Liverpool's Plain-English Online Safety Expert

The Story Behind Kells Security Solutions

From British Army sniper to certified cybersecurity specialist, here's why I started this business, and why I want to help you and your family stay safe online.

Who I Am

I'm Jay Kells, and Kells Security Solutions is a one-person operation. No call centre, no jargon-spouting sales team, just me, using what I've learned the hard way to help you stay safe online.

Before this, I served in the British Army as a sniper, including a tour in Iraq where I was seriously wounded. I was medically discharged and rebuilt my career from the ground up, eventually working as a freelance copywriter.

Then I got hacked myself. My Facebook account was stolen and money disappeared from my bank, the exact sinking feeling I now help other people avoid. That was the turning point. I studied cybersecurity flat out, completing a two-year qualification in nine months, and set up Kells Security Solutions to teach ordinary people plain-English online safety, no tech degree required.

I break down confusing cybersecurity jargon into bite-sized, plain-English guides. Whether you're trying to dodge phishing scams, lock down your passwords, or browse safely on public Wi-Fi, I've got your back.
