Critec Group Expands Operations to Data Centres and Broadens Support for NHS Sectors.

Critec Group, a leader in physical security consultancy, is proud to announce its strategic expansion into the data centre industry - a key component of the UK’s Critical National Infrastructure (CNI) - while simultaneously enhancing its capability to provide services and personnel to a wider range of NHS sectors.
Securing Data Centres:
The demand for data centres that are secure and resilient continues to rise. Critec has taken a proactive step to address this critical need. With its expertise in physical security consultancy and risk management, the company is now offering tailored solutions to safeguard data centres against threats.
Here's what Mark Hobday, Chief Executive at Critec Group has to say:
“At Critec, we have always been at the forefront of protecting critical infrastructure, and our decision to expand our services comes as a natural progression of our long-standing expertise in safeguarding high-stakes environments. Data centres are the nerve of modern business, and they need the kind of rock-solid security we have always delivered. It was time we brought our expertise directly to this critical space.”
To achieve this, services offered by Critec like Hostile Vehicle Mitigation (HVM) and blast mitigation assessments are critical for safeguarding high-risk environments and critical infrastructure, including data centres and NHS facilities, against potential vehicle-borne threats and explosive risks, one of the highest threats posed to these infrastructures.
Strengthening NHS Partnerships:
Critec has long been a trusted partner of the NHS, providing bespoke security consultancy services to healthcare facilities. Building on this foundation, the company is expanding its reach to include additional NHS sectors, ensuring that more facilities benefit from the high-calibre expertise and advanced security strategies.
“The NHS is the backbone of our healthcare system, and we’re honoured to play a role in ensuring its safety and resilience,” added Frank Doherty, Managing Director at Critec Group. “With every passing day, we are striving to continuously improve our offerings and expanding support that will help more facilities meet their security needs and continue their vital work to the communities without disruption.”
