Managed Cyber Security Solution
Monitor, Detect, Respond and Adapt to Cyber Attacks on your Business.
In recent years IT has changed the way that we live and work. We expect data, email and the tools we need to do our jobs to be available wherever we are and on any device. Whilst this has been a very positive step it presents a challenge to businesses in how they protect their data and systems from cyber attacks. In today’s age of hyper-connectivity, increasing data-protection legislation, and growing incidents of cyber-attacks; security has never been so critical for businesses large or small. The majority of businesses only have a minority of their technology managed from a security perspective but we can help change that.
Soteria (also known as the Greek Goddess of Protection) is Metaphor IT’s Managed Security Service, it provides businesses like yours with expert cyber security defence systems and specialist staff to help mitigate against the threat of internal and external cyber attacks and help meet compliance and legislative standards.

Our Security Operations Centre can monitor your entire estate, providing continuous analysis, trending and identification of potential threats. We can work alongside internal IT teams to provide a critical and proactive line of defence against both insider and external threats.
Soteria Lite – Enterprise Security without the Costs
Metaphor IT already provide security solutions for several FTSE 100 businesses but we have found a gap in the market for a cost effective security solution for SME and Mid-Market businesses. With the General Data Protection Regulation coming into force, many businesses will find themselves unprepared for the changes and could face heavy fines. We are providing one complete solution that will mitigate against the risk of a data breach to not only protect the business and the data it holds but also ensure compliance against current and new regulations.
Metaphor IT understands that growing businesses have to balance risk against the cost of meeting their required standards and protecting their IT standards. Unlike big banks who can invest heavily in IT security, SME’s are not able to make the same investments and that is why we have launched Soteria Lite. It allows us to help you protect your business and meet your legal data protection obligations but at an affordable monthly cost.
