Serros

Security specialists who think like attackers.

Serros started in South Africa with a simple belief: businesses across Africa shouldn't need their own security department to stay safe.

Our story

We kept getting called in after the breach. So we started showing up before it.

Our founders spent years as incident responders, helping companies recover after attacks. The pattern was always the same: the tools were there, but nobody was watching them, and nobody owned the response.

Serros exists to close that gap. We help you choose the right cyber security solutions, configure them properly and run them for you, with a team monitoring 24 hours a day, every day of the year.

Principles

What you can expect from us, every month.

Four commitments that shape how we advise, respond and report.

  1. 01

    Vendor-neutral advice

    We recommend the solutions that fit your business, not the ones with the best reseller margin.

  2. 02

    Senior people only

    You speak with consultants and analysts who have five to fifteen years in security.

  3. 03

    Reporting in plain English

    Monthly reports that explain risk in business terms you can take to your board.

  4. 04

    You stay in control

    Licences, data and admin access stay in your name. You can leave at any time with everything handed over.

Why Serros

How we compare to the usual options.

Tech companies usually weigh three ways to handle cyber security. Here's how they stack up.
