Renaissance and CyberSmart Partner to Deliver Complete Cyber Confidence for SMEs

Renaissance and CyberSmart Partner to Deliver Complete Cyber Confidence for SMEs

Author: Irish Tech News April 24, 2026 Duration: 3:24
Renaissance has announced a strategic partnership with CyberSmart, a UK-based cybersecurity provider focused on delivering continuous protection, compliance, and cyber risk management for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
This collaboration brings CyberSmart's cybersecurity solutions to a wider market, spanning real-time threat detection, vulnerability management, compliance assurance, and cybersecurity awareness training. Designed for simplicity and scalability, the platform provides 24/7 protection across desktop and mobile environments, supporting modern IT infrastructures including remote working and bring-your-own-device (BYOD).
Fully compatible with existing systems, CyberSmart enhances security without adding complexity. Its ability to provide continuous visibility, automated patching, and audit-ready compliance aligned with standards such as Cyber Essentials Plus, ISO 27001, and NIS2 enables organisations to proactively manage cyber risk while reducing operational overhead.
Through this partnership, Renaissance will offer CyberSmart's solutions to enterprises, MSPs, and MSSPs seeking to strengthen their security posture while simplifying cybersecurity management. The collaboration also enables partners to deliver scalable monitoring, training, and cyber insurance services together, helping clients manage cybersecurity more effectively.
Michael Conway, Managing Director of Renaissance, commented:
"CyberSmart enables us to deliver a simpler, more proactive approach to cybersecurity. It helps our customers stay secure while reducing complexity across their IT environments."
Jamie Akhtar, CEO and Co-Founder of CyberSmart, added:
"Our mission is to make cybersecurity accessible and effective for every organisation, no matter the size, especially as the threat and regulatory landscape continue to shift. For example, our recent research revealed that only 1 in 4 businesses say they are fully NIS2 compliant, despite the initial 2024 compliance deadline. This is largely down to budgetary and resource constraints, as well as general confusion. As leaders turn to MSPs and MSSPs for cost-effective cyber support, partnering with Renaissance allows us to bring clarity and confidence to businesses across Ireland at scale and with ease, helping them remain secure and compliant."
