Built on CCL’s extensive pedigree in security, digital forensics and cyber investigation, CCL Protect delivers essential defences as a managed, scalable service. It offers a new way for organisations to strengthen their cyber posture with confidence: a single, flexible model that brings together key testing, proactive risk management, training and monitoring.

The core subscription includes:

• Phishing assessments to test staff resilience
• Vulnerability scanning with expert interpretation
• Cyber awareness training to embed secure behaviours
• Dark web monitoring to detect compromised credentials
• Quarterly progress reviews to track improvements and adapt strategy

Additional services, including penetration testing, incident investigation, insider threat detection, and certification support, can be added as needed, ensuring protection that grows in step with each client’s business.

Commenting on the launch, Noel McMenamin (above), CCL’s CEO, said: “CCL Protect is about making real cyber resilience accessible. We’ve taken the enterprise-grade capability we deliver to major clients – the skills, the pedigree, and the people – and packaged it for ambitious businesses who need protection they can trust, but without the overheads of an internal team. At a time when over 50% of SMEs are being routinely targeted by attackers, this is expert-led security, made simple, affordable and available right now.”

CCL Protect also offers access to an emergency incident response team, giving subscribers peace of mind that specialist help is on hand when it matters most.

The new offering is aimed at organisations that are scaling fast, working in regulated sectors, or just ready to take their security up a level, going beyond basic tools or generalist IT teams. Starter pricing is estimated at just 10% of the total cost of having one cyber specialist in-house providing equivalent cover.
