No names, no logos

Why we keep our clients anonymous

This is mainly for their protection, not ours. A logo wall tells attackers exactly who to research and which supplier to impersonate. The more detail published about a business's IT, the easier that job becomes.

So we publish the shape of the work, not the name behind it. If a client wants to be named, that is their call, not our marketing decision.

  1. Spear phishing starts with research

    A name, a sector and a hint at the systems in use is enough to write a convincing email to the right person in a finance team.

  2. Knowing the IT provider is leverage

    If someone knows we support you, they can pretend to be us: a support call, a password reset, an urgent request from a name your staff recognise.

  3. You still get what matters

    Sector, rough size, the problem and what changed. Enough to recognise your own business, without handing anyone a target.
