Six directors. Named in full.
Six people who have all watched this happen to someone - a parent, a friend, a colleague caught out by a scam that should never have worked. That is why they are here. They want to push back.
Meet the board*Across all Red Flagg customers, for the full period the company has been operating. Figures as at October 2026.
Darryl Pickering
Founder & Managing Director
With people and awareness at our core, Red Flagg™ was created to help push back against the growing wave of scams, online threats and digital confusion affecting seniors, small businesses and not for profits.
After more than thirty years working across IT, leadership and governance, one thing became clear to me.
The people and organisations that often need support the most are too often the ones left without it - or simply cannot afford traditional cyber security services.
That never sat right with me.
So we built Red Flagg™ differently. A team you can call. People who explain things clearly. Practical support when something feels wrong, and protection designed around the people using it.
Backed By Experience

AI runs scams now. A Cyber Analyst still has to stop them.
Care Over Complexity
Cyber security should be something you understand - not something done to you.
People first
Almost every incident starts with a person.Technology matters. But people remain at the centre of almost every scam, phishing attempt and cyber incident. That is why awareness, support and human judgement sit at the heart of what we do.
No jargon
If a sentence needs a glossary, it is not finished yet.Our reports, emails, training and advice are written so the person reading them knows what happened, what it means and what to do next.
Prevention first
Cheaper to stop than to clean up.We would rather stop a scam at the front door than help clean it up afterwards. Training, awareness, a reporting culture and practical controls all work together to reduce risk before something goes wrong.
Human judgement
AI assists. A Cyber Analyst decides.AI helps our analysts move faster, spot patterns and investigate more efficiently. It does not make the final call.
A Name, Not A Queue

What Customers Say
Hope Network has worked with Red Flagg for the past year, and it's made a real difference to our team's cyber security awareness. The quarterly training, monthly phishing campaigns, dark web monitoring, and Microsoft 365 security improvements have given us much more confidence and protection across the whole staff group. Helpdesk support has also been responsive whenever we've needed it. Highly recommend them to any organisation wanting to lift their cyber security game.

Darryl and the team at Red Flagg have been so helpful and I wanted to say thank you. In today's world it's so easy to second-guess whether an email is genuine or a scam, and having someone I can trust to check things for me has been invaluable. It's rare to find great customer service these days. I genuinely appreciate everything Red Flagg have done and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone wanting help to stay safe online. Five stars from me!
Individual customerSenior Protection
We've had a great experience with Red Flagg. They help keep our business secure by protecting our email environment, monitoring for data breaches on the dark web, and providing regular cyber security awareness training for our staff. Their team is knowledgeable, responsive, and proactive. I'd happily recommend Red Flagg to any business looking to improve their cyber security.

Visible governance. Sensible security.
Our directors are named publicly because governance should be visible. Our Cyber Analysts are treated differently.
Publishing analyst names, photographs and contact details creates unnecessary information that can be used in targeted phishing and impersonation attacks. So we apply the same principle to ourselves that we recommend to customers: reduce unnecessary exposure.
- Our analysts are publicly identified by level and responsibility.
- Once you become a customer, you know who is looking after you. Customer reports identify the Cyber Analyst responsible for your service.
- Prospective customers can request analyst details privately - credentials, qualifications, LinkedIn profiles or references, before engaging with us.
