About

Soliman Consulting

A senior-led cyber security and device management consultancy. Twenty years of enterprise security experience, delivered to growing businesses at fixed prices.

Soliman Consulting Ltd designs and builds the security that organisations depend on: identity, devices, Microsoft 365 and networks. The same controls that protect a multi-billion-pound energy project or a city council are what keep a 50-person firm out of the news — and configured by someone who has done it at that scale, they take days rather than a programme.

What we do

Identity architecture across Okta and Microsoft Entra ID; endpoint management across Intune, Jamf and Kandji; MDM/UEM migration; Microsoft Defender XDR and Sentinel SIEM; Microsoft 365 hardening; Cyber Essentials preparation; and vCISO retainers. We separate one-off transformation work from recurring security ownership, and can work alongside your existing IT provider.

Founder & principal consultant

Ahmed Soliman is a senior cyber security architect with twenty years in enterprise IT and security. Before founding Soliman Consulting he held senior security and architecture roles across energy, local government, research and technology:

  • Energy. Senior cyber security and network engineer on one of Europe's largest LNG developments, designing the security architecture between the operator, the construction contractor and the control-system vendors.
  • Local government. Led endpoint and security modernisation for a UK city council: 1,000+ devices moved from imaging and on-premises management to Intune, Autopilot, Defender and Conditional Access.
  • Research. Built a locked-down virtual desktop environment on a dedicated identity directory for a national biomedical research organisation handling sensitive data.
  • Technology. IT systems architect for a UK engineering-technology company: infrastructure, security posture and audit remediation across a global workforce.
  • Enterprise IT. A decade in UK enterprise and managed-service environments before that — Active Directory, data centres, then Azure and Microsoft 365 from their first releases.

Why growing businesses

Almost every incident we see in a smaller company came down to a control that was already included in a licence they were paying for: MFA not enforced, a leaver's account still live, a laptop with no encryption, an admin account shared by three people. Most of what protects a large organisation is configuration, not budget. We bring that to businesses of 20 to 500 people because that is where the same mistakes cost people their livelihoods — and where one experienced person can fix it in days.

How we work

  • Fixed scope, fixed price. You know what you are getting and what it costs before we start.
  • Senior-led. No hand-off to a junior and no sales team.
  • Plain English. Reports your leadership can read; runbooks your IT partner can follow.
  • Remote-first. UK company working with businesses across the UK; on-site when it is worth it.
