A selection of what we have built, secured, and run, framed for what it proves rather than who it was for. We are loud about outcomes and capability, and deliberately quiet about anything that would help an attacker or breach a client confidence. Sectors are described, never named.
Security reviews and remediation, Zero Trust and identity, certification, migrations to Microsoft 365 and to the cloud, and full desktop virtualisation. Different sectors, one accountable team behind all of it. Clients are described by sector, never named.
A comprehensive security review uncovered a set of critical vulnerabilities, which we remediated in full before moving the firm onto managed services so the gaps stay closed.
Centralised authorisation on Entra ID, with device lockdown, single sign on, and Conditional Access policies applied consistently across every platform.
Migration from ageing on premise servers to hosted cloud infrastructure: file server, Active Directory, and line of business apps, all reachable over secure VPN connectivity.
A seamless migration from Google Workspace to Microsoft 365, with complete data transfer and user profiles moved across, and zero disruption to operations.
A standing start taken to certification: device management, a hosted VPN, written policies, regular patching, and a clean Cyber Essentials pass.
Taking organisations from a basic Microsoft 365 setup to a fully secured environment, with Defender, Intune, and Conditional Access deployed and configured.
Full desktop virtualisation for a remote first financial services team: work from anywhere, on any device, with the whole estate managed centrally.
Different problems, one way of working. We start by understanding what actually matters, fix the real risks first, and build security and evidence in from the start rather than bolting them on. You stay in plain English the whole way, and the responsibility stops with us.
Being a security led firm, we hold ourselves to the same rule we set our clients. Every story stays on the right side of the line.
What was at stake and why it mattered, in business terms anyone can follow.
How we thought about it and what we did, without the operational detail an attacker could use.
The result, framed honestly. We do not dress up figures or claim precision we cannot stand behind.
Clients are anonymised to a sector by default, and named only with their written consent.
Bring us the system to build, the risk to close, or the migration you have been putting off. We reply within one working day, and you will speak to an engineer, not a salesperson.
Hello, I am Ainsley, the assistant here at Dead Simple Computing, and a governed AI assistant we built ourselves. Ask me anything about managed IT, cyber security, software and AI, or governance and audit. I can also put you in touch with a person.
Ainsley is an assistant and can be wrong. For anything that matters you will speak to an engineer.
