Your business could be next.

Christmas isn't just busy for you - it's prime time for cyber criminals. UK SMEs see a 30% spike in attacks during December, and the reasons are exactly what you'd expect:

→ Offices running on skeleton staff
→ IT teams on holiday or stretched thin
→ Work laptops scattered across home networks
→ Everyone distracted, rushing, clicking without thinking

One convincing email. One finance team member working from home. One compromised device.

That's all it takes to lose your Q4 sales data, shatter customer trust, and spend Q1 in recovery mode instead of growth.

The good news? This isn't inevitable. Automated protection doesn't take holidays.

UK cyber insurance claims are up 230% this year – and SMEs are taking the hardest hits. Why? Because 80-90% of breaches still come down to the basics: one missed patch, a weak password, or no team training.

Sentinel gives you the visibility to spot those gaps on day one, so you can train, patch, and protect without the panic.

Attackers are shifting ransomware fire to UK SMEs in 2025. As big companies stop paying, they're hitting smaller businesses more often – with demands most can't ignore.

Most SME payouts fall under £50K... but add the 19 days of average downtime, and it's devastating.

One unpatched switch or forgotten device is often the weak link.

Sentinel gives you automatic visibility to spot these risks early, so you can act before the demand hits.
