We work for the budget holder, not the vendor.

Incommsec has advised UK businesses on IT buying and cyber security since 2010. We're vendor-neutral, we work open book, and our margin on anything we buy for you is capped at 15%.

What we believe

You should know what your IT really costs.

Most IT resellers earn more when you spend more. We think that's the wrong way round.

We started Incommsec to sit on the client's side of the table. That means showing you vendor prices, capping our own margin and recommending only what fits your risk and your budget.

Cyber security is where we spend most of our time. Our clients usually fund it by paying a fair price for the IT they already have, then putting the difference to work.

How we work

Four commitments.

Open book

You can see what we paid for anything we buy for you, at any time.

Capped margin

15% on anything we buy on your behalf, written into the contract.

Vendor-neutral

We recommend on merit, and we'll tell you when you don't need something.

Accountable

One point of contact who answers to you and, where it matters, to your board.

Mike Hainsworth, Founder and Director

Mike founded Incommsec in 2010. It began by supplying connectivity and communications services, and by 2012 it had moved fully into cyber security. Before that, he worked in the Internet Service Provider sector in the early 2000s, as part of management teams that took two businesses through mergers and acquisitions.

He has built Incommsec around two things: vendor partnerships chosen on merit, and a team of specialists with backgrounds in the military and banking, serving clients across the UK and internationally.

Today Mike works directly with finance directors, managing directors and boards. He helps them understand their cyber risk, get fair value from their IT spend, and put clear governance in place.
