Cyber security that’s built on trust, not fear

Securious was founded to make security and compliance more accessible. From the start, we’ve focused on giving people confidence in what they’re doing and clarity on what matters.

We believe that working with a cyber security partner shouldn’t feel intimidating, overly technical, or impossible to understand. So we do things differently.

Our story

After leaving the RAF, Securious Co-Founder and CEO Pete Woodward moved into cyber security as a contractor. The work was there - but not locally. Meanwhile, businesses in the South West lacked the support they needed.

Securious was created to close that gap: connecting organisations with experienced, highly qualified staff that are focused on building our clients’ understanding of - and confidence in - their cyber security.

Since then, we’ve grown from our regional roots to support clients across the UK and beyond, helping them navigate PCI DSS, ISO 27001, and complex audits with practical, straightforward advice.

What it’s like working with Securious

We’ve seen how security can be sold in a way that creates dependence. That’s not how we work. Our job is to make sure you feel informed, supported and in control - not overwhelmed or locked in. We believe in:

  • Doing the right thing
  • Helping people grow
  • Fair and transparent pricing
  • Straightforward advice
  • Support at every step
  • Tailored solutions
  • Clear timelines and no surprises
  • Ongoing help, if you need it

We want you to feel more confident after working with us - not more confused.
