Security review
Websites, hosting and cloud accounts checked for the most common weaknesses.
Cyber security
Practical cyber security for small businesses
Most security problems come from the basics: missing updates, weak access control, exposed logins and untested backups. SMART5 reviews and fixes those basics across your websites, cloud accounts and systems, and builds security into the way they are run.
What is included
Cyber security: what we do
Firewall protection
A web application firewall in front of your sites to block common attacks.
Access control
Least-privilege access, multi-factor sign-in and no public server logins.
Secrets handled safely
Passwords and keys moved out of code and into secure storage.
Patching
A routine for applying updates, so known holes are closed quickly.
Backups and continuity
Backups tested, and a plan for getting back up and running.

Cyber security: questions and answers
Is cyber security only for large companies?
No. Small businesses are frequent targets because their defences are often weaker. Getting the basics right blocks most common attacks.
What does SMART5 do on its own systems?
Every site sits behind a firewall, HTTPS is used everywhere, secrets are never stored in code, access is least-privilege and there are no public server logins.
Can you help after a website has been hacked?
Yes. We clean up or restore the site, close the hole that let the attacker in, and put protection in place.
