The Cyber Toolkit team brings years of experience in both cyber security and law enforcement, witnessing an increase in cyber-attacks across all industries. Our mission is simple, to make cyber security straightforward and accessible for organisations, and to help build trust with customers and supply chains through the Cyber Risk Score.
While most features of the Cyber Toolkit are available for no cost, some services require payment, these include ongoing monitoring of supply chain Cyber Risk Scores, instant rescans to verify that mitigations are effective, and extended data storage (by default, results are stored for seven days). The platform uses a credit system for purchasing these extra services as needed.
A notable emphasis on supply chain management stems from the Cyber Toolkit business model, the largest 1% of companies pay for premium features, enabling organisations of any size to benefit from the suite of cyber tools at no cost. This approach helps everyone enhance their organisation’s cyber security and that of their supply chain. Paid features remain optional, anyone can use them, but they aren’t necessary to enjoy the core benefits of the system.
Although Cyber Toolkit is a new company, registered in 2026, the team behind it is not new and have been working together for a long time running many of the UK's largest public cyber schemes. Most members of our team for this new venture have worked together at Pervade Software, the organisation responsible for the assessment platform used for the Cyber Essentials scheme since it's launch in 2014, the organisation which created and has run Police CyberAlarm from it's inception in 2017 until February 2026 and the organisation which created and ran the darkweb index software used by some of the world's largest public and private organisations. This core development team is bolstered by experts in Police cyber investigation and Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) research, adding even more expertise to the already very experienced Cyber Toolkit team.
