We’re delighted to welcome Collective Security, a Nottingham-based Information and Cyber Security company, as the latest Community Ambassador at the East Midlands Cyber Resilience Centre.

Based in Nottingham, Collective Security boasts over 20 years of grassroots experience in the security industry. They bring a practical, no-jargon approach to the table, with a mission to guide clients on a security improvement journey while also developing internal capabilities, thereby reducing the risk of attempted cyber-attacks and mitigating associated reputational and financial impacts.

From top-notch consultancy services to tailor-made managed security solutions, they act as an extension of your team, eliminating unnecessary overheads.

Their track record speaks volumes - they've empowered numerous organisations to achieve Cyber Essentials and ISO27001 certifications, setting them apart from the crowd. 

Simon Plummer, Director of Collective Security, said of the Community Ambassador role:

Detective Inspector and Managing Director of the EMCRC, Colin Ellis, added:

Community Ambassadors are local companies who understand the importance of cyber resilience and who want to spread that message as wide as they can.

They do vital work, supporting the EMCRC’s message through raising awareness of our aims and objectives and directing their customers, business communities and supply chains to take advantage to the EMCRC's free offerings and affordable services.

Collective Security are another great addition to the EMCRC's Community Ambassador group, and it shows our ambition as a Centre that we wish to partner with outstanding businesses and organisations.

But our ambition doesn’t end there. We’re seeking the support of other distinguished businesses and motivational business leaders by joining us, not just as Community Ambassadors, but as Community Members, Friends of the Centre or Board members. We now have the scope for businesses to join us on various levels of affiliation.

If you would like to support our work and join our community, or feel you can bring equal skill, vision and ingenuity to the Centre in other areas, then please contact us via our website or contact Colin Ellis via his LinkedIn account.
