Southampton
One accountable team for Southampton's regulated firms.
Southampton is the commercial hub of the central south coast, with a base of wealth managers, accountancy practices and professional-services firms alongside its maritime and university economy. We have offices in Edinburgh and London and look after Southampton firms as one accountable team, on the ground when it helps and remote the rest of the time.
It is, in a real sense, where the modern internet was made to work. The optical fibre amplifier that lets light carry data across oceans was developed at the University of Southampton in the 1980s. Tell us where your IT and security are now, and we will tell you what good looks like.

faq
IT support in Southampton, answered plainly
We have offices in Edinburgh and London and look after firms right across Southampton and the central south coast. Day-to-day IT and security are run remotely by the same team that knows your environment, and we are on the ground in person when it helps.
Most day-to-day IT and security is run remotely. When something needs hands on a machine, we draw on a trusted network of vetted on-site engineers, our smart hands, who come to your office to set up devices, make changes and handle the physical work, alongside our team. You get someone on site when you need it, not just a phone line.
Wealth managers, accountancy practices and professional-services firms, typically of five to fifty people, across Southampton and Hampshire. The common thread is that they are regulated, hold sensitive client data, and want IT and security run as one accountable job rather than split between suppliers.

Southampton built the internet's amplifier
Light across oceans
In the 1980s, researchers at the University of Southampton developed the erbium-doped fibre amplifier, the device that boosts a beam of light so it can carry data across thousands of miles of undersea cable. Almost every byte of the internet passes through one.
