One firm owns your IT, and shows its working
Everything written down, and yours to keep
Dacros is managed IT support and cyber security for UK businesses. A typical engagement starts the same way: a free review that writes down what you have, what is exposed, and what is worth doing first. You keep the document either way.
- Scope
- Business IT and cyber security. Nothing else.
- Structure
- One accountable partner, one monthly plan.

What we actually run
Six things, and no more than six. A business typically ends up with a separate supplier for each, a person who is good with computers, and nobody owning security. This is the same list under one roof, and the first two are where a typical engagement begins.

What we are actually defending against
Before anything elaborate, a business needs the handful of controls that close off the ways money and data are actually lost. Here is the pairing, in plain English.
Most businesses are not attacked because they are interesting. They are attacked because they are reachable.
Start with a written picture of what you actually have
A typical engagement starts here. We go through your systems, accounts, devices and exposure, and hand you a short, prioritised, plain-English document: what you have, what is at risk, and what is worth doing first.
Remote across the UK, and on site where the work needs someone in the building. There is no charge, no obligation, and the document is yours whether you go on to work with us or not.

A young firm, and open about it
Dacros is deliberately narrow: IT and cyber security for UK businesses, run as a practice rather than a shop. We are new, and we would rather you check us than take our word for anything. Anything we do not yet hold is marked that way until the day we do.

Asked most often
How much does it cost?
Every business is different, so we price per business rather than off a rigid menu. After your free review you'll get a clear, fixed monthly plan: you'll know exactly what you pay and what's included before you commit to anything.
Do you work with businesses across the UK?
Yes. Dacros works with businesses anywhere in the UK. Most of the work is done remotely, over secure tools on our own EU infrastructure, and on-site visits are arranged whenever a job needs someone in the building. We are based in Leeds.
We already have someone who does our IT. Do you replace them?
Not unless you want us to. If your IT is a helpful person who fixes what breaks but keeps everything in their head, Dacros can take it over properly: proactive monitoring, security by default, and everything written down, with one accountable point of contact. If you have an IT person or team you rely on, we work alongside them instead, taking the security controls, the monitoring, Cyber Essentials and the projects they do not have time for, documented so they can see and own all of it. The free review is where we agree which parts we take on.
Can you help us get Cyber Essentials certified?
Yes. We'll get you ready for Cyber Essentials (and Cyber Essentials Plus), which is increasingly required to win B2B and public-sector contracts and to keep your cyber insurance valid.
Where does our data actually live?
We are UK and EU-first by default: the tools we run the practice on, and the hosting we recommend, sit in the UK or the EU unless there is a clear reason otherwise, and we will say so when a supplier does not. If you are working out your own position on this, the data protection hub in the guides walks through it.
