The Isle of Man is home to four datacentres, each with resilient cooling, power, and security systems. Typical services include colocation, cloud, IP transit and managed hosting. The Island benefits from several fibre links connecting the Isle of Man to the UK and Ireland for onward connectivity.
Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR) is a solution focused on stopping attacks that start with, or pivot through, identity – think compromised credentials, risky sign-ins, privilege escalation, and weaknesses in Microsoft Entra ID. ITDR combines:
In this article, we explore how much it will cost to buy a server in the UK in 2026.

Servers support the IT operations of your business; they store files, run your applications, and form
Small and medium-sized businesses are operating in a very different environment to even five years ago. Faster connectivity, cloud adoption, remote working, and regulatory pressure have reshaped how businesses operate – and where risk now sits. This is not speculation. Microsoft’s Digital Defence Report highlights that smaller organisations are increasingly targeted precisely because they rely
As more businesses look to Azure for scalability and flexibility, there’s a persistent myth that “Azure is too expensive” – especially compared to traditional datacentres. But with the right setup, Azure can offer tremendous value for money, particularly for small businesses.
Email security is critical for financial service providers, especially Corporate Service Providers (CSPs), who handle sensitive client data and regulatory communications. One of the most effective ways to protect email domains from spoofing, phishing, and impersonation attacks is by implementing DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance). However, our recent analysis of CSPs in the
Traditionally, cities and towns have relied on fixed air quality monitoring stations to measure pollution levels in specific areas. However, IoT technology offers a more cost-effective, scalable, and flexible approach, vastly improving air quality monitoring over traditional fixed solutions.
Securing your business Wi-Fi network is crucial to protect sensitive data, prevent unauthorised access, and stay compliant with modern cybersecurity standards. Many organisations still rely on outdated Wi-Fi security protocols that leave them vulnerable to cyber threats. Upgrading to WPA3-Enterprise provides stronger encryption, individual user authentication, and better protection against attacks, making it the recommended
As the end of Windows 10 looms, businesses are re-evaluating their hardware and endpoint strategies. Enter Windows 365 Link, Microsoft’s compact and cost-effective device that bridges the gap between traditional desktops and the flexibility of the cloud. We think it’s an absolute game-changer, especially for organisations in the UK and Isle of Man looking for
When it comes to password policies, many organisations still cling to the age-old advice of “change it often and make it complex.” But times have changed. The latest security guidelines (from the likes of Microsoft, NIST, and the National Cyber Security Centre) encourage a shift in approach: long, word-based passwords and multi-factor authentication (MFA) –
As AI and automation continue to reshape industries globally, we decided to take a closer look at job trends on the Isle of Man to identify potential challenges and opportunities. Using data from the Isle of Man Job Centre, we analysed how AI might affect the local workforce. While there are limitations to this study
While traditional antivirus solutions have long been a cornerstone of protection for businesses of all sizes, the rapidly evolving threat landscape requires more advanced and comprehensive security measures. Enter modern endpoint protection solutions, such as EDR, XDR, an MDR, designed to address the complex challenges that today’s small businesses face.
