Cyber security is a major concern for businesses and individuals. It’s not just about keeping your data safe, it’s also about protecting the information of your customers. Staying cyber-safe requires a change in the way that companies look at data security. New threats are emerging all the time and they can happen to anyone.
Companies need to be more proactive in their approach to cyber security and ensure that they have the right tools to protect themselves against these new threats.

There is no obligation to work with us post-scan – so why not reach out and “help us to help you!”
Frequently Asked Questions
A project milestone plays an invaluable role in project planning and development as they give all team members a clear indication of how a project is developing.
An effective software project milestone should serve as a marker-point within the project’s life-cycle and growth. When milestones are met, it is clear for everyone on the team that things are progressing as they should.
If a milestone is not met, it gives management and stakeholders a clear understanding of where the challenges lie in a project and how to overcome them.
Project management milestones help keep work on-track, as they highlight key dates and events in which project development must match expectations. Some project management milestone examples could include:
â– Crucial management or stakeholders meetings
â– Key deliverable dates
â– Beginning and endpoints for each phase of a project
â– Stakeholder approval dates
While software development may ‘survive’ without milestones, it is always advised to keep everyone focused on the same goals.
Without clearly defined milestones to summarise the development of a project, it runs the risk of scope-creep, resulting in setbacks, delays, and even failure.
The number of milestones that any one project have should largely depend on size and project scope.
Smaller-scale projects often have fewer milestones than larger, more complex ones.
When working out milestones, you shouldn’t think in terms of numbers but rather in project progress and development. The most effective and motivating milestones are those which fit naturally within the project’s life-cycle.
