Protecting Deeside Businesses in a Digital World
Deeside hosts the UK’s highest concentration of manufacturing jobs, with many local SMEs feeding tier-one customers such as Airbus, Toyota and Tata Steel. That makes them a high-value target – attackers target smaller suppliers as a way into bigger customers, and tier-one manufacturers now routinely demand evidence of cyber controls before placing orders. Blowfish Technology provides fully managed cyber security to Deeside businesses – protecting against ransomware, phishing and data breaches.
Ransomware on Industrial Networks
ERP systems, MES platforms and shop-floor controllers are prime ransomware targets, with downtime cascading through supply chains.
Supply Chain Phishing
Fake PO and invoice emails, tuned to look exactly like legitimate tier-one customer correspondence.
Account Takeover
Stolen credentials accessing Microsoft 365, EDI connections and customer portals.
Business Email Compromise
Attackers impersonating your directors or suppliers to redirect payments.
Supplier Compliance Requirements
Aerospace and automotive primes demand Cyber Essentials or equivalent before placing orders.
