70% of medium-sized UK businesses were hit by a cyber breach in the past year. That’s far higher than the 50% average across all companies, underlining the mid-market’s growing exposure.

For the mid-market, the threats aren’t just real — they’re accelerating.

AI-driven attacks, complex hybrid IT environments and ever-tightening regulations are creating a security storm, and many businesses aren’t just struggling to fend off attacks, they’re grappling with the growing complexity of their own security systems.

But in this storm lies a powerful opportunity and our latest eBook – Secure the Advantage: A Mid-Market Playbook for Cyber Resilience and Growth explores how mid-market organisations can cut through complexity with practical strategies and tailored guidance.

Ready to turn your security from a challenge into a business advantage? Download our eBook and discover how to unlock the full potential of your existing Microsoft Security suite .

Security should be a business enabler, not a blocker and the tools many mid-market businesses need to turn challenge into opportunity, are at their fingertips.

Many ambitious mid-sized businesses already own powerful Microsoft security capabilities, but too few are maximising their value. Microsoft’s enterprise-grade security solutions hold untapped potential for mid-market organisations and Softwerx can help IT leaders realise this advantage.

Dan Burborough, Head of IT Security at Hollywood Bowl summed it up perfectly: “It’s about smart utilisation. Risk reduction balanced with cost reduction. You need to maximise your licenses effectively. By partnering with Softwerx we’ve been able to make our security tools work more efficiently in an ecosystem that we can control around the clock.”

By simplifying complexity with practical strategies and tailored guidance, we help security evolve from a business obstacle into a true enabler.

This eBook is designed to help you make that transformation.

Across 10 chapters we explore today’s most urgent cybersecurity challenges and the strategic advantage you can unlock by addressing them. From Identity Protection to Zero Trust, AI governance to Data Security, we’ll show you how to protect your business while enabling growth, agility and innovation.

Because in a world of growing threats, security shouldn’t just protect the business. It should power it.
