Launched in 2021, our Foundation aims to support emerging talent within the North East. We do this by inviting those who show great ambition and drive, but may not yet meet our existing Entrepreneur Membership joining criteria, to become part of our growing network.
Three exciting young businesses have already joined under the Foundation and you can read all about them below!
sencode
Callum Duncan is the Technical Director at sencode Cyber Security.
sencode offer cyber security services including penetration testing and cyber awareness training/information security awareness training.
If a company has a website, office network or mobile app developed sencode ensure that once it is up and running it is secure from hackers by completing a simulated cyber attack. This allows sencode to see the path a hacker might take into hacking a company and to fix the issues before they become a problem down the line.
Sencode's cyber awareness training is vertical-specific training either in person or online and ensures companies know their staff are working securely and do not cause a risk to the companies data or their own.
