A small ask, and a nice bit of news behind it.

Collective Security has been nominated for Cybersecurity Business of the Year (East Midlands), and the winner is decided by public vote. Voting closes on 18 August.

From our base at the University of Nottingham's Ingenuity Centre, we help businesses across the Midlands get certified, get tested, get their teams trained, and (when the worst happens) get back on their feet.

If you've worked with us, or you just like backing local specialists, we'd be really grateful for a vote. It takes about thirty seconds (it texts you a code to keep the bots out, and that's the lot) 👇

Thank you. It makes a real difference to a small team.

Some exciting news to share. We've moved! 🎉

Collective Security is now based at the Ingenuity Centre, Jubilee Campus, University of Nottingham. Beautiful spaces, a brilliant setting, and plenty of room for a team that's growing year on year.

More space means more capacity to do what we do best, making cyber security simple, stress-free and genuinely reassuring for the businesses we work with.

We love our new home, and we're only just getting started. Come and say hello.

We did it!

A few weeks ago we shared that Simon Plummer would be joining a panel at Infosecurity Europe2026 (Communities of Support: Scaling Practical Cyber Help for SMEs.)

Well, we showed up. And it was worth every minute.

The conversation on that panel was exactly the kind the industry needs more of, honest, practical, and focused on the businesses that need cyber help most but are hardest to reach. The room was engaged, the questions were sharp, and it felt like a genuinely important discussion to be part of. Great to share the stage with a great panel Steven Furnell, Richard Morrison-Butcher, Amanda Finch FCIIS and Helen Barge.

Kate Plummer has been busy behind the scenes pulling together a reel from the day with some panel moments, vendor conversations, and a few things we weren't expecting. Take a look and give us a follow.

Thank you to the Infosec Europe team for having us. We'll be back.

Parenting in a Digital World: It's Not About Fear, It’s About Conversation.

We know how overwhelming it is trying to keep your children safe online. You asked how to even start the conversation about cyber risks without creating fear or confusion.

Great news!

As part of our Cyber Awareness Month Q&A, Simon sat down with his son, Jack (age 11), to show you exactly how simple it can be. We had to split this one in two parts to make sure we covered everything so keep an eye out for second video!

In Part 1 of this special Q&A, we cover:

The Approach: How to prepare and educate your children to be safe digital citizens, not just follow a rigid set of rules.

The Top 3 Cyber Conversations: The three non-negotiable rules ('The Tell Rule,' 'The Digital Name Tag,' and 'The Locker Rule') you need to have with your kids today—especially if they "occasionally nick your tech."

A massive thank you to everyone who submitted questions.

Later this week, we'll dive into Part 2, where we tackle the overwhelming world of settings and controls, answering the question: "Where do I even start with securing my child's PlayStation/Xbox?"

What is the biggest challenge you face talking to your kids about online risks? Let us know!

Cyber Security Awareness Month 2025 is officially here!

The most important thing for us at Collective Security is giving businesses and owners like you the confidence and clarity you need—without the confusing jargon.

We’re kicking off the month by inviting you to set the agenda. Watch our video below where Simon, our resident expert, explains exactly why we’re asking for your questions.

We want to answer your real, practical questions about cyber security in our weekly video series throughout October. No question is too basic or too complex—if it's stopping you from achieving peace of mind, we want to hear it.

What is the one thing about cyber security that you’d love a simple answer to?
Drop your question in the comments, send us a DM, or email us privately.

MILLIONS of children's books pulled from shelves due to a simple expired URL. 😱

The recent 'Spy Dogs' scandal is the most shocking lesson in domain name security we've seen this year. The failure? A forgotten web address printed in the Spy Dogs, Spy Pups, and Spy Cat series was registered by a third party and redirected to po*******hy.

This wasn't a hack. It was a failure of asset management. And the same ticking time bomb exists in every UK business with old packaging, archived campaigns, or forgotten digital assets. Any passive URL is a live liability.

We break down the scandal and provide 4 non-negotiable steps to audit and secure your entire digital footprint before your brand is targeted.

Don't wait for a public scandal to expose your weakest link.

Next week is the start of Cyber Security Awareness Month 2025! 🔒

At Collective Security, we believe that understanding cybersecurity is for everyone, regardless of your role. Whether you're a parent, a sole trader, or a business leader, we all have questions about staying safe in the digital world.

This month, we want to answer yours.

Tell us, what's your burning question about cybersecurity?
🚨 What’s the biggest cybersecurity threat you think we face today?
💡 What’s a common myth about information security that you’d like to debunk?
🔐 What’s your go-to method for creating strong passwords?

Ask us anything in the comments or DM us if you prefer!

Each week in October, we'll share a video covering your top questions, providing clear advice, practical guidance, and resources to help you take control of your digital safety. We're happy to promote your question from you or your business, or keep it anonymous if you prefer.

Let's make cybersecurity a conversation, not a chore.
