Technology you can stop thinking about. Compliance you can prove.
Coyven runs IT for financial services and regulated firms — proactively, securely, and quietly. We make Cyber Essentials, DORA and FCA operational resilience something you can evidence, not worry about. Built on five years in financial services technology, at an MSP and in-house.
Most IT problems are quiet until they aren’t.
By the time technology demands attention, it is usually because something has already gone wrong. The work is to make sure it doesn’t.
IT that only gets attention when it breaks
Without someone watching the whole estate, problems are found by the people they inconvenience — usually at the worst moment.
Technology decisions with no clear owner
Platform choices, supplier contracts and security calls land on whoever is nearest, rather than someone accountable for the direction.
A board asking questions you cannot answer
What are we spending, what are we exposed to, what happens if a key person leaves — reasonable questions that deserve straight answers.
No in-house leader, and not ready for one
You have people doing the work but no one setting the direction — and a full-time CTO is more than the stage you are at needs.
When “it works” isn’t enough — and you have to prove it.
Financial services and regulated firms answer to clients, insurers and the regulator. We run the technology and keep the evidence, so the frameworks on your desk are handled rather than hanging over you.
Cyber Essentials
Certification and Cyber Essentials Plus — achieved, maintained, and the annual reassessment handled for you.
DORA readiness
ICT risk management, incident reporting and third-party oversight prepared for the Digital Operational Resilience Act.
FCA resilience & reporting
Important business services, impact tolerances, record-keeping and outsourcing oversight — evidenced for the regulator.
Two ways to work with us.
Run the estate, or lead the direction — and often both. Each is sized to what you actually need.
IT Management as a Service
We run your IT estate as if it were our own — proactively, securely, and quietly. Monitoring, support, security, suppliers and cost, handled, so your team can stop firefighting.
- —Proactive monitoring & support
- —Security & compliance as standard
- —Vendor, licence & cost management
Fractional CTO
Senior technology leadership, part-time. We set the direction, review the decisions that are expensive to reverse, build your team, and translate technology into terms your board can act on.
- —Technology strategy & roadmap
- —Architecture & supplier review
- —Board-ready reporting
Plainly, and in that order.
Listen
A short, plain conversation about where you are and what is getting in the way. No assessment fee, no obligation.
Establish the picture
We map your estate, your costs and your risks so that everything that follows is based on what is actually there.
Run it well
We manage the day-to-day or set the direction — on a clear cadence, with reporting you can read and an exit you could use.
“We stopped worrying about IT about a month in. Things just work now, and when we do have a question we get a straight answer the same day.”
Technology that simply works.
Let’s talk.
A 30-minute call, no obligation. We’ll listen to where you are and tell you plainly whether we can help.
