About us

We tell clients what they need to hear

Audemus is Latin for “we dare”. In practice that means being straight with you about what is weak, what it costs to fix, and what you can safely leave alone.

Who we are

One company for all three

Audemus Consulting Ltd works in three areas: building security, computer security, and the equipment that protects both.

Most companies buy these from three different suppliers, and find the gaps between them during an incident.

We built the company the other way round. One team, one way of measuring risk, and one clear answer.

Company details to confirm. Start date, office address, company number, team size and where we work are placeholders until you supply them.
Our purpose

What we are for

To give businesses an honest picture of how safe they are, and a practical way to improve it, without exaggerating the danger or the cure.

Our goal

Where we are heading

To be the company businesses call when they want a straight answer more than a sales pitch, and whose advice holds up when it is tested.

How we think

Four rules we work by

Risk first, products later

We find out what the problem is before talking about equipment. A quote written before the check is just a guess with a price on it.

Keep it in proportion

Protection should match the risk. Overspending in one place takes money from somewhere it was needed.

Plain language

Written so your directors can act on it and your engineers can build it, without two documents that disagree.

We stand behind it

If we install it, we are responsible for it working as promised, not just for the boxes being on the wall.

Working together

What “one company” actually means

You can hire us for just one service. If you use more than one, they share the same risk scoring, the same contact and the same report style. Nothing gets repeated, contradicted, or lost when one supplier hands over to another.

One way of scoring risk

We score building risks and computer risks the same way, so you can compare them properly.

One person in charge

A named lead for your job, however many of our services you use.

One style of report

The same layout every time, so your team only has to learn it once.

One shared list

Problems that sit between buildings and computers get an owner instead of being forgotten.

Work with people who will tell you when you do not need them

The quickest way to judge an adviser is to ask something they could profit from exaggerating. Try us.
