Cyber Security
Expert NHS Cyber Security Consultancy.
Strengthening Resilience with precision and care.
At M8 Solutions, Cyber Security consultancy is not just one of our services - it’s our core specialism. We work exclusively with healthcare organisations, delivering expert led consultancy designed to protect against sophisticated and evolving cyber threats.
Cyber Security is far more than a technical requirement, it’s the foundation of trust, resilience, and continuity across NHS services. Our consultancy approach is tailored to the unique operational pressures of the NHS, offering strategic guidance and end-to-end security solutions.
We understand what’s at stake: patient safety, data integrity, and uninterrupted care. That’s why we deliver CAF-aligned defences that support compliance, strengthen risk posture, and ensure systems remain resilient within the NHS.
When you partner with M8 Solutions, you gain more than a supplier, you gain a dedicated Cyber Security consultancy with deep NHS insight and a commitment to protecting what matters most.
What we deliver
At M8 Solutions, we are first and foremost a Cyber Security consultancy, dedicated to supporting NHS organisations. We understand the complex and evolving threat landscape facing healthcare and we specialise in delivering expert-led strategies that provide robust, proactive defence.
Our consultancy services are designed to protect sensitive patient data, enhance operational resilience, and reinforce trust across the healthcare system.
Here’s how our tailored Cyber Security consultancy makes a difference:
Cyber Risk & Assurance
We start with visibility. Through in-depth, NHS-specific risk assessments, we identify and prioritise vulnerabilities across your organisation. From policy development to physical and digital threat exposure, we provide a clear roadmap to strengthen your security posture - building resilience with confidence.
Managed Cyber Security Services
Through our specialist Cyber Security partners, we deliver 24/7 managed Cyber Security solutions that provide continuous protection without the burden of expanding in-house resources.
These trusted partnerships enable real-time threat detection, rapid incident response, and round-the-clock monitoring, giving you the assurance that your digital infrastructure is always protected.
Technical Consulting
Need extra capacity or specialist advice? Our expert team of Cyber Security consultants embed directly into your team, offering flexible, high-level support that fills skill gaps and accelerates your security maturity. With NHS backgrounds and deep domain knowledge, our team moves fast - so you stay ahead of threats.
Cyber Security Testing
We don’t just test boxes - we test for real-world risk. Our tailored Cyber Security assessments mimic modern threat behaviour to uncover critical vulnerabilities before they’re exploited. We help you understand your exposure and improve your response readiness, protecting systems, data, and patients.
Technology & Tooling
Choosing the right tools is half the battle. We work with trusted technology partners to deploy NHS-relevant Cyber Security tools that align with your priorities - from endpoint security to advanced threat intelligence platforms. Our consultancy is vendor-agnostic, so your choices are always in your best interest.

Tracy introduced me to the Cyber team, she described the team as one which was born from a military background with skills that far surpass that of your average Cyber Security partner. I find the teamwork with M8 Solutions to be unique. I find the individual responsible for delivering our CISOaaS to be exemplary and completely focused on what the Trust needs, he is not led by any supplier sales strategy. His knowledge, ability and flexibility to go above and beyond has been second to none. I am thoroughly satisfied with the solution provided and would not hesitate in recommending.”
