About Be Secure Cyber

Be Secure Cyber is a UK cyber security consultancy based in Glasgow, providing advisory, vCISO, assurance and certification support.

Based in Glasgow, Be Secure Cyber provides clear, practical cyber security advice for organisations that need to make sense of risk, improve controls and respond confidently to customer, supplier and certification requirements.

Our work covers cyber security consultancy, vCISO support, Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus guidance, IASME Cyber Assurance support, vulnerability assessment, cloud security reviews and infrastructure security advice.

We often work with organisations that have reached a point where informal security management is no longer enough. A customer may be asking for assurance. A tender may require certification. A leadership team may need better visibility of risk. A technical team may need an independent view of priorities.

As an NCSC assured service provider and IASME licensed Certification Body, we support recognised cyber security schemes and hold relevant certifications ourselves. Certification matters, but we do not treat the certificate as the end of the work. Where it helps, we turn certification findings into a wider improvement plan.

Be Secure Cyber is led by John McDaid. His background covers managed service providers and organisations in education, healthcare and defence — sectors where security requirements, assurance pressures and risk appetite vary considerably.

Our style is direct and measured. We explain risk in plain English, focus on the controls that matter, and recommend improvements that fit your organisation’s size, budget and operating model.
