Europe
Managed IT and cybersecurity for European businesses
Substantial working-day overlap with continental Europe, GDPR documentation built as you go, and controls that line up with what NIS2 is pushing mid-sized firms towards.
Europe is not one market, and a page claiming otherwise is not worth reading. What the countries do share is a regulatory direction of travel: GDPR set the baseline for personal data, and NIS2 has widened the range of organisations expected to demonstrate real operational security rather than a policy document.
For a mid-sized European business that usually means the same gap. The technology exists, the policies are written, and nobody is accountable day to day for proving the controls still work.
Sri Lanka is GMT+5:30, giving several hours of live overlap with CET each working day. We are explicit that we have no European office, and where physical presence is required a local partner is needed.
Why it matters here
What is different about working with us in Europe
NIS2 raises the bar on operations, not paperwork
Risk management, incident handling, business continuity and supply chain security — with management accountability attached. These are operating disciplines, which is exactly what a managed service is for.
GDPR evidence produced as a by-product
Access control records, retention that genuinely expires, restore tests with written results, and a breach process that has been rehearsed rather than merely documented.
Data residency is a design decision
Where your data sits, who can reach it, and under which agreements — settled at design time rather than discovered during an audit. Processing arrangements are documented before work starts.
Overlap, honestly described
GMT+5:30 gives good afternoon overlap with CET rather than a full shared day. Where that is not enough for a given workload, we will say so.
Common questions
Straight answers
Written to be useful on their own, whether you read them here or somewhere else quotes them.
- Can a European company use an IT provider outside the EU?
- Yes, provided the arrangement is documented. GDPR requires an appropriate transfer mechanism, commonly Standard Contractual Clauses, together with a data processing agreement and evidence of appropriate technical and organisational measures. The obligation is on documentation and controls, not on geography alone.
- What does NIS2 require from mid-sized businesses?
- NIS2 expands the scope of the earlier directive and requires in-scope organisations to implement risk management measures covering incident handling, business continuity, supply chain security and system security, with reporting obligations and accountability at management level. Implementation detail varies by member state.
- How do European businesses evidence GDPR technical measures?
- Through records rather than policies: enforced multi-factor authentication, documented patching, encryption at rest and in transit, access reviews with dates and outcomes, backups that have been restored and verified, and a breach response process that has been tested. Supervisory authorities and clients both ask for evidence.
