1Our business

Threat Protect Limited is a UK-based cybersecurity business. We provide cybersecurity software resale, advisory, implementation, compliance support and related security services to business customers.

Our operations are primarily professional-services and technology-resale based. We do not manufacture goods and do not operate in industries traditionally associated with a high risk of forced labour.

Threat Protect Limited is incorporated in England and Wales with company number 11157802.

Registered office: Admirals Offices, Main Gate Road, The Historic Dockyard, Chatham, Kent, United Kingdom, ME4 4TZ.

2Our supply chains

Threat Protect’s supply chain is primarily made up of software vendors, cybersecurity product providers, cloud service providers, distributors, professional advisers, finance and accounting providers, hosting and technology providers, office services, training providers and other business support services.

Threat Protect does not operate manufacturing facilities and does not generally procure goods from complex or high-volume manufacturing supply chains as part of its ordinary business activities.

We recognise, however, that modern slavery risks can arise at different levels of a supply chain, particularly where labour practices are not readily visible or where services are subcontracted.

3Our approach

Threat Protect seeks to reduce the risk of modern slavery and human trafficking through reasonable and proportionate measures, including where appropriate:

1. selecting suppliers and service providers carefully;
2. undertaking supplier onboarding and review activities appropriate to the nature of the goods or services being provided;
3. requiring suppliers to comply with applicable laws;
4. maintaining internal reporting routes for unlawful, unethical or concerning conduct;
5. using contractual controls where appropriate; and
6. applying recruitment and employment practices intended to support lawful and fair working arrangements.

Threat Protect does not knowingly engage with any business or organisation involved in slavery, servitude, forced or compulsory labour, child labour, worker exploitation or human trafficking.

4Employment and recruitment

Threat Protect is committed to fair and lawful employment practices.

We seek to ensure that people engaged by Threat Protect work voluntarily, are subject to lawful terms, and are treated fairly and with dignity.

Where applicable, Threat Protect carries out right to work checks and other pre-engagement checks required by law or considered appropriate for the relevant role or engagement.

Threat Protect does not knowingly use forced, bonded or compulsory labour, and does not knowingly permit recruitment practices that involve worker exploitation, unlawful recruitment fees, withholding of identity documents or restrictions on a worker’s freedom to leave employment.

5Due diligence and risk

Threat Protect applies a risk-based and proportionate approach to supplier and business risk.

In assessing relevant third parties, Threat Protect may take into account:

1. the nature of the goods or services supplied;
2. the supplier’s location and operating model;
3. the extent of subcontracting;
4. the sector and labour profile of the supplier;
5. the supplier’s reputation and available compliance information; and
6. any other risk indicators considered relevant in the circumstances.

Where a higher level of risk is identified, Threat Protect may seek further information or assurance before entering into, renewing or continuing the relevant relationship.
