New Cybersecurity Services Launched for UK SMEs

Dolphin IT Solutions Targets UK SMEs With Full Cybersecurity Package Including Cyber Essentials

Guildford, United Kingdom – May 17, 2026 / Dolphin IT Solutions /

Dolphin IT Solutions has launched a dedicated cybersecurity service portfolio targeting UK small and medium-sized enterprises, bringing together Cyber Essentials compliance, endpoint protection, security monitoring, and cloud infrastructure security under a single managed offering. The launch addresses a measurable gap in structured cyber protection for businesses that lack in-house security teams but face the same threat landscape as larger organisations.

A Structured Response to Growing Cyber Risk Among UK SMEs

Dolphin IT Solutions has designed the new portfolio specifically around the operational realities of UK SMEs and medium-sized businesses. Rather than offering isolated tools, the company has built a layered service model that covers the full security lifecycle – from initial compliance certification through to ongoing threat monitoring and incident response support.

The service package centers on Cyber Essentials UK certification, the government-backed scheme that defines a baseline of technical controls required to defend against common cyber threats. Achieving Cyber Essentials accreditation has become increasingly relevant for UK businesses seeking public sector contracts or demonstrating due diligence to insurers and partners. Dolphin IT Solutions guides clients through the certification process and implements the necessary controls to meet compliance requirements.

Key Service Features

The full cybersecurity portfolio launched by Dolphin IT Solutions includes the following core components:

Cyber Essentials UK compliance – Assessment, remediation, and certification support aligned to the UK government framework

Endpoint protection – Deployment and management of endpoint security tools across devices within the client environment

Security monitoring and profiling – Continuous monitoring of network activity and threat profiling to identify anomalies and suspicious behaviour

HelpDesk support – Dedicated security-focused HelpDesk access for businesses requiring fast response to queries, incidents, or alerts

Azure and AWS backend security – Configuration review, access controls, and ongoing security management for cloud infrastructure hosted on Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services

This combination positions Dolphin IT Solutions as a single point of contact for cybersecurity for small businesses that need structured protection without the overhead of building an internal security function.

Compliance and Cloud Security as Core Priorities

The inclusion of Azure and AWS backend security within the package reflects the shift many UK SMEs have made toward cloud-based infrastructure. Misconfigured cloud environments remain a common source of data exposure, and Dolphin IT Solutions has built its cloud security component around hardening configurations, enforcing access policies, and reviewing permission structures across both platforms.

Security monitoring and profiling adds a continuous oversight layer, allowing threats to be identified and assessed in real time rather than discovered after damage has occurred. Combined with endpoint protection covering the devices employees use daily, the portfolio addresses both perimeter and internal risk vectors that are frequently exploited in attacks against smaller organisations.

“We built this portfolio because business cyber security protection for SMEs has too often meant purchasing a single product and assuming the job is done,” said Andy Taylor, Director of Dolphin IT Solutions. “Our new service covers at least five critical areas – Cyber Essentials compliance, endpoint security, cloud backend hardening across Azure and AWS, continuous monitoring, and direct HelpDesk support – so that clients have a complete and structured defence rather than isolated tools with gaps between them.”

HelpDesk Integration Supports Ongoing Security Management

The HelpDesk support component is designed to give businesses direct access to expertise when they need it most. For SMEs without dedicated IT security staff, having a responsive support channel connected to their broader security infrastructure allows faster decision-making during potential incidents. This access is integrated with the monitoring layer, meaning support staff are already familiar with a client’s security profile when they respond to queries.

Dolphin IT Solutions has structured the entire portfolio to be accessible to businesses that may be starting from a low baseline of cybersecurity for small businesses – requiring no significant prior investment in security infrastructure before onboarding.
