Secure, compliant IT
for professional services firms.
Law firms, accountancies, consultancies, and financial services businesses where client confidentiality, regulatory compliance, and secure remote access are fundamental to how you operate.
IT that reflects the obligations of professional practice.
Professional services firms hold sensitive client information, operate under regulatory frameworks such as SRA, FCA, and ICAEW, and face reputational consequences from a data breach that dwarf the technical costs. Your IT must reflect those obligations.
We build and manage IT environments for professional services firms with client data isolation, encrypted communications, and compliance controls designed in from the start. Not treated as an afterthought when a client or regulator asks.
Discuss Your RequirementsWhat professional services firms face.
Client confidentiality, regulatory compliance, and the mobility demands of fee-earning staff create an IT environment with very little tolerance for failure.
Client data confidentiality
Client information carries privilege and confidentiality obligations that go beyond standard data protection. A breach does not just attract regulatory penalty: it destroys trust built over years.
Regulatory compliance
SRA, FCA, ICAEW, and other regulators impose specific requirements on how client data is handled, how systems are accessed, and how incidents are reported. IT must evidence compliance.
Secure mobility for fee earners
Fee earners work from courts, client sites, and home. They need secure access to case files, communications, and billing systems from any device, without creating data exposure.
IT built around professional obligations.
Security, compliance, and mobility designed for the way professional services firms actually work.
Encrypted communications and data
End-to-end encryption for email, file transfer, and client communications. Data classification policies and DLP controls that reflect the sensitivity of what you handle.
Regulatory compliance support
IT controls and documentation aligned to SRA, FCA, ICAEW, and GDPR requirements. We prepare the technical evidence your regulators expect to see.
Secure remote access
Zero Trust Network Access and conditional access policies that give fee earners secure access to client systems from anywhere, on managed or BYOD devices.
Document management and collaboration
Microsoft 365 configured for professional services: SharePoint, Teams, and OneDrive structured around matter files, client teams, and compliance requirements.
Mobile device management
Policy enforcement, encryption, and remote wipe across all firm-issued and BYOD devices. GDPR-compliant MDM with full audit trail.
Cyber Essentials certification
Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus to satisfy client due diligence requirements, tender prerequisites, and PI insurer expectations.
Client data isolation
Matter-level access controls and data segregation so no client data is ever accessible to those without a need to know, regardless of device or location.
24/7 helpdesk for fee earners
Support available when fee earners need it: before a court appearance, during a late-night transaction, or when working from a client site.
Cyber Essentials maintained
Certification held and renewed annually. Technical controls maintained throughout the year, not just at renewal time. Evidence available on request for tenders.
