About IT Security Cork

Customers are buying experience, not just software.

IT Security Cork is built around practical security advice for Irish SMEs, drawing on years of enterprise endpoint security, security operations, and governance experience.

Billy O'Sullivan is a Cork-based cybersecurity professional with experience across endpoint security, security operations, incident response, and governance. Pulse brings that background into a service designed for smaller businesses that want clarity, confidence, and straightforward guidance.

The goal is simple: help businesses understand whether they are secure, explain what needs fixing, and provide ongoing oversight in a practical way.

The dashboard is there to support that service. It helps collect the results, but those results are then reviewed, explained, prioritised, and turned into sensible next steps so customers are not left on their own with a technical tool.

Why this matters

  • Many SMEs do not have a dedicated security team
  • Security decisions still need to be made clearly and confidently
  • Pulse is designed to reduce uncertainty, not add more jargon

What Is Pulse?

A service that helps you stay on top of device security.

Pulse is not sold as another dashboard. It is an ongoing security monitoring and advisory service powered by the Pulse platform, giving small businesses visibility into what needs attention and what to do next.

What you pay for

  • Peace of mind that someone is keeping an eye on security health
  • Visibility into missing updates, misconfigurations, and weak spots
  • Clear monthly reporting without enterprise jargon
  • Practical advice on what should be fixed first

How the platform supports that service

The dashboard surfaces the findings, report history, and device detail that make the service useful. It is there to support visibility and action, not to burden customers with another tool they need to learn.

Why Businesses Need Pulse

Most small businesses do not need more noise. They need clarity.

Many security issues are mundane until they matter: missing updates, disabled protection, weak settings, or devices that quietly fall behind. Pulse helps surface these issues in a way that is easy to understand.

Updates

Know when important security updates are missing.

See which systems need attention before patching gaps become a risk to the business.

Protection

Spot misconfigurations that reduce security.

Identify issues with settings such as Defender, firewall, BitLocker, and core device posture.

Visibility

Understand overall security health across your devices.

Get a clear view of which devices are healthy, stale, offline, or carrying unresolved findings.

Reporting

Receive reports that point to practical next steps.

Monthly reporting is written to support decisions and remediation, not just tick a box.

Support

Work with a local partner, not just a platform.

Pulse is backed by IT Security Cork, so customers get oversight and guidance along with the tooling.

Confidence

Know what needs fixing before it becomes a bigger problem.

Prioritised findings help focus effort where it reduces risk fastest.

What Pulse Monitors

Security checks translated into business outcomes.

Pulse looks after the kinds of issues that often go unnoticed in smaller environments until someone asks, “Are we sure these devices are in a good place?”

Windows updates

See when devices are behind on important security updates.

Microsoft Defender

Know when endpoint protection is disabled, unhealthy, or misconfigured.

Firewall and BitLocker

Check that key protection controls are enabled where they should be.

Local administrator exposure

Highlight device access issues that can increase risk if left unmanaged.

Device health and check-ins

See which devices are active, stale, offline, or carrying unresolved problems.

Security posture trends

Track whether things are improving, drifting, or starting to slip over time.

How It Works

Ongoing oversight, not a one-off check.

Pulse is structured as a recurring service so customers continue receiving visibility, reports, and support rather than a once-and-done scan.

Customer devices report back on relevant endpoint security checks.

2

Security findings are collected

Missing updates, weak settings, and posture issues are surfaced in one place.

3

Results are reviewed

Findings are interpreted with context so the business is not left to decode raw technical output.

4

Customers receive a clear monthly report

Reports focus on security health, exposure, and practical actions.

5

Remediation guidance is provided

Customers understand what should be fixed first and why it matters.

6

Review meetings are included by plan
