malware and ransomware exposure and to improve visibility when suspicious activity appears on a device, including ESET-led protection where appropriate.
What is MDR and how is it different from antivirus?
Traditional antivirus aims to block known or suspected threats. MDR adds ongoing monitoring, investigation and response support around suspicious behaviour, helping identify issues that a preventative control on its own may not fully deal with.
Can you help protect Microsoft 365 accounts and users?
Yes. Secure sign-in, MFA, sensible permissions and account hygiene all matter around Microsoft 365 and other business cloud services, and they form part of the wider cyber picture.
How does backup fit into cyber security?
Backup does not prevent attacks, so it should not be confused with cyber security itself. It matters because recovery and continuity still shape the business impact after an incident and the path back to normal working.
