Hicomply x Net-Defence: Compliance Meets Resilience

After crossing paths at the Cyber North Awards in October 2024; where both of our teams were proudly shortlisted; we struck up a conversation with Net-Defence; a leader in cyber resilience and managed IT services.

Our conversation quickly uncovered a real synergy between our businesses. We discovered shared values; complementary services; and a mutual drive to support organisations on their compliance and cyber journeys. This has since grown into a partnership built on aligned thinking; shared values; and a drive to do things differently.

A shared vision

Net-Defence was looking for a smarter; more efficient way to manage their compliance needs and protect their certifications. They chose to adopt the Hicomply platform internally; becoming both a user and a strategic partner.

“As a business that’s going to market and potentially giving it to their customers; I don’t think you can get a better review than ‘we have it; we use it; we love it!’”Debra Cairns - Managing Director; Net-Defence

This partnership creates new opportunities for both teams to deliver more value to customers; without overlapping services or markets. While Hicomply focuses on compliance software; Net-Defence leads in service-driven cyber resilience. Together; we bring end-to-end support to businesses that want to stay secure; compliant and prepared.

‍

Why it works

This isn’t a typical tech partnership. It works because we bring different things to the table:

1. Different strengths; shared purpose - we deliver different but complementary services. Hicomply specialises in compliance software; while Net-Defence delivers cyber resilience and IT services.

2. No market overlap - we serve different industries and sectors; which gives us both room to grow.

3. Innovation-first mindset -  we’re both looking to evolve our offerings and shake up the market by delivering real value in smarter; more human ways.

“I think the bit that massively overlaps is our passion for service and our passion for giving customers exactly what they need. No oversell; no jargon - just straightforward. This will help you be resilient; compliant; safe; secure; and protected.”
Debra Cairns - Managing Director; Net-Defence

Looking ahead

As more businesses look to simplify their security and compliance processes; partnerships like this one make it easier to access integrated; trusted support. From startups to large enterprises; our combined expertise helps organisations build resilience; stay certified; and reduce risk; with fewer stops along the way.

We’re proud to be working with Net-Defence and look forward to seeing where this partnership takes us.
