Cyber Security for Estate Agencies
Security built for client data protection, transaction security, and AML compliance
Independent, Bromborough-based, Microsoft Partner. You deal with Eric, and the person who scopes the work is the person who does it.
Six questions, about two minutes. You get a written fix list in the order worth closing things, and it is yours to keep whether we ever speak or not. We answer within 2 working hours.
Conveyancing fraud costs UK buyers millions annually. Client databases contain everything criminals need for identity theft. One compromised email can redirect a house deposit.
Security that understands estate agents: We protect estate agencies across the North West and the UK and the UK. Our team knows AML regulations, GDPR, and Property Ombudsman requirements, and builds security around the software you actually use: Alto, Reapit, Dezrez.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you protect against conveyancing fraud?
Multiple layers: email security catches spoofed solicitor addresses, verification processes for any bank detail changes, and staff training that recognises social engineering. We help estate agencies close exactly these gaps: a verified callback before any change of bank details, MFA on every mailbox, and alerts on mailbox forwarding rules.
What happens if we get hit by ransomware?
Our EDR detects ransomware in seconds and isolates affected systems. Clean backups mean we restore your data without paying ransom. A tested restore is what decides how long that takes, which is why we test yours every quarter rather than assuming it works. Your clients' data stays protected.
Will security slow down Alto/Reapit?
No. Our protection is designed for property software. We whitelist legitimate applications, optimise scanning schedules, and ensure security doesn't impact the tools you rely on daily.
How does this help with AML compliance?
Our security controls support AML requirements for data protection. We provide audit trails, secure document handling, and evidence that client information is appropriately protected.
Can you secure our branch network?
Absolutely. We provide consistent protection across all branches with centralised management. Each location gets enterprise security without enterprise complexity.
What about protecting viewing schedules and keys?
We secure digital key systems, protect viewing schedules from competitors, and ensure sensitive property information stays confidential. Security extends beyond just computers.
