Equilibrium Security Services Case Study

Equilibrium Security Services was established in 2012 with the sole aim of protecting a company’s most valuable asset: its data. Refusing to conform to the “one size fits all” mentality, the company offers cutting edge solutions and provides sector-leading expertise. This tailor-made approach has resulted in Equilibrium’s revenue doubling five years in a row.

Why expanding

With an increased risk of cyber-attack, fast-growing usage of data, and the forthcoming implementation of the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) next year, companies have never faced higher risks in their exposure to security threats. Equilibrium is acutely aware that this puts greater pressure on cyber security firms, and it will need to increase its operations.

Why the West Midlands?

As a specialist cyber security business based in the West Midlands, Equilibrium is in a prime position to service its network of nationwide clients. Founder Anish Chauhan has 18 years expertise in cyber security and his knowledge of Greater Birmingham’s BPFS and tech sectors made it the perfect location. The company continues to invest in the region to cement its status as a technology hub.

Gemma Beardmore, Head of Sales and Marketing at Equilibrium, said:

“Equilibrium Security is proud to be based in Birmingham; we want to support local businesses to protect them against cyber criminals. We aim to be the go-to people for businesses in the region when it comes to Cyber Security”.

What the West Midlands has offered them

Gemma Beardmore continued:

“The West Midlands Growth Company has advised us on potential new office locations, which is something that will be crucial as we look to double our staff numbers over the next two years. We are now in our fifth year of trading and have seen revenue increase by 100% each year.”

Part of Equilibrium Security Services’ core offering is helping businesses improve employees’ cyber awareness, in order to mitigate the risks arising from staff error. The SME offers a range of services including Phishing Simulation, Ransomware Protect, Malware Protection and Security Audits.
