Your Council Website: Safe, Secure, and Protected

At Active Council, we take your website's safety seriously. That's why every site we manage includes multiple layers of protection as standard—so your council can focus on serving the community, not worrying about cyber threats.

Protection Starts with Cloudflare

Every site runs through Cloudflare, a powerful shield that filters out dangerous traffic and helps keep your site online, even during malicious attacks. Think of it as a 24/7 security guard for your website.

Smarter Form Protection with Turnstile

We also use Turnstile, a smart system that checks whether a visitor is a person or a bot—without annoying captchas. It protects your forms from spam and abuse while keeping the experience smooth and friendly for genuine users.

Built-In Security Features

From the ground up, our websites are built with safety in mind. We include a range of behind-the-scenes protections that block suspicious activity, monitor for vulnerabilities, and keep your data secure.

Daily Backups and Disaster Recovery

Every site is backed up daily, so in the rare event something does go wrong, we can quickly restore everything to how it was—minimising disruption and keeping your council running smoothly.

Working with the National Cyber Security Centre

We don’t stop at just local protection. All our sites are submitted to the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) for monitoring and compliance, giving you assurance that your site meets national-level security standards.

Peace of Mind by Design

Security isn’t an add-on—it’s a core part of what we do. With Active Council, your website benefits from a complete, multi-layered defence strategy from day one. It's just another way we help your council stay modern, compliant, and protected.
