A great time was had last night celebrating Security Centric's 13th birthday and moving into its new office. Clients, partners and the team had a chance to unwind and enjoy some drinks and canapes whilst catching a lovely sunset from the 34th floor looking over darling harbour.

A huge thank you to everyone who showed their support and made it an enjoyable and memorable evening. It's heart warming to hear from so many people how Security Centric has positively impacted their organisation's cyber security posture. I overheard clients trading similar stories of before and after SC and the tangible improvements they enjoyed.
