The Problem
Each Store Opened With Its Own Wi-Fi, Logins, and Vendors
It shows up when head office can't say which store is weakest or a vendor's remote tool turns up on a register. Sometimes last December's seasonal logins still work in spring.
Shared codes
One manager code approves every refund and override.
Shared codes
Named logins, with override rights only for the roles that need them.
Mixed Wi-Fi
Registers, cameras, and guest Wi-Fi share one network.
Mixed Wi-Fi
POS, staff, guest, and device zones split at every store.
Vendor access
Several vendors can reach the registers remotely.
Vendor access
One register of vendor tools, each on named accounts with MFA.
Seasonal logins
Holiday hires keep working logins into spring.
Seasonal logins
A first-day and last-day checklist for every seasonal hire.
Store 7 has its Wi-Fi password taped inside the back office door. The registers, the security cameras, and guest Wi-Fi share one network. Your POS reseller, the camera installer, and the signage company can each reach those systems remotely. Every refund and price override runs on one manager code. Three seasonal hires from last December still have working logins. Leave it, and the first breach starts at your weakest store and reaches the rest through shared accounts.
We start with one reference store, because every other location copies it. We review it end to end, write a baseline your managers can follow, then roll it out store by store. Networks get split into four zones and registers get named logins. Override rights go only to the roles that need them, and every vendor's remote access goes into one register. Your stores end up secured the same way instead of a different way at each location.
One baseline for every store
A written standard for registers, Wi-Fi, devices, and logins that each location follows.
Four network zones per store
POS, staff, guest, and device traffic split, so one camera can't reach a register.
Logins tied to real people
Named register and back-office accounts replace shared manager codes at every location.
Our Retail Cybersecurity Consulting Process
From One Reference Store to a Secured Chain in Five Steps
You approve the reference store findings first, then the written baseline, then each store's rollout date, so no register changes happen during a busy trading day.
We go over your stores, POS platform, networks, head office systems, and vendors. You leave with the main risks we heard and a fixed quote. If your POS provider's built-in security settings already cover a small setup, we'll tell you before we quote.

Compare Options
DeveloperLook vs Store IT vendor vs Managed security plan
A store IT vendor and a managed security plan each suit some retailers, and both have strengths. Here is where each fits and where a chain still needs one standard rolled out.
| Feature | DeveloperLookBest fit | Store IT vendor | Managed security plan |
|---|---|---|---|
| Planning | Free call, fixed price per store count | Quoted job by job | Monthly per-device fee |
| Store baseline | One written standard for every store | Each store set up separately | Generic policy templates |
| Network zones | Four zones planned per store | Strong on installing hardware | Monitors, rarely redesigns |
| Register logins | Named logins and override rights | Not usually covered | Not covered |
| Vendor access | Every remote tool in one register | Uses its own tools | Alerts on unusual logins |
| Ongoing alerts | Not included, project-based | Not included | 24/7 alert watching |
| Cost | Fixed price from $750 | Hourly or per visit | Ongoing monthly fee |

What Our Clients Say
What Clients Say After Launch
Feedback from teams we have built stores, apps, and websites for.
We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.
The mobile experience is probably my favourite part of the new site. We had spent a lot of time making sure the desktop version looked right, and the team kept pushing us to think about how everything would actually feel on a phone too. They were right. The navigation is clean, the interactions feel natural, and everything we’ve tested so far works exactly as it should. They also went through the links, forms, integrations, and other details more than once before launch, which I really appreciated. And even after going live, we could still reach out when something came up. The whole process felt friendly, organised, and surprisingly straightforward.
What I appreciate most is that the website is actually easy for us to manage now. We can update content ourselves instead of sending a developer a message every time we need to change something small. They also paid attention to the technical SEO side, which mattered to us because we didn’t want a new website to create problems for the traffic we already had. I’ve probably asked more questions than I should have since launch, but every question has been handled patiently and without any fuss. The team is easy to work with, they explain things clearly, and when we need something changed, they focus on getting it done rather than making the process complicated.

