The UK Defence sector is navigating a period of rapid transformation. A fast-changing geopolitical landscape – combined with growing cyber threats – means the demand for secure, resilient digital capabilities is now urgent. Budget pressures and evolving operational demands mean that forces must do more with existing assets while preparing for the future.
Roc supports Defence organisations with highly secure and resilient services across cloud, networking, automation and cyber security — all underpinned by trusted managed services. We are trusted by some of the UK’s most secure organisations to modernise critical infrastructure, strengthen cyber resilience, and unlock innovation, without compromising operational readiness, compliance or security.

Outdated systems limit operational effectiveness and introduce significant risk. Roc helps Defence clients modernise infrastructure with minimal disruption to optimise performance, strengthen security and ensure that legacy systems are integrated or upgraded to support future mission needs.
Defence organisations face sophisticated cyber attacks that threaten critical infrastructure and national security. Roc delivers end-to-end cyber resilience services, from proactive readiness assessments to 24/7 Security Operations Centre (SOC) support, helping Defence clients identify vulnerabilities, strengthen defences, and maintain continuous protection against evolving threats.
Talent shortages in security-cleared, specialist IT roles can delay or derail Defence projects. Roc provides SC and DV-cleared experts for short, medium, or long-term assignments, ensuring Defence clients have immediate access to trusted, capable resource to deliver projects at pace and maintain critical capabilities.
Defence organisations must maintain critical systems with zero downtime. Roc’s Managed Services ensure 24/7 monitoring, maintenance and rapid incident response across your IT estate. By underpinning all our solutions with robust managed support, we help Defence clients sustain operations, strengthen resilience, and focus on strategic priorities.
Manual processes slow decision-making and increase risk. Roc’s HyperAutomation services help Defence organisations automate workflows, integrate systems, and rapidly develop digital solutions using Low Code tools. We empower Defence teams to move faster, reduce human error, and focus resources on mission-critical activities.
Budget constraints demand smarter, more efficient technology investment. Roc’s strategic approach focuses on extracting maximum value from existing infrastructure, identifying cost-saving opportunities through cloud and network optimisation, and enabling Defence organisations to modernise in a way that balances operational imperatives with financial responsibility.
