The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has significantly changed day-to-day life for most of the global workforce, impacting how we conduct business and communicate with one another. A range of cyber-related threats has significantly grown alongside this, causing concern for Chief Technology Officers and IT Directors while accelerating the need for cloud-based security solutions.
With a spike in home working and utilisation of home networking like never before, we continue to leverage technology to adapt to remote working. But with so many now working on unsecured home or public networks, it is clear the increase in use is amplifying the global cyber-crime threat.
Here at Bloom, we are well-positioned to support and navigate you through your cyber security concerns and project requirements. We have an extensive range of partners with key credentials and accreditations who can support you during these times of vulnerability, offering certified cyber security consultancy for both risk assessment and risk management as well as penetration testing and accredited cyber security training to aid with upskilling your team.
Our outcomes-based model allows us to deliver a fully managed end-to-end service, delivering efficiency and cost savings for your organisation. From initial diagnostic work through to the implementation of new technology and deployment of social workers, our category experts work with you to understand the support you require before developing a gold-standard specification that draws upon our successful track record across the sector.
With an outcomes-based project you only ever pay for what is delivered. When budgets are tight, managing outcomes is essential to ensuring quality and care is not compromised whilst achieving the maximum possible value for money in every pound spent throughout your project.
