The local picture

What matters for offices in Edinburgh

Edinburgh has one of the UK’s largest financial services sectors outside London, along with law firms, universities, tourism and a lively startup scene.

UK GDPR requires organizations to report certain personal data breaches to the Information Commissioner’s Office within 72 hours of becoming aware. Many UK clients and public bodies ask suppliers for Cyber Essentials, the government-backed scheme covering firewalls, secure configuration, access control, malware protection and patching.

Our focus

What we prioritize for Edinburgh clients

  1. Controls aligned with the five Cyber Essentials technical areas.
  2. A 72-hour breach assessment and reporting process.
  3. UK data residency for email and backups where required.
  4. Secure document handling for legal and financial work.

Remote by design

How service works from a distance

Edinburgh’s working day overlaps with our morning hours. We agree a coverage window in your plan and schedule maintenance outside UK office hours.

Computer Plus does not keep an office in Edinburgh. We have served clients remotely for years, and everything from the help desk to monitoring and backups is delivered that way.

FAQ

Questions from Edinburgh offices

Can you certify us for Cyber Essentials?

Certification is issued through an accredited certification body. We implement the controls and prepare the evidence so the assessment goes smoothly.

Does our data have to stay in the UK?

Not always, but many firms prefer it and some contracts require it. We configure UK regions for supported services.
