Hoping your business won’t be targeted by cybercriminals isn’t a cybersecurity plan. It’s a gamble—and one that many organizations in the islands can’t afford to take. From local businesses to large enterprises, threat actors are increasingly zeroing in on gaps in protection, seeking out those businesses that are unprepared. If your business lacks a clear cybersecurity strategy, the question isn’t if you’ll be targeted, but when.
ACT is helping organizations across the islands shift from reactive to proactive cybersecurity through a suite of accessible, expert-led services tailored to real business needs. 
Rapid Health Check: Start with Clarity
Understanding where you stand is the first step in strengthening your defences. ACT’s Rapid Health Check offers a fast and affordable way to do just that. Designed for small to medium-sized businesses, this one-hour virtual audit gives you immediate insights into your cybersecurity posture. Using ACT’s proprietary audit system, the session evaluates your existing controls around privacy, IT systems, and compliance. You’ll receive a detailed report highlighting areas of risk and a practical action plan to help close the gaps.
Cyber Accelerator: Build a Strong Foundation
Need more than just a snapshot? ACT’s Cyber Accelerator gives growing businesses a hands-on path to creating a compliant, effective cybersecurity program. From risk assessments to employee training and policy development, ACT works with you to establish the frameworks needed for ongoing protection. In a short amount of time, you’ll have a clear, documented plan that can guide your security efforts for the year ahead.
Accreditation: Gain Confidence and Credibility
Whether you’re working with government entities, healthcare organizations, or simply need to demonstrate your commitment to cybersecurity, external validation goes a long way. ACT provides expert support for Cyber Essentials, IASME Cyber Assurance, and IASME Cyber Baseline Certifications. Choose the level of involvement that suits you—from a self-managed approach to full ACT-led delivery. Either way, you’ll walk away with recognized accreditation that builds trust with your clients and stakeholders.
vCISO: Leadership Without the Overhead
Not every organization needs a full-time Chief Information Security Officer, but every business needs leadership when it comes to cybersecurity. ACT’s vCISO service gives you a dedicated security expert who oversees your program, manages compliance, leads employee training, and keeps a constant eye on evolving risks. It’s a cost-effective way to bring top-tier cybersecurity expertise into your business without the commitment of a full-time hire.
ACT empowers businesses in the islands to move beyond uncertainty and build confidence in their cybersecurity readiness. Whether you’re just getting started or need to strengthen what you already have, ACT is ready to help.
