Pioneering a European-built AI cyber defence platform from Scotland. Alongside that, we deliver penetration testing, security architecture, data protection guidance, compliance readiness, and hands-on training to businesses of every size.
Built in Scotland for European markets. A new approach to cyber defence designed from the ground up to meet the continent's regulatory requirements, data sovereignty needs, and evolving threat landscape.
Designed to keep data where it belongs — within European jurisdictions, compliant with GDPR and emerging EU cyber regulations.
Engineered to address the threat landscape European businesses face today, not retrofitted from legacy architectures.
Developed within Scotland's world-leading cyber security ecosystem, backed by IP protection and innovation funding.
End-to-end cyber security consulting for businesses of every size. Whether you need a one-off assessment or ongoing strategic support, we bring the expertise.
Identify weaknesses before attackers do. We simulate real-world attacks against your systems, networks, and applications to find and fix vulnerabilities.
Navigate the regulatory landscape with confidence. We help you achieve and maintain compliance with key frameworks and certifications.
Build security into the foundations of your business. We design security strategies and architectures that scale with your growth.
Continuous protection without the overhead. We monitor your environment and respond to threats so you can focus on running your business.
When something goes wrong, speed matters. Our incident response service helps you contain, investigate, and recover from security breaches.
Your people are your first line of defence. We deliver practical training that helps your team recognise and respond to threats.
Choose the level of engagement that fits your needs. Every engagement starts with a conversation — no obligation, no pressure.
Plaid Security Ltd is a cyber security consultancy based in central Scotland. We provide hands-on security expertise to businesses across the Forth Valley and beyond — from sole traders who need their first Cyber Essentials certification to mid-size organisations building out their security strategy.
We're also developing a new, innovative cyber security solution designed specifically for the European market. Born from the recognition that European businesses deserve security tools built for European regulatory, sovereignty, and threat requirements — not adapted from solutions designed elsewhere. Our device is currently patent-pending with the UKIPO.
We're proud to be part of Scotland's world-leading cyber security cluster, supported by Business Gateway, Scottish Enterprise, and ScotlandIS.
Plaid Security is a proud ScotlandIS Startup Member — Scotland's digital technology membership organisation, connecting over 7,000 companies across the tech ecosystem.
Membership gives us access to Scotland's cyber and data clusters, early-stage talent pipelines via the ePlacement programme, and a direct voice to Scottish and UK Government policy makers on the issues that matter to our industry.
Every engagement starts with a free, no-obligation conversation. Tell us about your business and we'll tell you what we'd recommend — whether that's a quick health check or a full security strategy.
