Security operations specialist secures spot on the coveted Services Company of the Year shortlist in recognition of its commitment to technical excellence and client success

NormCyber, the UK-based security operations specialist, has today announced it has been shortlisted inthe Services Company of the Year (<100 employees) category at the prestigious UK IT Industry Awards. The achievement highlights Norm’s technical excellence and proven success in making robust cyber resilience achievable for organisations that lack the resources or in-house expertise to tackle today’s escalating threat landscape.
The BCS & Computing UK IT Industry Awards are a platform for the entire profession to celebrate best practice, innovation and excellence. Norm’s nomination for Services Company of the Year is based on its track record of delivering clearly-defined, measurable and cost-effective cyber security and data protection managed services to mid-market and enterprise organisations across finance, healthcare, manufacturing and the public sector, among others.
Norm’s service innovation is rooted in the recognition that enterprise clients need far more than basic monitoring and off-the-shelf tooling – they require dedicated expertise embedded within their operations and a single, unified view of their cyber risk. In response, Norm pioneered the Focal Analyst (FA) model – a unique, consultative approach that blends human intelligence with technology to deliver tailored, proactive cyber defence. Supporting this model is Smartbloc, Norm’s real-time performance dashboard, which aggregates data from across the client’s environment to present a single, dynamic view of their cyber health.
By coupling tailored consultancy and cutting‑edge technology, Norm has redefined service delivery – replacing the traditional MSSP model with a proactive approach grounded in business context, accountability and measurable impact. Norm’s managed services evolve in step with clients’ business priorities and cover the full spectrum of security operations, spanning Managed Detection and Response, Incident Response, Vulnerability Management, Penetration Testing, Human Risk Management, Data Protection and Compliance.
“It’s a proud moment to see our name on the UK IT Industry Awards shortlist once again – this time, recognising our business-focused service model, which stands out not only in cyber security but also in the wider IT sector,” said Wayne Churchill, CEO of NormCyber. “At Norm, we see our mission as making the complex clear. By combining expert guidance with data-driven insights, we give organisations visibility and control over their risk exposure so they can make informed decisions. This recognition shines light on these important efforts and supports us in bringing clarity and confidence to boardrooms across the UK and Europe.”
“Congratulations to Norm on being named as a finalist for the UK IT Industry Awards. Reaching the shortlist is an impressive achievement in the face of stiff competition, especially this year when the market is changing so quickly,” said Tom Allen, Editor, Computing.
UK IT Industry Awards winners will be revealed on 12th November 2025 at the Evolution event space in Battersea Park, London.