Work Culture
Why Retailers Trust Us With Their Stores and Registers
We plan around trading hours and the holiday calendar, and we speak to store managers in plain terms. These habits keep retail cyber security work from slowing down a single sale.
Done before the holiday freeze
We schedule store changes for the quieter months and stop before your peak season. Registers stay untouched while your busiest weeks are running.
Reference store first
We prove every change at one location before touching the rest. If something breaks, it breaks in one store, not twenty.
Your vendors stay involved
Your network installer and POS reseller keep their roles. We give them the baseline, and their remote access gets tighter.
Plain words for store managers
Managers get a one-page checklist, not a security manual. If a cheaper fix covers the risk, you hear about it first.
Fixed price by store count
You get one price for your stores and head office before work starts. Extra locations are priced in writing before we add them.
Scorecards you own
The baseline, scorecards, and vendor register stay in a folder you control. New stores open with the same standard from day one.

Good fit
Regional chains with several stores
Your stores opened years apart, so each has its own Wi-Fi setup, register logins, and a different vendor holding the router password.
Specialty retailers on Lightspeed or Shopify POS
Your registers share one manager code for refunds and price overrides, and nobody can say who approved last month's odd returns.
Franchise and multi-brand operators
You run stores on Square and Clover under different brands and need cybersecurity for retail that managers follow the same way everywhere.
Retailers hiring for the holidays
You add seasonal staff every November, some still had working logins in March, and their Microsoft 365 accounts were left switched on.
IT providers and retail consultants
You support store chains and need cybersecurity in retail delivered under your own brand, location by location, without hiring a security lead.
Not a fit
Online store only
You sell only online and have no registers or stores. Ecommerce Security Services covers store admin access, checkout scripts, and card testing.
Need the PCI SAQ done
You need your SAQ type confirmed, evidence gathered, and the attestation sent to your bank. PCI Compliance Services covers that full program.
Round-the-clock monitoring
You want alerts from every store watched overnight and on weekends. 24/7 Security Monitoring covers that ongoing service rather than a project.
One shop, under $750
You run a single shop on Square with one login and under $750 to spend. Square's own security settings plus MFA on email are a fine start.

Send a message or book a call with the team.
Our work starts at $750 for a reference store review. It covers head office logins, one store walkthrough, a written baseline, a network zone plan, and a scorecard. Rolling the baseline out to up to 5 stores costs $2,050. Chains with up to 20 stores and a warehouse start at $4,200.
A reference store review takes 2 to 3 weeks, including the written baseline. A chain rollout takes 4 to 10 weeks, depending on store count and how quickly your network vendor can visit each site. We plan it so every change lands before your holiday freeze.
Choose ones that fit your stores' real systems and show their work. Ask for a written scope, a fixed price, references to your POS platform, and proof they test changes at one store before the rest. Be cautious with tools that promise full protection, because store risk mostly comes from setup and logins.
Partly. Our baseline keeps card data paths small: registers on their own network zone, terminals checked for tampering, and named logins. We name PCI DSS v4.0.1 where it applies, but your SAQ type, evidence, and attestation come through our PCI Compliance Services page and your acquirer.
Into at least four zones: POS and payment terminals, staff devices, guest Wi-Fi, and building devices like cameras and signage. Each zone reaches only what it needs, so a camera or guest phone can't talk to a register. Your network vendor sets the rules, and we write and check them.
We give every manager and supervisor a personal login on your POS, then limit refunds, voids, and price overrides to their roles. Most POS platforms, including Lightspeed, Square, and Shopify POS, support named staff accounts and permission sets. Overrides then show a real name in the report.
Finish store changes by early November and freeze registers and networks through the peak season. We front-load the reference store and the riskiest locations in late summer and early fall. Anything left waits until January, when store traffic drops and seasonal logins get switched off for good.
The best managed cybersecurity service for retail infrastructure watches every store's network and devices around the clock and knows how registers behave. Ours is a project, not a monitoring service, so we set up the baseline that monitoring needs. For ongoing alert watching, our 24/7 Security Monitoring page covers that.
It is one that secures every location to the same standard and can prove it store by store. Look for a written baseline, per-store scorecards, a vendor access register, and work timed around trading hours. Retail cybersecurity for chains fails when each store is fixed differently, so consistency matters more than tools.
Your operations lead and store managers do, using the baseline, scorecards, and seasonal staff checklist. New stores open against the same baseline from day one. For 30 days after handover we answer questions, and a yearly store review can be booked as a fixed-price job.
