"Firstly, I would like to offer my thanks not only for the speed at which the recent spate of tests have been carried out, but
furthermore the professionalism and obvious adherence to process you have demonstrated throughout. You have clearly demonstrated that as an organisation
First Base is able to add value to the security topic in several ways. I felt that the teleconference held between Partnership, First Base and our technology
partner was an invaluable exercise in establishing root causes and subsequent follow up actions."
Daniel Gwalter, Head of IT, Partnership Assurance

"We have worked closely with First Base Technologies to improve our understanding of
network security risks, in particular in relation to our web sites, and we have always found the First Base Technologies
team responsive, professional and highly competent."
Peter Taylor, Information Security Manager, Bradford & Bingley

"In the course of a business case preparation, I asked Pete to scan one of my most sensitive environments.
Pete and his team worked with adequate caution, finding critical vulnerabilities nevertheless. Jointly we evaluated their findings,
developed a story arc on how to present them in business management language. Pete turned the findings into a concise, BBC-quality video.
The business case presentation worked like a charm. Beside the professionalism, it is great fun to work with Pete and his team.
I can strongly recommend to go for First Base!"
Thomas Wegner, Information Security Manager, Yara

has proven knowledgeable, flexible and helpful - providing expert services with the minimum of fuss. Their reports
are accurate and meaningful, backed up with discussions and explanations to ensure that we are as secure as
possible."

"I first came across Peter Wood and First Base Technologies in 1998. I have sought them
out in the two companies I have worked for since, and have recommended them on many occasions. A high level
of professionalism has been displayed in every piece of work they have undertaken for me - their pragmatic
approach is refreshing and their genuine enthusiasm for the work they do shines through on every assignment."
Myles Gibbins, Group IT Director, Crest Nicholson

"I first came into contact with First Base Technologies through training courses they ran on
Windows NT and firewall security on behalf of Sophos. The courses were excellent: informative, relaxed and easy to
follow. When I needed to ensure our Internet connection was secure, I turned to them for assistance. The reports they
provided on our installation were very thorough and easy to follow, and included suggested solutions to potential
problems. In addition, they have been available to offer advice and guidance where necessary. They have since
formed the White-Hats group, which provides a forum for discussing security issues with like-minded souls. This has
also proved to be an informative, friendly and helpful group."
Gareth Williams, IT Manager, Thompson Heath & Bond

"I have been impressed with the flexibility, knowledge and friendliness of First Base
Technologies. First Base Technologies are a firm that takes a real interest in the customer and they work hard to
ensure that, at the end of the day, we are not just left with a weighty report but that we have gained a greater level of
knowledge and understanding as well."
Andrew Rose, Information Security Manager, Allen & Overy
