  • Threat Evolution Achieves Cyber Essentials Certification

Magenta Security Services celebrated its 30th anniversary by achieving a significant accolade at the Security & Fire Excellence Awards, where it was named the Security & Fire Sustainability Champion for the third consecutive year. These awards are esteemed within the industry, recognizing outstanding achievements in performance, innovation, and best practices across security and fire sectors.

The Sustainability Champion award specifically acknowledges entities that exhibit leadership in environmental responsibility and show a dedication to sustainable operations. Magenta first earned this title in 2023, retained it in 2024, and now clinches a third win in 2025.

Security and Sustainability

"Winning the Sustainability Champion title for the third year in a row, while celebrating 30 years in business, is an incredible milestone for everyone at Magenta," stated Abbey Petkar, Managing Director of Magenta Security Services.

"From the very beginning, we believed that security and sustainability must go hand in hand. This recognition shows that our approach is working for our clients, our people, and the planet."

Magenta’s Sustainability Journey

Commitment to sustainability is a fundamental aspect of Magenta's three-decade presence in the industry

This commitment to sustainability is a fundamental aspect of Magenta's three-decade presence in the industry. It was among the early security service providers to certify to ISO 14001, embedding environmental management at its core rather than as an afterthought.

This disciplined approach enabled Magenta to achieve carbon-zero status in 2022, outpacing its 2025 target without the use of offsetting. Initiatives include an all-electric vehicle fleet powered by on-site solar charging facilities, a complete transition to renewable electricity, comprehensive energy-efficiency enhancements, and a paperless office saving over 150 trees annually.

Cyber Essentials Certification

Recognizing the convergence of physical and digital risks and sustainability, Magenta has invested in Threat Evolution, its specialized cyber security training and consulting division.

Threat Evolution aids clients with Cyber Essentials certification, penetration testing, vulnerability scanning, and customized cyber awareness training, reinforcing Magenta’s commitment to resilience, governance, and data protection.

Magenta’s Approach

Magenta aligns its retail triumphs with social grants by supporting Police Community Clubs locally

Transparency is integral to Magenta’s operational strategy. The company discloses its emissions data through the Carbon Database Initiative (CaDI), encouraging external scrutiny and sharing insights on reducing emissions, such as integrating electric vehicles, managing energy in older infrastructure, and eliminating paper from security processes.

Furthermore, Magenta aligns its commercial achievements with social contributions by supporting Police Community Clubs locally and sponsoring children globally.

Commitment to Environmental Responsibility

Abbey Petkar emphasized, "Sustainability is not a project for us. It is how Magenta works, from the vehicles we drive and the energy we use to the way we support communities and help clients improve their own environmental performance."

"To receive this award again, in our 30th year, is both a proud moment and a powerful motivation to keep raising the bar."

Magenta Security Services marked its 30th anniversary in style last night at the Security & Fire Excellence Awards, where the company was named Security & Fire Sustainability Champion for the third year running.

The Security & Fire Awards for Excellence are recognized across the sector as a benchmark for outstanding performance, innovation and best practice in both security and fire. The Sustainability Champion category honors organizations that demonstrate leadership in environmental responsibility and long-term commitment to sustainable operations. Magenta first secured the title in 2023 and retained it in 2024 before completing the hat trick in 2025.

Security and sustainability

“Winning the Sustainability Champion title for the third year in a row, while celebrating 30 years in business, is an incredible milestone for everyone at Magenta,” said Abbey Petkar, Managing Director of Magenta Security Services.

“From the very beginning we believed that security and sustainability must go hand in hand. This recognition shows that our approach is working for our clients, our people and the planet.”

Magenta’s sustainability journey

Magenta’s sustainability journey is woven through its three decades in business. The company was one of the first security providers to certify to ISO 14001, embedding environmental management into its core operations rather than treating it as an add-on. That discipline enabled Magenta to reach carbon zero status in 2022, three years ahead of its public 2025 target and without relying on offsetting.

Key measures include a fully electric fleet supported by on-site solar charging at its headquarters, a switch to 100 per cent renewable electricity across its estate, deep energy-efficiency upgrades and a fully paperless office environment that saves more than 150 trees each year.

Cyber Essentials certification

Recognising that modern risk and sustainability span both physical and digital domains, Magenta has also invested in Threat Evolution, its dedicated cyber security training and consulting arm.

Threat Evolution supports clients with Cyber Essentials certification, penetration testing, vulnerability scanning and tailored cyber awareness training, extending Magenta’s commitment to resilience, governance and data protection. 

Magenta’s approach

Transparency is another cornerstone of Magenta’s approach. The company publishes its emissions data through the Carbon Database Initiative (CaDI), inviting scrutiny and sharing practical lessons on topics such as phasing electric vehicles, mapping energy use in older buildings and designing out paper from guarding processes.

Magenta also supports Police Community Clubs locally and sponsors children internationally, aligning commercial success with long-term social value. 

Own environmental performance

Abbey Petkar added, “Sustainability is not a project for us. It is how Magenta works, from the vehicles we drive and the energy we use to the way we support communities and help clients improve their own environmental performance."

"To receive this award again, in our 30th year, is both a proud moment and a powerful motivation to keep raising the bar.”
