The problem

Most SME cyber problems are simple — until they become expensive.

Weak account security. Out-of-date devices. Suspicious emails. No clear view of what's happening. No real plan for when something goes wrong. These are the issues that quietly leave smaller businesses exposed. Crywex helps you reduce risk, understand what matters, and respond with confidence.

  • No visibility

    You can't easily see what's happening across your devices, accounts, and cloud apps.

  • Too much jargon

    Security advice often feels written for enterprise IT teams, not SME decision-makers.

  • Limited time

    Your team is focused on running the business, not reading through technical alerts.

  • Client pressure

    Customers, insurers, and suppliers increasingly ask for evidence of security controls.

  • No response plan

    If something happens, the first few hours can feel confusing and rushed.

What we do

What Crywex does for your business

We help UK SMEs strengthen the basics, keep an eye on what matters, and act faster when something looks wrong.

  • Baseline security

    Find and fix weak points across devices, accounts, updates, backups, and access.

  • Managed monitoring

    Bring your security visibility together across devices, servers, and key cloud apps.

  • Risk reporting

    Clear monthly reports written for business decisions, not just technical teams.

  • Incident support

    Know what to do, who to call, and how to record the first response.

  • Cyber Essentials readiness

    Prepare for the recognised UK baseline controls with practical, prioritised fixes.

How it works

A straightforward path to stronger security

Three simple steps — from a first plain-English review to steady, ongoing support.

  1. 01

    Assess

    We review your current setup, risks, priorities, and the obvious gaps — then explain what we find in plain English.

  2. 02

    Deploy

    We set up monitoring, reporting, and practical controls around the areas that matter first.

  3. 03

    Support

    We watch, explain, prioritise, and help you stay ahead of avoidable issues.
