Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work with businesses based in Letterkenny?
Yes. We work with businesses across Letterkenny and the wider Donegal region. Our engagements are primarily delivered remotely, which means you get the same senior expertise as a Dublin-based firm — without the travel premium. Where on-site work is required, Letterkenny is our home territory and we can be there the same day.
What size of business do you typically work with in Letterkenny?
Most of our Letterkenny clients are SMEs — typically between 10 and 250 employees. We work across a wide range of sectors including healthcare, professional services, retail, hospitality, and technology. We also work with larger organisations in the Letterkenny business parks.
Is NIS2 relevant to Letterkenny businesses?
NIS2 applies to organisations in specific sectors — energy, transport, healthcare, digital infrastructure, food production, and others — that meet certain size thresholds. Many Letterkenny businesses, particularly in healthcare and professional services, may be in scope. Use our free NIS2 Scope Assessment to find out in under five minutes.
What is a vCISO and does my Letterkenny business need one?
A virtual CISO (vCISO) is a part-time, outsourced Chief Information Security Officer. Most SMEs cannot justify a full-time CISO, but they still need senior security leadership — for board reporting, risk management, compliance, and incident response. A vCISO gives you that expertise at a fraction of the cost.
How quickly can you respond to a cyber incident in Letterkenny?
We can begin remote incident response within hours of being engaged. For most cyber incidents — ransomware, BEC fraud, data breaches — remote response is sufficient for the initial investigation and containment phase. For Letterkenny businesses, we can be on-site the same day if required.
What does cybersecurity typically cost for a Letterkenny SME?
Costs vary depending on the scope of work. A one-off cyber risk assessment for a small business typically starts from €2,500. A retained vCISO engagement starts from €1,500 per month. We always provide a clear, fixed-price proposal before any engagement begins.
