Talk to someone who understands fleets, warehouses and TMS outages.
Tell us what you run, what is keeping you up at night and what a bad day would cost the operation. General enquiries are normally reviewed within one working day. Urgent cybersecurity incidents should contact us directly by phone.
Operations stopped or systems compromised?
If deliveries are halted, your TMS or WMS is down, files are encrypted or you suspect an active intrusion, call the security hotline first. Then send a brief written summary so we have a record.
Assessment, Cyber Essentials, insurance or supplier audit?
For readiness work, certification, supplier evidence requests or a security review of your operation, use the form below. General enquiries are normally reviewed within one working day. Urgent cybersecurity incidents should contact us directly by phone.
Mon to Fri, 09:00 to 17:30 UK time.
Why transport & logistics businesses contact DefendVista
Cyber risk in transport is not abstract. It shows up as lost deliveries, missed SLAs, angry customers and contracts on hold. These are the conversations we have every week.
Ransomware stopping deliveries
Trucks idle, customers chase, SLAs breached.
Fleet management system outage
No visibility on vehicles, drivers or jobs.
Warehouse system disruption
Picking stops, stock counts drift, dispatch backs up.
TMS downtime
Orders cannot be planned, allocated or invoiced.
Supplier security requirements
Tier 1 customers demanding evidence before they sign.
Cyber Essentials requirements
Tenders and contracts gated on certification.
Insurance renewal concerns
Insurers asking questions the team cannot answer.
GDPR concerns
Driver, customer and consignee data at risk.
Phishing targeting dispatch
Fake invoices, diverted payments, redirected loads.
No internal cyber expertise
IT keeps the lights on, security is nobody's job.
The cost is rarely the ransom. It is the operational downtime, lost revenue, customer complaints, contract risk, compliance failures and reputational damage that follow. Our job is to reduce the chance of any of that happening to your operation, and to be on the phone if it does.
Send us a structured enquiry
The more context you give, the more useful the first reply. Tell us what you run, what systems matter most and what an outage would cost in a typical day.
A clear, three-step response
- Step 1
Enquiry reviewed
General enquiries are normally reviewed within one working day. A DefendVista consultant reads your message and responds personally. No call centre, no chatbot, no generic sales script.
- Step 2
Short discovery call
Thirty minutes to understand your operation, your systems and what a bad day would cost you. We tell you straight whether we can help.
- Step 3
Written recommendation
A clear proposal in plain English: what we would do, what it costs, what changes for the business. You decide.
A genuinely useful 30 minutes, not a sales call.
We do not run consultations as a qualifying funnel. Every call is with a senior consultant and is built around your operation. You leave with something useful whether you ever hire us or not.
Talk to a senior consultant
No junior screening call. You get a working consultant who has done the job, not a sales rep with a slide deck.
Honest assessment
We will tell you straight what is urgent, what can wait and what does not apply to you. Even if we never work together.
Practical next steps
You leave the call with at least one specific thing you can do this week to reduce risk, written down and ready to action.
No obligation
If you decide we are not the right fit, that is fine. No follow up calls, no chasing emails, no LinkedIn pestering.
Common starting points
If you want to read up before getting in touch, these are the pages most operators look at first.
Before you get in touch
How quickly will my enquiry be reviewed?

Is the first consultation really free?
Yes. Thirty minutes with a senior DefendVista consultant, no obligation and no sales script. If we are not the right fit, we will tell you who is.
Do I need to prepare anything before the call?
Nothing formal. A rough idea of what you run, which systems matter most and what an outage would cost in a typical day is plenty. We do the rest.
Will you sign an NDA?
Yes. We will sign your NDA before the call, or send ours, whichever you prefer.
Where is DefendVista based?
DefendVista Ltd is registered in England and Wales, ICO registered, and every consultant is UK based. We work with operators across the UK.
Who will I actually speak to?
A senior consultant. Our lead has a military logistics background, an MSc in Cybersecurity and Digital Forensics and the CEH certification. No junior gatekeepers, no offshore call centre.
Responsible disclosure
