Forensic Resources modernises operations with a cloud-first transformation delivered by NetSec
Forensic Resources, a specialist organisation with a small team of fewer than five users, approached NetSec to help them modernise outdated systems and improve overall security. Their previous IT setup relied heavily on on-premise servers and legacy applications, creating unnecessary costs and limiting flexibility at a time when remote working had become essential.
The Challenges
The company needed a smooth transition away from their previous provider and a full move from ageing on-site infrastructure to a resilient cloud environment. They also needed stronger security controls, better licensing alignment, and ongoing support from a partner capable of taking ownership of their technology stack.
Their priorities included reducing operational overheads, consolidating tools, and ensuring their small team could work securely from any location without reliance on legacy systems.
The Solution
NetSec delivered a structured onboarding process designed to remove disruption and provide clarity from day one. The team migrated Forensic Resources from their on-premise infrastructure to a fully cloud-based setup, enabling seamless remote access and improving reliability.
As part of the transformation, NetSec upgraded their Microsoft licensing to unlock advanced security features, giving the organisation stronger protection across identity, devices, and data. A centralised email signature solution was implemented to streamline branding and reduce management overhead.
A three-year partnership was agreed, giving Forensic Resources comprehensive IT support, cybersecurity oversight, procurement guidance, and strategic consultancy within a single managed service package.
The Results
The shift to modern cloud services immediately reduced complexity and improved performance. With enhanced Microsoft security controls in place and NetSec's cybersecurity monitoring, the business now operates with significantly improved cyber resilience.
The company has also achieved substantial cost savings, around 50%, by removing the expense of maintaining legacy systems and consolidating services under the NetSec managed package.
We have recently moved over to NetSec and they have been amazing at onboarding myself and the team, and have implemented a whole load of new security measures and given invaluable advice on additional ways to streamline our IT system and processes within our business. The process has been seamless and we feel we are in very safe hands with the proactive and professional team at NetSec. Would highly recommend them for all IT needs.

Forensic Resources now have the stability, security, and long-term IT partnership they needed, allowing their team to focus fully on client work without the distraction of technical issues.
