Why Net-Defence?
“We have been a customer of Net-Defence for many years and approached them when we looked to change out old on-premise telephone system. They provided the best proposal out of 4 competing bids, both cost and implementation in a short timeframe. They have been very supportive all the way through the process and have delivered a great product.”

“White Digital operates in a very busy marketplace and we're always looking for ways to show we are a well-organised business. We saw ISO 27001 as a benchmark to measure ourselves against and a badge to show our clients we can deliver long term projects effectively and efficiently. We also get asked to tender for work and ISO accreditation is sometimes a pre-requisite. Net Defence were the standout of 3 agencies we had come in to talk us through how they could help us achieve the accreditation. They haven't disappointed and have made the process as painless as possible. Thank you to the whole team for their help”
