Connectivity, cyber security and IT Service provider IFB, has partnered with leading Cloud, IT, and network services provider EXPO.e – to provide large scale and comprehensive Cyber Security Operations Centre services (CSOC) for its current and future customers.

IFB CEO Graeme Gordon said: “We are delighted to extend our working relationship and partnership with EXPO.e to now include the critical cyber security operations space. This means that alongside IFB’s own Security services, we can now offer the depth, breadth and scale of expertise to accommodate any scale of security requirement.”

Graeme continued “A massive 92% of UK businesses reported a cyber security breach of some type in the last 12 months this means our partnership comes at a key time for organisations of any size. Business best practice, when it comes to cyber security, is driving a real demand from businesses and organisations to have a comprehensive security service that monitors, manages and outpaces security threats 24/7. We have recognised that the only real way of doing this with confidence is working with a partner like EXPO.e, who alongside the team at IFB, are delivering these services in quality and scale.”

The cyber security market has grown to more than £10.5 billion in the UK alone in 2023 and by working together, IFB and EXPO.e are positioning themselves to capture our share of this market moving forward. This will come from our ability to design, deploy, manage and support real time and full-time security services for businesses, including core and complementary skills and resources, management and monitoring covering everything from training and education, firewall and software management through to completely outsourcing your security needs.

Phil French, Channel Account Director at EXPO.e said “We already have a great relationship with IFB and understand the importance of delivering best in class cyber security services for our customers. EXPO.e’s proven cyber security capabilities, from technical expertise from early design through to incident response and recovery, bring a new dimension and scale to IFB’s offering to their customers, and we look forward to working with them in this key business critical area.

Together IFB and EXPO.e will be running events in Aberdeen and the wider Scottish market to provide businesses the opportunity to understand more about this partnership and the positive impact it will have for their cyber security position.
