• Start investigations quicker
• Speed up case processing times
• Deliver security for confidential and public data
• Govern data in line with ISO standards
• Review, retain and delete data compliantly
• Reduce data processing burden with automation
• Scale up and scale out with predictable costs

Get the right cloud strategy with our Cloud Adoption Framework

Having a flexible approach to cloud and on-premises environments means you can deliver existing and new online services smarter and faster.  In our experience, a hybrid model is the best solution to enable you to scale and meet increased demand. Allowing you to strike the right balance between speed and scalability with cost and security. 

Our structured Cloud Adoption Framework will provide you with the right cloud strategy aligned to your goals.  We’ll identify the best infrastructure options for your data and workloads that can span across private, public, hybrid and even multi-cloud.  You can also benefit from cloud economics for your on-premises infrastructure with a pay per use consumption model. 

We’ll help you avoid cloud complexity and achieve sustainable transformation. 

Increase effective policing with a modern workplace 

UK policing has already undergone significant transformation through the National Enabling Programmes (NEP). Delivering modern workplace tools such as Microsoft 365, and the rapid adoption of Microsoft Teams driven by operational requirements. Our Modern Workplace services align to the Police NEP, and as a trusted Microsoft Gold Partner with elite Azure MSP status, we have a strong pedigree in Microsoft solutions.

We’ve delivered some of the most complex, challenging, and secure Microsoft solutions and we use this expertise to ensure you make the most of the product set to maximise your investment and improve service delivery to the frontline.

But we don’t stop there, our best practice change management and user adoption services will deliver the business change you require:

• Retrieve and share information, from anywhere 
• Work anywhere, anytime – collaboratively and securely 
• Reduce operational overheads and complexity by adopting a modern, evergreen architecture set up to support a modern police service 
• Drive adoption and develop more effective work habits through a comprehensive and inclusive change plan

Secure managed services

In a first responder organisation like the police, the impact of IT service failure can be immense. Our flexible, professional and tailored IT managed services are supported by our internal specialist vetted teams covering a broad range of technical and professional disciplines. Allowing us to shoulder the burden of the day-to-day management of your IT systems, so you can focus on crime prevention.

• Our UK Network Operation and Security Centres are underpinned by ISO standards and staff are cleared to at least NPPV3 standards
• Our internal security team monitor the environment to alert to possible cyber attacks, while our compliance team informs you of what is required to keep you within regulatory boundaries
• We have Government OFFICIAL status and are an HSCN and G-Cloud supplier 

Build your cyber resilience with zero trust endpoint/server protection

Data security and governance has never been higher up the agenda. This cyber security solution from AppGuard provides the missing piece of the operational resilience jigsaw, ensuring that if threat actors bypass all detection technology and methodologies, application vulnerabilities cannot be exploited, and the effects of malware are neutralised.

In short, it simply STOPS all malware attacks by blocking and isolating them before harm occurs. It’s a last line of defence to help keep organisations safe.

Keep your digital policing roadmap on track with flexible access to specialist skills

• For security vetted and cleared personnel 
• For individual technical specialists through to entire delivery teams
