CSH Transport

CSH Transport partnered with CyberLab to enhance their cyber security, ensuring resilient operations through robust Microsoft 365 protection and achieving Cyber Essentials certification.

The Client

CSH Transport and Forwarding Ltd, a leading UK-based third-party logistics (3PL) specialist, operates from two strategic locations in Blackburn, Lancashire, and the Port of Goole, Yorkshire. With over 40 years of industry experience, CSH employs a skilled team dedicated to delivering exceptional transport and logistics solutions across the UK, Europe, and internationally.

Renowned for reliability, CSH offers a comprehensive range of services, including dry freight transport, liquid bulk haulage, hazardous (ADR) and non-hazardous chemical distribution, and secure warehousing. Their expertise in handling complex logistics ensures they meet the highest standards of safety and efficiency. As the logistics sector becomes increasingly digitalised, CSH recognises that safeguarding their operations against evolving cyber threats is a critical business priority. 

Implementing robust cyber security measures is essential to protect their advanced transport systems, sensitive client data, and maintain their reputation for operational excellence.

The Business Challenge

CSH initially partnered with CyberLab due to concerns around securing their Microsoft 365 (M365) environment. With the increasing complexity of cyber threats, they sought expert support to safeguard their sensitive data, streamline compliance, and strengthen their overall security posture. As a Security Support customer, CSH needed continuous protection, proactive monitoring, and expert guidance to stay ahead of evolving threats.

Additionally, CSH pursued Cyber Essentials certification with CyberLab, aiming to demonstrate their commitment to robust cyber security practices, enhance their defences against common threats, and reassure clients of their secure operations.

The Solution

CSH partnered with CyberLab to strengthen their cyber security posture and ensure the resilience of their operations. As part of this collaboration, CyberLab implemented ongoing Microsoft 365 Security Support, a part of CyberLab Control Services, managing CSH’s M365 environment to maintain optimal security. This included regular patching, device updates, and proactive monitoring to safeguard against vulnerabilities. By enforcing security policies and applying best practices, CyberLab ensured CSH’s systems remained protected against evolving threats.

In addition to M365 Security Support, CyberLab guided CSH through the Cyber Essentials certification process. This involved conducting a thorough review of their IT infrastructure, identifying vulnerabilities, and implementing essential security controls. The certification reinforced CSH’s commitment to robust data protection practices, helping them defend against common cyber threats while enhancing customer trust and meeting industry compliance standards. By combining expert M365 management with Cyber Essentials certification, CyberLab provided CSH with a comprehensive, multi-layered security solution tailored to their specific needs.

“Working with CyberLab has been a seamless and highly effective experience. Their expertise in securing our Microsoft 365 environment and guiding us through Cyber Essentials certification has significantly strengthened our overall security posture. The proactive monitoring and responsive support have given us the confidence to focus on delivering exceptional services to our customers, knowing that our systems are protected by a trusted partner.
