Managed Detection & Response

Managed Email Security

Email is still the number-one way attackers get in. We harden your email platform, enforce DMARC, triage reported phishing and pull malicious messages out of inboxes fast.

Always-on monitoring LIVE

  • SPF, DKIM & DMARC enforcement
  • Reported-phish triage
  • BEC and impersonation detection
  • Rapid mailbox remediation

Overview

Business email compromise and invoice fraud are among the most costly cyber crimes reported by UK businesses. We tune Microsoft 365 and third-party email protection, take DMARC to enforcement in line with NCSC email security guidance, and pull malicious messages from mailboxes when they slip through.

Phishing and business email compromise (BEC) remain the most common starting points for breaches and financial fraud. Attackers impersonate executives, suppliers and your own domain to steal credentials or redirect payments.

Our Managed Email Security service hardens your Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace configuration, moves your domains to an enforced DMARC policy without breaking legitimate mail, and operates detection and response for email threats — including triaging messages your users report and removing malicious emails from every mailbox they reached.

It works hand-in-hand with our Security Awareness Training and Phishing Simulation services to strengthen the human layer.

How our managed services work for UK organisations

  • Cover through UK nights, weekends and bank holidays, when in-house teams are offline
  • Escalations go to your named UK contacts by phone, email or Microsoft Teams, following agreed severities
  • Monthly service reviews scheduled within UK business hours, with evidence packs for ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials and the NHS DSPT
  • Data processing agreement covering transfers from the UK, using the IDTA or UK Addendum where personal data is involved

Frequently asked questions

Will DMARC enforcement block our legitimate emails?

Not if done in stages. We first monitor to identify every legitimate sender, fix their authentication, and only then enforce.

Do you support Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace?

Yes, both platforms are supported.

How fast can you remove a phishing email from all inboxes?

Once confirmed, malicious messages can typically be purged across the organisation within minutes using platform tooling.

Can you support UK organisations from India?

Yes. All services are delivered remotely by our team in India. India is 4.5 hours ahead of UK time during British Summer Time and 5.5 hours ahead in winter, so our working day overlaps with yours every morning and afternoon. Testing windows and escalation contacts are agreed around your UK schedule, and 24/7 services run around the clock.

Where is our data processed?

Engagement data is handled by our team in India under NDA, with encrypted storage, least-privilege access and secure deletion at the end of the agreed retention period. We can sign a data processing agreement using the UK International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA) or the UK Addendum to the EU standard contractual clauses where personal data is involved.
