"With SenseOn, CISOs and security teams no longer have to manually combine multiple pieces of software into a comprehensive defensive strategy. Through a single holistic platform, they are able to detect, solve and prevent cyber-attacks and gain a better understanding of their entire digital estate. This is a difficult problem to solve and we believe SenseOn is the team to solve it."

What our customers have to say

Learn why hundreds of organisations choose SenseOn.

“We just put SenseOn in and let it flow. There was minimal time for implementation. Nothing we’ve ever put in has shown value so quickly. We have gone from not having a security team, to having a security team as a result of SenseOn.”

Matt Blee

Cyber Security Manager, Yeo Valley

“SenseOn was the toolset we'd been missing. As a small business, we need to have the same level of protection against threats as the big players, but we don't have the budget to employ dedicated security specialists and this is where SenseOn comes in."

Andrew Walles

IT Solutions Architect, Harbottle and Lewis

“SenseOn is our most valuable security tool due to its ease of use and ability to detect across the estate. The speed of customer service is a huge benefit - I can use the intercom and within minutes, I have a response and someone helping me build a query or general support where I have a knowledge gap.”

Jim Newman

Senior VP of Information Security, KidsLoop

“We were keen to utilise new and innovative technology to defend our organisation. We spent a lot of time looking at more conventional solutions, but only SenseOn offered the functionality we wanted at a sensible price point.”

Adrian Moore

IT Director, bpha

"SenseOn is what you look for in a partner. They have been amazing to work with and dedicated to the success of Advantage and protecting our business."
