Thanks for updating the header! Incredible board for this little tiddler.. won't be a tiddler for that much longer I think :)

Incidentally, anyone trying to buy this stock with AJBell would have failed because they still had it as an ISDX stock (which they don't deal in). I have pointed out to them that CCS transferred to AIM in December and they have now updated their system.

...So you have no excuse not to buy now!

Sheer quality and experience of the board tells you this is heading for greatness.

[a_game] 05/3/2019 11:05

Great to see them continually winning business whilst completely under the radar. I continue to accumulate here. Monster business in the making imo.

Agreed, I took an entry position this morning, on open. Cyber Security is the hottest of hot sectors and it affects almost every industry with companies having to throw every increasing amounts of money at it. Tom came across exceptionally well on his interview with Justin Waite and seems like an honest, level headed and highly experienced hand. They have an impressive board and I particularly like their strategy of commercialising university IP. There seems to be momentum behind the firm with two contract wins in the last few weeks and they appear to want to de-risk by growing their portfolio up to about 8 different products. All in all there is a lot to like here and it certainly seemed worth taking a stake while they remains under the radar.

Looks like a very interesting company.

Operating in a red hot sector, with massive room for growth.

On the vox markets podcast today. Very impressive performance by Tom. Worth a listen!

Or it's a very large board for such a small company :)

[a_game] 19/2/2019 15:43

Added to my position here today. Will continue to research & accumulate whilst under the radar.

Surprised no one is talking about this stock yet. All it takes is a 1 minute search of the bod to see what an opportunity this is.

More great news this morning - revenue nicely building under the radar

[a_game] 11/2/2019 22:34

Solid trading update today - fantastic to see the high growth part of the biz (software sales) up 100% YoY. The best bit for me was the numerous sales wins recently... this is going to be a big story soon :)

[a_game] 29/1/2019 13:46

Nice one toffeeman. Going to get exciting here soon imo

[toffeeman] 27/1/2019 20:00

I am in via Guinness AIM EIS

[a_game] 27/1/2019 17:21

I'm glad this one remains quiet for now. Filling my boots slowly here :)

Expecting trading update early Feb so that may put it on the watchlists of the herd..

[a_game] 14/1/2019 14:17

Some of my buys helping move the share price up today. I've been very impressed with my research findings over the past few weeks.

Exciting little company backed by strong experienced leadership team and a tiny (<15%) free float.

[tini5] 14/1/2019 13:46

Nice move up today, managed to get in just before it went silly although had been watching since last week thanks to a friendly word in my ear.

Have been trying to compare offerings against CloudFlare who I think are pretty dominant in this space right now. As far as I can tell, CloudFlare don't do anything on-premises though which is where Crossword fill the gap.

Some big names on the leadership team as well and loving the university connections as that's a great source of research data, especially when their networks are a breeding ground for malicious code.

Very pleasing. I bought last year on Nex. A keeper.

Hello tim,let's hope this is a nice peaceful thread and doesn't descend the depths like some others.

[timbo003] 14/12/2018 09:03

I subscribed for a few shares in the most recent placing which accompanied the IPO on AIM (290p/share) and in the previous placing in March when they were listed on NEX (270p/share). The shares in both placings qualify for EIS tax reliefs, so HMRC will refund 30% of the purchase price (for eligble UK tax payers), it also it means that VCTs are likely to get involved (TR1s awaited).

I attended the AGM on May 30th (the only retail investor present) which was informative and posted up a few notes for the ShareSoc AGM forum:

[johnyee 7] 14/12/2018 08:08

Was on nex now listed on aim. Will it be an aim success or disaster?

[linhur] 18/10/2011 10:33

Good news. Board is doing its stuff. It looks like city expect 30p bid.At least that would make a doubling of pre-price bid.
