Client Success Story

A mid-sized engineering firm in Ireland struggled with outdated security measures, inconsistent updates, and no multi-factor authentication.

We assessed their security using Microsoft Secure Score and recommended enabling MFA, automating updates, revamping policies, and training staff on phishing. These actions boosted their Secure Score from 450 to 800, significantly enhancing security and reducing cyber threat risks.

Thanks to Hybrid Technology Partners, we now have peace of mind knowing our security is solid and our data is well-protected.
