Shouldn't you?
Cyber insurance renewals increasingly arrive with an external audit attached — a report full of terms nobody explained. Our scan runs the same kind of external checks and tells you what each one means in plain English.
- Email authentication — SPF, DKIM and DMARC
- Certificate health and encryption strength
- Website security headers and version disclosure

Still here.
Hardy IT was founded in 2017 by Doug Hardy, on the back of nearly thirty years in IT and electronics. We're small enough that you'll speak to the person who knows your network, and established enough that we've seen your problem before.
Observe, analyse, react. We keep evaluating what our clients actually need rather than selling them what's convenient.
